Seems to have too much drag, should I install smaller fins, increase toe in, get a different color harness lines,
may have water or ice absorbed ?

You need to think more 'outside the box'.

Ahhhh the new "eboxy" resin construction. One of the big advantages is you can fold it for shipping. No question.
