The Donfather Posted February 14, 2016 Author Report Share Posted February 14, 2016 I was looking at the website. It says jc1 is for 145 to 195. I am gonna have to go with larg 180+. Are these fins sold in pairs of sets of three and you don't use the middle one. Or is it better to ord ram quad set. I know all me it questions. Let the bashing begin.

Size when it comes to wakesurfing isnt always pound for pound. The Futures Blackstick JC1 is a fantastic fin. Its super fast down the line, has a nice pump, springy feel great fin. If you want something with a bit more slide can I recommend the Generation HS2. It has almost identical drive to the JC1 but it spins on a dime..Donnie..You seems like you like to go out sideways a lot... lol https://futuresfins.com/en-us/hs2-generation-2486-435-00-detail Text me if you have any questions on these fins. I have tested a bunch of them and are super happy with the new Generation series (it came out late summer) If you want something with a bit more hold when you go for those hard carves I would say go for a "L" size fin... but not necessary...depending how loose you like your board.

mxvet Posted March 17, 2016 Report Share Posted March 17, 2016 Has anyone tried the viskus pad? http://viskus.com/ I rode a board with an early model viskus pad on it. Liked it enough that I wanted one to try long term. After several months, Jeff finally got them in and I have one on the way. website still says "out of stock" though...AND I just noticed this below. .with no availability to buy another, might be back to the foam. How long does each Viskus kit last?This will vary depending on the weight of the surfer and how hard they surf. Our team riders typically average 20 uses.

The Donfather Posted March 17, 2016 Author Report Share Posted March 17, 2016 So I heard from Soulcraft today. He laid the graphics and it is supposed to be done today. I am hoping to have soon. Yes it will be with me at the meetup. That will be the first time I ride it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Donfather Posted March 19, 2016 Author Report Share Posted March 19, 2016 That was hella close. Soulcraft posted the picture of my board on Instagram. Was there for only 5 min. Had 16 likes. . I was able to have it removed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Donfather Posted March 22, 2016 Author Report Share Posted March 22, 2016 Ok hopefully should have my board soon. Want to order a set of fins . Was thinking qd2 4.15 but that is just the thruster. What main fin should I run . I am so confused. I weight 250 . 6'5" tall. I want something fast so I can keep pressure off my left (front) leg, since this is my new knee. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Mucker626 Posted March 22, 2016 Report Share Posted March 22, 2016 How could give advice on such a highly top secret board??? The Donfather 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Donfather Posted March 22, 2016 Author Report Share Posted March 22, 2016 It will be a Hunter clement pro 4'10" with 6 fin boxes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shawndoggy Posted March 22, 2016 Report Share Posted March 22, 2016 I could be wrong (I'm not a fluid engineer) but fins won't make the board fast or slow from a cruising perspective. If you are just standing there, whether you need to weight your front or back foot will be a function of the wave and of the board design itself (rocker, channelling underneath etc). What fins will do is give you the ability to generate speed by pumping. If you don't/can't/won't pump, I don't think you'll notice any difference in the fins. IMHO, YMMV, etc etc The Donfather 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Donfather Posted April 2, 2016 Author Report Share Posted April 2, 2016 My board is done. It is at UPS about 10 min away from my house. I will get it Monday. Gonna be a long weekend. oldsmobiledriver 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
