Trim Tab R&D....... I have been testing the durability of the trim tabs as much as possible over the past days and "unfortunately" the tabs continue to be ripped off the board. I have tried various bonding methods and every one has failed so far....(EATING MY WORDS)........ the forces on impact and when turning on the wave face are far more immense than what I imagined. The actual 'reed' is not breaking......its just the bond to the board that separates.
