Posted: Sep 30, 2005 2:16 pm Post subject: HL Premier '05 FINLESS???? |
|
|
Hey guys, i know this MAY have been posted, but anyways...
I have a HL premier '05 136, today i was out on the lake, did a 180 when i wanted to do a surface 180 i faceplanted soooooo bad. And that made me think, should i take away the middle A wing fin???
What r the pro and cons of riding with fins?
and the pro and cons of riding finless??
Today i saw the biggest wake that my boat did, man it was cool, we had 7 big guys in the boat plus 250lbs of ballast.
Also i did a back roll and i i dont know how i hit that my noses ened up bleeding, that never happened b4....
Thanks guys!! _________________ Life's short, Go wakeboarding. |

| falling on a surface 180 has nothing to do with the fin. however the board is meant to be ridden finless. the middle fin doesnt really do much of anything imo. |

| ive taken some good diggers on the premier i know what you are talking about. also i think the molded fins are bigger than the center fin, its just the center fin is set back further so if you ride tail heavy it will give you a little extra grip. |

| a premier should not be ridden with the fins in the center |

| ive demoed the premier a few times (it is going 2 be my next board) and rode it finless everytime. i dont think there are any cons riding this board finless, its all good imo. |

Might try pulling up your toes a little to help get the fins off the water...like when you do a butter slide.

| i used to ride a premier and i thought the center fin helped out a lot in rougher water and if it was calm i didn't notice it one way or the other |
