Has anyone tried to install an FCS (or other such removeable) fin system on a stand up paddle board? I'm getting ahead of myself here and not nearly ready for it but thought it could make transport easier and curious if anyone had done this or had info where to buy the meat for the system

You aren't getting ahead of yourself, you have to prepare for this as you build it. You can use most any fin system as long as you back the area up with enough wood stock that it will encompass the unit. If it is not fully surrounded by wood or some other material it can get a hairline fracture and start sipping water inside your board. www.surfersteve.com/fins.htmHere is some more info on fin placement and such.... |
