    I've never seen any O'Fishl boxes that looked like that....the boards I've had with O'Fishl boxes, the boxes looked exactly like a Futures box only without the set screw....and full of screwdriver marks because the "Z-Clips" made it half impossible to get the fin out.

    honestly can't remember the last time I saw them. remember seeing a guy in PR in the 90's run aground on the reef at middles and came up with no fins and feet full of urchin quills. my boards all still had fins glassed on.

    My LB HAD O'Fishl sidebites until the good people at Natural Art replaced them with Futures!!!

    OP pics don't look like my old OFishls.

    Indeed! I almost typed the 15 ha. I made the drive a year and a half ago, and I'd be lieing if I said I knew how to get around southern California. I just got back from a week in San Clemente (ladyfriend-family-visit turned mini surf trip). Thank jeebus for GPS.
