Fin base doesn't fit perfectly into the board's fin plugs, leaving a gap.
Common root cause: Dimensional variation between board plugs and fin base, or sand/salt buildup in the slots.
Step-by-step solution: 1. Carefully clean the board's fin plugs and the fin base with fresh water and a soft cloth. 2. Re-insert, applying firm, even pressure.
