    They must have sold a TON of those boards, then. The gal there told me they had very deep stock of them.

    Good advise. Two weeks at Lake Powell did it in. That board had no chance staying out of the sun. My Inland Surfer held up. The IS was even in the sun more since we rode it so litlle with the new board. I'll have to protect the new one more. Thanks for the tip!

    Interesting. My black one - which you'd think would be even more sensitive to heat - lives in the pocket on top of my bimini cover in the blazing 100F heat and so far hasn't shown any problems. I must say since seeing that photo, though, I've been faster to put it safely away in the boathouse.

    I contacted Liquidation Sports about the warranty. I sent them the same picture I posted earlier. My warranty was accepted by Ronix and they required me to writ the RA# on the board in Sharpie over the warranty label. Then drill two hole in the same area. Did that today and sent in the picture as requested. We will see what happens next?

    I also stopped by the used surfboard shop near me. They had new PC7 fins, but no used ones. The new ones were cheaper than most other places @ $70 for the thruster set. When they do have used ones, they are usually half that @ $35.

    I've gotten plenty of use out of mine the last 2 weeks. Messed around with fins a little bit but it seems to work decent with everything we've tried. Today i used it with 4 fins. Two bigger ones on the outside and two smaller to the inside. I thought it worked pretty good but a bit too locked in. I'll probably try the three fin setup like others here have said works good. I'm pretty happy with the board so far. Everyone who has tried it so far has liked it. I spent a few days last week at Lake Koocanusa in BC and after a few days it was the only board being used.

    If you don't get them by the Meade reunion, you are more than welcome to borrow mine.

    I'll stop in tomorrow or tuesday. Thanks! I know right where that is. I was hoping to find a friend that would let me try them for a day.
    There is a set on CL nearby for $60.

    I agree. I am trying to find a set of FCS PC7 as suggested by Stingreye. After all I live in one of the major ocean surf cities in the world. I should be able to round some up?

    I presume it was an upgrade from my original black version to your later orange one. Just giving you more options.

    I read that other thread. Sounds like the people who got good ones are having the same experience as we are - that the board is fast, locks in like it's on rails, super lightweight, etc. For fun, we tried it with zero fins a couple of days ago; super squirrely like you'd expect but you could get some lock from the side rails. Experienced riders had fun, less experienced riders had a different kind of fun. Then we went to 4, and then 3, fins as described above. We're sticking with 3 fins for now, though I might try swapping in some of the longer fins.

    Looks like others at Malibu Crew had the same de-lamination problem with this board. The guy went back to the dealer, as you recommended.
