I just started riding a wakeboard like 3 weeks ago. Should both fins have the big part facing inward? and if the front fin has the big part facing inward and the back foot fin has the big part facing outward does it make it any different if you are not riding switched?? i kno my language is confusing, sorry guys. Confused Thanx

colefooter, if you dont know which way to put the fins on i think having them on will help you get the feel. then when you get into surface tricks take them off. dont feel bad about having them wrong i saw a kid put all but one fin the right way on a four fin board and my dad was fixing my bindings and put my left binding on the right side and right binding on the left side.
