Good call on TVS to do the fix. I've heard that can be an issue with twins, fins blowing out on bottom turn. Some say two plug FCS better as there is less overall stress vs. one box? Not a twin guy yet thou, just what I have heard. I always did my fin box repairs with fin in and tape to hold in place, even made a little tool to measure the cant. Still didn't get it right. DIY not always best option.
I believe the kid (prob not so much anymore) that used to work at the iconic US Outdoor Store, which seems to be gone post riots and downtown apocalypse, now works for El Bordo as a production glasser or so I heard a while back. Also saw on an Insta lurk Brodo was doing Arts boards now. Wonder if that will affect NP's stellar turnaround time I experienced recently. Was kinda thinking of getting him to cook me up a new stap/gun, a tuned pin tail version of his El Patron template.
