|
|
i had recently bought a premier 135 for cheap because it is only able to switch the fin in two positions instead of three, I am new to the sport, and
I would like to know waht this means and how it would affect my performance |

Could you explain a little more. Do you have the board, or did you order it online, 2 positions instead of 3?
If it was me, I'd just ride it finless, and be done with it. _________________ "If you're gonna be dumb, you gotta be tough..." |

well I have a premier 135 and I didnt know that u could put the fins in different positions ... dont see how that would change ne thing ... just go finless like Tyson said .. the molded in .8" fins are all u need _________________ "Worrying is like a rocking chair ... gives you something to do but it doesnt get you any where" Van Wilder |

maybe he is talking about the board having 2 fins all together instead of three like they put the wrong graphics on the wrong board. that could be why its so cheap
like for example premier graphics on lets say a tfd board. |

| I think the Premier center fins has two sets of threaded holes so you can move them up for a looser ride or move em back for a grippier ride. Pure speculation. For some reason that sounds familiar though. Oh hell he's confused and now so are we! |

| stephan it has 2 fin holes but the fins have 2 screws so it still only lines up 1 way unless you only put 1 screw in |

| The 02' Premier had the ability to move the fins into different positions, and so did the Byerly. Stephan has it right to an extent, just the wrong year..... |

Doesn't sound like you bought an 03 Premier. I have an 03 Premier 135 and you can change or remove the center fin only.
If you misphrased your question, I think your answer is that a larger fin in the center position will have a gripier feel and a smaller fin or no fin will be looser. _________________ If it doesn't fit, put some lube on it!!! |
