I just got my Liquid Force Trip and it has quad fins, but then it came with 2 removable fins.. Should i put them on.. Also without them on, is it normal for there to be 2 holes on each side of the bored, where the bolts (maybe screws I forget) would go?

I took my fins off last weekend and love it. Control is something you have to get used to again. I didn't think my fins made that much of a difference. It is alot easier to ride switch and once I got a feel for it, I actually liked it a little more, It felt like I was able to play around a little easier....edging is a little different but once you get the hang of it, you may like it more...

I wouldn't put them on. If I had known then what I know now, I would have NEVER EVER ridden with middle fins at all.

I agree we took our fins out last week...LOVE IT! I think it's easier to edge. I was also able to do a surface 180...crashed everytime because I don't have riding switch down yet but hey I was able to do it! I won't ride with fins again! Mr. Green
