Have you ever tried turbotunnel fins? http://www.turbotunnel.com/

How do you like them. Do you think it´s of any effort to surf them on a shortboard: let´s say something like a 6´2" high preformanc board or a 5´8" three fin fish? or even better on a 6´6" semi gun or would they dramatically decrease the maneuverability?

Cheyne ?

I think I saw you in a video or two with one…

I’d be interested to hear your memories of the similar design idea you were riding. Was I right in thinking you rode a ‘circular’ fin in hawaii ?

[ of course, you know who else may be riding one in another southern hemisphere country as we ‘speak’ .]

‘surfingdude’, if no-one else replies to this, you may like to post this question on the design forum at : -

I thought they were longboard fins!

i’ve got one that i use on a ten foot longboard and I would have to say that I wouldn’t recomend buying one. They are, IMHO, not terrible, but for the price they’re charging you could buy a couple of really rocking fins. I just couldn’t say that I’d be likely to buy another. If you can try one for yourself and see what you think.
