Rounding into winter with black friday and cyber monday purchases

Didn't really buy chit. Zero deals on wetties, but grabbed some new boots for 20% off. Mosdef seen the Q4 ROI on my NP Mid last few months. Board just collects with some decent swell and the right conditions. Not really much of a small wave board as I thought it might be. Kinda getting ripped duck diving it, which has become fairly easy in some juice. 2+1 for the win. Stylee bottom turns, drive off the back foot, pivot in da pocket, and can find head dipage and the choob when its there. 8)

Late to the party I guess and was not a subscriber of this channel until recently. I thought this bit of knowledge drop was pretty interesting. I know which turn I wanna make......

That's it. I'm getting rid of all my boards that are under 6'9" and over 7'1". I'm done.

Bummer the Wayne Rich didn't come through for you.

I only use mine in shoulder high + surf with a bit of juice or a nice wide open face. The drive I get out of turning that fin is such a unique feeling. I feel like Dev-ON. In general, the board I use it in is really lacking in smaller, sectioning surf.

Maybe try it again when you have room to carve. Love it on the backhand.

That's exactly the combo I am running in my Mid and it's been working for me. As I have mentioned before, been pleasantly surprised by the maneuverability of the board. But then again I have nothing else to compare it to because that is the only fin set I have, so perhaps ignorance is bliss.

What upright template are you using? Assuming just a single no side bites? My Mid has not really been as good as I hoped in small gutless.

What's going on in the back half of the base of that FCSII fin? Is this
keeping in step with a tool less design?
