    The template looks almost identical to my 1968 (#080), but mine doesn't have the v-bottom.

    Stage 3 fin.

    The Stage 1 was much shorter, as Morey-Pope was limited to the length of the mold they could use at that time...so GG had to make it a shorter, stockier shape than he wanted.

    By the time Stage 3 came around, they were able to mold deeper fins.

    Stage 3 is the most underrated/forgotten mass produced fin of all time. Fantastic on longboards! Transformed whip-turning noseriders into rail carving pocket machines with the turn of two screws.

    PG thanks for that, the bigger Stage 3 has always confused me as I thought the bigger one was first one in production.
