I got to try out my set of Slide Fins. This set is for Right Hand waves. ( I have another set for Left Hand waves also ).

Interesting. I haven't seen fins like that before
So what is worse.... dying or regretting it for the rest of my life? Obviously I chose not regretting it.

Wow, had never heard of those! They are made so you can kick and slide the tail easier on carves? Guess they make the board basically finless when surfing left-hand waves right?

Surprisingly the board rode pretty much normal until your really get on rail. The spring need some pressure to make it disengage.
