Fin or No Fin

I have been out a couple times so far, and i love it. I have been riding with the fins on my 06 CWB Sol. But i was wondering if it would be better to ride without fins? Would it make for a smoother landing or what

fins help with control, riding without a center fin makes the board want to spin so it takes some gettig used to. i ride with a center fin but took it out the other day. not sure if it would make a smootheer landing thought.

Riding without fins help you from spinning too early off the wake...(words from wakeboarding mag and shaun murray

going with no fins will also help you learn to edge better.

i've been ridin a month now and have the center fins on my board and its hard for me to do surface tricks... i was thinking of removing them but then again i was wondering... if i replace them with shorter fins the size of the molded ones on my board will that still give me some stability as well as being somewhat loose.. i know this probably makes no sense... but i had to ask
