I do.agree on that. I use large fins in all.my boards,as they are quite wide compared to most. On my new midlonger I asked sdr what fins should I use. I thought my am2 would be a treat. Sdr was Nah mate too much fin and told me to.go a medium size as i have a narrow tail with a double flyer. No wonder why NC likes the del

They have worked a treat so.far yeeeeeoooooooooow

I also like using the same fin these days for consistency

New board same fins.

Ha. I reckon after a while you get feel for what you need with a board

yes i reckon try the nano thruster style


Went for a nice mountain bike ride up in the hills this morning with the onshore wind not too inviting at the beach. Got back just after lunch and the wind happened to have swung to the north so I headed to one of my fav spots and it turned it on for a few hours of absolute magic with barely anyone out. Surfed a peak with one other for the majority of the session. 3ft hollow wedges with some nicely shaped walls on the sets.

Big thanks to LL for the fin recommendation. I could not believe the difference in performance with the AM2s in her. Took a few waves to get the feel of being on a thruster again - you really need to keep her moving. The board just felt electric in comparison to my previous quad setup. Loads of acceleration and power off the top. Probably had one of the best surfs I have had in a few years. It was just incredible. Big thanks to the fin master LL for once more being right on the money - as was the master fin apprentice Chrispy I could not get over the amount of difference in performance with the diff fin setup. I liked the Nano a lot before hand but its fair to say I just love it now. It just seemed to accelerate out of the turns. Turning arc was noticeably greater but with the extra speed heading into them its a nice problem to have. Had so much fun driving out of top turns and picking up speed. Heaven. As LL would say this fin setup is a keeper !
