Surfing Waves

Recently new to long boarding and loving it. I've always had one just really never used it until the past couple times. I have a 9,2 rusty (i can give you width later don't know it by memory) and with a 2+1 fine system. The board turns great and j really enjoy it. Of course I've been trying to get nose riding down PAC! Which I'm not bad at it just inconsistent. Question just a single fin set of help more to nose ride? Also I'm a bigger guy 6.0 210 and the board seems to be a high performance long board when I kinda like cruisen and riding the nose? Any suggestions thanks.

yeah, at 210lbs you should use a bigger board for noseriding.

As to fin, long raking fin, 10inch, or a big hatchet, and yes take off the side fins.

I weigh 220 and am 6ft s all things are equal there I ride and nose ride a 9'1" Outer island board as my all round go to board and it nose rides well from 2ft today to 6 to 8 ft Indonesian stuff.
It is not a light throw around performance board for light throw around expert surfers ( I am certainly not) adequately average is my range.

You can go bigger in the board and wider all helps.

For fins you can as themathteacher says go a big single fin or you can go smaller in the side bites I ride with the smaller pair from an FCS set of Bonzer quad fins works for me, but then I have a unique single to double concave that functions with the bonzer set up.
Have a look at the fin primer it may help viewtopic.php?f=9&t=16523.

It is a great test getting 220 to the nose, the lighter among us have less for gravity to suck

Thanks a lot for the answers guys, I'm pretty portional I play college football so the weights not a huge issue. But ya I have 7.5 middle fin on now and just ordered a 10 hatchet to put on her and take the side bites off, will see how that works. I still gotta get better at riding the nose in general but I hope the hatchet makes it a litte better. I'm sure a bigger board would be ideal but right now just work with I got. Thanks again.

Since I'm the same weight it's not an issue particularly if you are fit, it is actually about floating the weight on the board particularly as you move to the nose.
If you are fit and athletically fit at whatever weight your whole proprioreceptor system will work toward assessing and subtly effecting balance, get used to it and your nervous system will weigh it all up as to when you go forward and back.
Forget the lightweights it's "Kahuna Magic" to see a good heavyweight nose ride
