Re: Soft carbon blades
Are you using footpockets with tendon rails? If so, I suggest cutting the tendons off. Leave them just long enough to overlap the fin rails by about 1/2" or so (the mounting rails that are glued to the blades. Then put a spot of super glue to hold the nubby tendons to the fin rails.
Don't be afraid. My experience is that high-end blades like C4, DiveR, and Moana are plenty strong enough to do without foot pocket tendons.
