I've now had had my 9.5 Mana for approx. 4 months and I love it! I find it is easy to paddle and I catch heaps of waves on it.

However, it does feel like the fins drag a bit when I'm on a wave and I was wondering if there are any recommendations for upgrading the standard fins.

Having windsurfed a lot I know the importance of a good fin and my thinking is that I need a fin which can help lift the back of the board (maybe a longer fin?).

I should add that im around 90kg and only use the boards in waves.

Thanks very much!

Yep, DJ is right.
I swapped the stock fins on my Mana for a set of Von Piros fins, and it made a big difference.
Piros does a great deal on a combo set of fins, same as in DJ's board
Unless you're really lucky(?) and get the dogman all over them!
