Very interesting article on the effects of whale flippers bumps. Google "tubercle effect" and read the GIZMAG article on this. No suprise to me this would work tho, think golf balls and the casting distance on a hammered finished spoon. :idea: :)

I wonder if bumps made from (silicon?) could be glued/moulded onto Turbo Fins.

What sticks to the fins?
