So I have looked,searched and learned a bunch already especially with the latest thread on the same question
( http://www2.swaylocks.com/forums/single-fin-placement-help-7-0 ) on where to place my fin/fin box.
Details are: Board Length: 8’6" tail:12.5" S-deck style board to be similar to an Andreini “Serena” aka Vaquero Pintail.
I have made two fins one being an 8" vintage style point break fin and the other is a 9" LFlex template. The marks on the fin are 20%, 25% and 30%.
Anyways,
my tail is thin and the farthest back that I can place the finbox
without punching through the other side is 8". Going by what I have
already learned I should set the fin box anywhere between 10" to 12" up
from the tail.
My question…is 10"-12" the correct placement for
the fin box? It honestly seems too far up from the tail from a visual
aspect. Pics are attached…
