Whats the point FCS arent the best for kitesurfing as they snap so easily the redex and other systems work better for the kitesurfboard

If you could point me to an adapter for the red x system or others then I'd be happy to go with that. I do agree that FCS aren't the best fins for kitesurfing, & I actually do use the red x system on my surfboard which I kite with. But for the windier days I'm using a SS SRT & trying to find replacement fins for that has been a nightmare in the past. (I know you can get a SRT fin pack from SS now) Would be nice to have a range of fins that I can use & easily get hold of, so thats why I thought of going with the FCS adapter.

yep. Its a pain in the arse, unless I use a board with FCS I can get redex etc. from 1 store where they are readily available. I've bought a carbon fibre type fin which is a little bigger/stiffer for the middle fin as that one tends not to snap and use the crappy plastic ones for the outside thruster fins. It's helped!
