Baller Gloersen Posted March 10, 2017 Baller Share Posted March 10, 2017 @Horton - both 67's? the tail of the new GT appears a bit wider? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Horton Posted March 10, 2017 Author Administrators Share Posted March 10, 2017 @Gloersen optical delusion.

Baller ForrestGump Posted March 11, 2017 Baller Share Posted March 11, 2017 I might consider a GT now! That old fin box made me want to beat myself in the head with a hammer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller Gloersen Posted March 11, 2017 Baller Share Posted March 11, 2017 @Horton - the new GT in that photo above appears at least to have a beveled top edge (compared to the 90° top edge of the prior GT) above the already thin sidewall through the tail. Will that give it a little tail lift through the turn comparatively? The topside view of your photo sure makes it appear so (the angular deflection of the graphics along a bevel above the sidewall), and doesn't appear to be the same as the GT tail pictured below ('16 GT with '17 graphics?) ride it and tell us about it.

Baller DanE Posted March 11, 2017 Baller Share Posted March 11, 2017 @Horton Looks like the new fin box has some shims on each side of the fin? What about the shims on the center clamp screw, looks like one shim is missing and the screw clamps on to nothing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller JAG Posted March 11, 2017 Baller Share Posted March 11, 2017 the next obvious question, "will the new fin box fit my old F1?" I'm having a hard time with the mallet, getting 2.499999999" depth, which I know will get me into 41 off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Horton Posted March 11, 2017 Author Administrators Share Posted March 11, 2017 @Gloersen The bottom surface area is identical to the old GT. That ski isn't even areview ski. It is just a sample. The point is they finally got a new fin box.

Administrators Horton Posted March 11, 2017 Author Administrators Share Posted March 11, 2017 @DanE that is another optical delusion. What you're seeing there are just reflections. There are no shims.

Baller jjackkrash Posted March 11, 2017 Baller Share Posted March 11, 2017 Sweet! Shout out to H20Proshop for getting me a 2017 "blem" (I still can't find the blem) with the new fin box for the same price as a left over 16. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
