Or not so dawn patrol - I woke up late and we left even later because we took some time to switch out the fins on our surfboards. I opted for a Greenough Stage 6 and Marlon went for a smaller banana fin. Marlon was not happy with the water quality - it was noticeably acrid and there were protein bubbles everywhere - so we only stayed for about 45 minutes.
This Stage 6 seemed really sticky to me - not as fluid as the 8.5" flex fin I've been using for a while now.
I went ahead and swapped out the Stage 6 for a 9.5" Stage 4C. More of a conventional fin, with more surface area than the flex fin - we'll see next time if this one feels better than the flex.
