Josh, always the salesmen. The Parks is only a great board with the .7" all the way around. With the other it is way to grippy

Subjekt fins won't fit a Parks unless you drill the board. No I have never rode the Collin CDI, but if the .7" A wings are grippier than I like the 1" CDI would be worse.

Just relaying what I have heard from a few people. And yeah, I try to get people to check out products I think are cool.

I've riden the board with 1.3's and .7's, the 1.3's are WAY too grippy. 0.7's feel a lot better. I'd like to try it out with the CDI's soon.

Hey Todd were you at Skibowl last night? Just wondering I heard someone in the bar say they were from Battle Ground. Anyway, CDI fins ride quite different than the A wing series. The base length is shorter and they are little smoother for transitioning on surface tricks due to to the blending feature where they match up with the board. I am not trying to push our fins on anyone I am just telling you what we have found from our research and testing. Let's go out and ride when the rain stops and I will let our fins sell themselves.

Hmm,
I wonder if they were in the bar at the same time as us talking about you. . . .
Were your ears burning?

P.S. I would still go with Collin Wright CDI fins, because they are hella cool.

I talked to Collin about the fin last time I saw him and it sounded good. I haven't heard much about his new boards coming out, are you going to be his hardware supplier?
