Speed Fins

By Phil at 2:34pm on 5th Jan, 2007

Got a new board a couple of months ago DHD Mick Fanning model fitted with his signature Speed fins
Think they perform really well and are noticably different to the FCS im using in my othe JP's
Has any one else used these? main thing is im going to Morocco with it in April any tips on getting the buggers out for travel?

Fin removal

I've a board in my shop with speed fins. What you have to do is rock the fin backwards an forwards whilst pulling it upwards, push the tip forwards untill you can get a wax comb under the back of the fin, then just knock it back to remove.
To replace fins simply push it straight in, it also says not to lubricate with anything but spit or water, and ensure slots are clean.
Are they really that different to FCS or Future Fins
