I guess this is kind of a spinoff of the Too tight vs. Too loose discussion...

Over the years I havent deviated too much when it comes to the fins setups on my larger boards. They are always further back than my regular boards from 1/4 to 1/2" back. Just wondering if anyone has 2 cents to put into this one.

I am considering not moving my fins back on my next big board(s) seeing as I really cant turn too well them once I get comfortable with the conditions.

Thanks

How's it Albert?

I don't reckon you should move them back..in fact, quite often in bigger boards I tend to move them forward.

This also has the advantage of maintaining adequate width between both rail fins. Bigger boards (usually) have narrower tails and by moving fins 'back' they will naturally come closer together..which I'm not sure is a good thing.

PS

Steen rang me yesterday..Simon's vid to premiere in Wollongong next Friday night?
