got a new board last week and took it out a few days ago. I got up after a few tries, but was havin trouble stayin up cuz my board kept slippin around and at one point my bindings were actually facing the boat before i got it under somewhat control. Later when i was adjusting my bindings in the boat , i realized i had totally forgotten to screw the fins in before i left the house. I'm guessin thats what was screwin me up. Confused

It came with 2 fins, one for the front and one for the back, but i dunno if i should put both on, or just the one under the back foot. I asked one of my buddies that boards and he said he started with both fins on. I'm not sure if it kind of depends on your skill level or what.

thanks guys

Use both fins because you want to learn to ride switch soon.

No no no don't listen to Nephilim-777 he is a NooB and everything he says is absolute crap.

What he was trying to say was use both fins because you want to learn to ride switch soon. Laughing Laughing

Really though you will want your fins on, it will make tracking on the water so much easier. It will probably prevent alot of your slipping out also.
