Dear Surfco,

I am incredibly grateful for all of your products.  I first tried your Pro Teck fins after a serious injury to my side from normal fins, leaving a tear about 6" long, and causing a couple bruised ribs.  At the time of the accident, I was wearing a 5mm wetsuit, surfing in sub 50 degree water on the Oregon coast.  To this day, I am not quite sure how it happened, but I do clearly remember feeling my centerfin pierce through my wetsuit and side, and the cold water rushing into my suit.  The tear through my suit was so large I could put my whole hand through to my body.  I was afraid I had pierced some vital organs.  Luckily, I had not, though most likely would have had the wetsuit not taken most of the damage.  Of course I was nervous to get back in the water after that healed.  Luckily I discovered Pro Teck fins, which I have used every time I surf since that day.  On longboards or shortboards, Pro Teck fins have not only allowed me to feel more confident in any conditions, but they have allowed me to be a fairly competitive surfer in southern California.  I love how smoothly they ride, and could never go back to regular fins!


After all my success with Pro Teck fins, I started to use your Tail Guards and Nose Guards on all my boards.  I first found them useful for protecting my boards while resting on the ground, but recently they also saved me!  On a big day, I resurfaced, protecting my head and face, but my board shot under my arms into my jaw.  At first it felt like I broke my jaw, but thanks to the longboard Nose Guard, it did not break the skin, and I had very minimal bruising.


I don't know what I would do without your products especially now that I'm a mother.  They are TRULY life-saving!


Thanks Again!


Sincerely,
Holly Stroschine
