What do you guys think about this program? is it really worth it? its .99 for the first month and your order basically any fins they have. I'm a little skeptical at first... what do yall think?
I was thinkin about signing up for the 9.99 per mo.

I think you'd spend an awful lot of time obsessively testing fins and forgetting to just have fun and surf :?

You need to read the fine print, about this, you are paying $10 a month, that's $120 per year.
I you damage the fins you pay a "fine".
You get a 10 to 20% discount if you buy used fins, still sounds like paying to me. :lol:

yeah $120 per year but you get whatever fins you want. and say I didn't do it and I buy a $80 set of fins and if they don't work well for me or I want a different style i'd have to pay for another $80 dollar fin.
I just think its cool that you have access to alot of fins you know? I think I'm gunna do it

screw you guys :ninja:

Wow,you ask for our opinions then when we give them, that's all you can say!

It's always your choice anyway, no where was there said any thing against you, just queries about the product.

A forum is a discussion of opinions about things and there is plenty of differences on here and in those opinions you find your own way.

Fins are fins. I always just use bog standard FCS fins which came with a board years ago an I rip on them (even if I do say so myself :-D)

I agree with the above. Just get out and surf!

I might be wrong and I might be really missing out but I feel that my fcs fins do the job so why shop around. Hope you find a set that suit you.
