Usually ride finless, depending on water condition and also because my last board had molded fins. I rode finless because those big a$$ steak knife fins that came with it would make OJ a little scared. Really curious about the new setup though.

The vault fins are only a half inch deep and it has channeled moulded fins and kind of a V thing going on on each end. Probably gonna ride it finless too because it looks like it will track nicely.

I prefer the loose ride though. It's just so nice to throw in a nice little backside lip every now and again.
