I find myself making more and more of them. So many choices in fin placement, fin size, fin type. Here’s a couple of recent ones, a 6’3" with controller quad futures, and a 6’6" roundtail quad with fcs fusions…8 degree fronts and 4 degree rears (although it doesn’t look like it in the photo, I had center 0 degree boxes in at the time). I’ve also been riding a quad gun (8’3") for a couple weeks and it has worked well in our recent good size WNW swells…
I’ve been going 6 and 4 degrees splay (cant). How does using 8 degrees on the fronts affect performance - looser more pivot-y I’m guessing? I noticed FGH had a lot of 9 degree plugs in stock, I was thinking they were just for thruster setups.
Yup I normally hover more around the 6 and 4 degree cants for quads. this particular board, the whole fin cluster is moved rearward, and a litle extra lift from the higher cant front fins is helpful because the board is on the small/thin side (for me, anyway). I typically only use the 9 degree fusion box for canards on twinzers…
