Posted: Jun 29, 2006 7:25 am Post subject: Which board has the most premolded fins????? |
|
|
Hello.
I am starting to hit kickers and have been riding finless so that i do not brake any of the pvc pipe that i used to make the kicker with. I am riding a LF team board and really miss all the fins. What board out there has the most or largest premolded fins??? i feel,and correct me if i am wrong that the premolded fins will not do as much if any damage to the pvc as the screw on fins would. [b][b]Thanks for your time[/b][/b], Andy www.windwakewater.com |

| seriously man, just rock it finless. learn to EDGE and not rely on your edges. you will become a much better rider whenyou learn to edge and no use your fins. |

| thanks for the reply, it just feels so loose without the fins and when we go turn around so that we can hit the kicker again i want to throw down and i feel like i am going to just slide out. |

| suck it up and go finless. but why worry about the pvc pipe?? i'd worry about breaking the screw-in fins. |

I do not want to break the pvc cause i built the kicker and want to take care of it. |

| My Premier has some serious molded in fins. I ride finless all the time because they are more than enough. |

Dude guys give him some slack! Have any of u rode a LF Team finless? That board has almost zero channels/molded fins/etc. I cant imagine that without fins, might as well ride a bananna peel across the water.
BTW: The LF substance has good molded fins and is beaaautttifffulll finless. (Lots of riders will tell you its the best board ever finless...that is until a year ago, the watson is all the rage now, it was the substance....great board) |

ridden both the new watson and last years premier, A LOT...i'm no pro or nothin, not even cloose, but if you're lookin for a super dope board to ride finless you can't go wrong with either....the Watson is SICK...prolly the best board i've ever ridden...awesome finless...tons of crazy speed n pop...very agressive....and my Premiere is super dope as well...very predictable and stable w/o fins tons of pop...rides like a cadillac...
like i said i claim to be no pro n those are just my opinions on two of the boards i've ridden finless...
have fun my dude... |

| I hit kickers with my substance and you can barely tell that you're finless. And watson rode a substance before he got his own model and the designs are very similiar. |

CWB Prodigy from a few years ago has 3 molded fins on each end, so basically the center fin isnt removable. you can probably find one cheap too. _________________ "Some are born great, some achieve greatness, and some have greatness thrust upon them"
