You guys do know not everyone rides finless right? If no one needed them, board companies wouldn't sell them.

mr robotto, My mama would die if she thought I was talking to people like that. I suppose it's just how I was raised. I expected more from a Southern boy. I bet ole Billy wears his hat to the dinner table too.

Enigma, FenderBass37, Do I need fins? No. Have I ridden my new skate anyway without them? Yes. But I prefer to ride with them, the same as I prefer to ride at a speed of 22, the same as I prefer Jack Daniels over Jim Beam. What's it to ya? Wink

My problem is that 1) I paid for something and did not recieve it. 2) Customer service sucked.

TAD, they also make training wheels for bikes. But I have progressed past them.

My problem is 1) you are blowing this way out of proportion.

The fins come packaged with the board, if they werent with the board, it is probably the manufacturer's fault, not BW's.

If they only sent you the fins, and no board, I could understand your outrage.

I know, you would think they would be good enough not to use them.

I ride a 4 trac with all fins in. What are you talking about.

Yes the fins are supposed to be in the package. Well......who had the package last? Unless I'm an idiot, I'm pretty sure Buywake sent her the board. Being a business, I'm almost positive you're supposed to check the product before it goes out. That's like selling someone a car without seatbelts. Not everyone uses them, they are preference, but they should still come with the vehicle. It was his fault the fins weren't included and he should have dealt with it in a different manner.

PS. Referring fins as training wheels is one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever heard. At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this room is now dumber for having listened to it. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul.

'Last' meaning before the customer, not before the thread started. Rolling Eyes

. Unless she opened the package during a snowstorm atop Mt. Everest, it's highly doubtful she lost them.

Cowgirl, I believe you. Very Happy
