I have 2 surfboards running the future style fins....I want to buy some really small cheap fins as I am pretty sure I will break alot- any links ?

The fins I have are about 120mm- I want something around 50mm- any ideas ?

There was a great thread about fins about 2 months ago. Im too lazy to search for it, but if you check about 1-2 months ago some people suggested some great places to buy some.

Try to get glass fins though, as they provide more drive and last lots longer.

Buy some decent glass and carbon futures like the blackstix and you would seriously struggle to break them, unless you are 150kgs and running in to dry reef?

I've ridden Tims board above with the tiny red fins - and it's sick - slippery but AWESOME :-D

Those fins look terrible, why would you sacrifice a decent fin with superior drive, flex, twist and memory for cheap rubbish like that?

Its on a quad - two big drivey fins in the front and these little ones in the back to loosen the tail up. Works really well - but would be horrible on a thruster...

If you really want your quad to perform like its on steroids then stick these in it.
