duck duck duck... there are 3-4 different types of fibreglass fins being used in all sorts of comps in europe particularly by the french and belgians which have only rubber strips around the edges to protect against cuts.

they were also being used in sheffield. get with the times my friend! i think you guys need to have some enterprising frenchman send some samples your way... theres a big market in the states for fins too, i'm surprised it hasn't happened so far.

they may well be illegal according to the letter of the law... they may not be. but the point is, everyone is using them already, and with no problems as yet. majority rules and i'd bet if they are illegal, it wont be for long.
