yes another fin question

Postby bluesnowcone » Fri Aug 10, 2007 11:08 am

when i got my 6'6" bilbo egg it came with an 8-9inch fin with a hell of alot of rake. would this fin work on my longboard as a noesriding fin? and both of the boards have a 2+1 setup

the fin looks alittle like this fin

but with alittle less rake

The shape looks good, but it would be easier if you had more fin area all the way through like this:

Pointed tips aren't exactly designed for noseriding.
