People keep "borrowing" my bamboo Bonzer fins and not returning them
so this one is mine, mine, mine.

    It is difficult not to notice that my own 101 Bonzer fin is making a high-pitched vibrant noise in good hollow waves. I have never noticed that with my fiberglass bonzer fin. It is annoying although I have not sure if it really affects performance. What should I do? Sand it to thin out the base of the fin?

    Pierre, run some 220 grit sandpaper along all the trailing edges of your fins. The slightest bump or flat spot can cause a humm. If the rear foil feels too thick then sanding that down will help, but be mindful not to make it razor sharp.

    Mine doesn’t make that sound, it may be the water making ‘tip vortice’s’ as the water moves off the tip and tailing edge. All in all its just the sign of a truly human made product, a one of a kind.. walrus

    My fins don’t hum. How do I add hummage?

    Thanks JP,
    I will sand my fin. Otherwise, this 5’11 Campbell is a killer as you anticipated it.

    JP,

    My Bonzer fins whisper weird shit to me most of the day: stuff like “If life gives you lemons, make hand grenades.”

    Even when I’m nowhere near the board.

    How do I make this stop?

    A fin returner = a real friend

    A fin returner who, along with the fins, leaves you stupid prank gifts that you must somehow temporarily fit into your 400-square-foot living space: an even better friend

    That colon should be an equal sign: : = =?

    The fins just whispered this to me: Is a colon really a colon or a pea and its shadow?

    The fins just suggested that you ask Bob Barfmop. Apparently he knows.
