FINS?

  1. do you foil them yourselves? 2) do you prefer fix boxes or glassed on? 3) do you experiment much with placement?

I prefer fin boxes, FCS for thruster set up, Fins Ulimited long box for single fin or 2+1 set up. With the Fins Unlimited box you have some leeway to forward or back. I have my 9 1/2" standard Harbour fin up somewhere around 7" on my longboard and thats fine for me. I have added a little fin around 2"x2" in front of that fin (kinda like a C-5 for a single fin) and it seems to add a little punch on the turns and the board might be going a little faster. It hasn’t made the board ride any worse.

RIGHT ON DT! The set-up you are using was invented by Bill Fury over 30 years ago!Bill was the owner/founder of Plastic Fantastic in the 70s.He would be proud to hear that you have kept his creation alive&kickin’.A BIG AHHHLOOOHA BRA,TO YOU!
