Hello all,
I just got the 5'8" potato-nator and was wanting to know a good quad fin setup. I usually dont ride quads but want to start on this board, i weigh 145lbs and am 5'6". The board has future fin setup i am surfing in North Carolina so most of the time the waves here all small and mushy. We do good days every so often.
soilsurfer252, for your weight, i heard the F4 and Rasta quad sets are good.
ALOHA!!

Thanks for the help might see if i can try and demo some of those fins. Have any of you tried out that surfboardwarehouse.com? I guess for 10 bucks a month you can demo as many fins as you want, kinda like netflix for surfers. Do the Rastas and controllers have pretty good stabilty? I know some fins on quads can get pretty lose on bigger waves. Thanks again
you also cant go wrong with the SF4s...

Hey All, use my Firewire email, [email protected] for emergency issues, not my forum inbox. However, please avoid contacting me directly with questions on choosing a board, just use the glorious forum. Cheers!
I've got the elevons in mine , after trying sf4 and others I like the elevons the best they seem to have made the board come alive ,its a 5'8 also but I'm 6'2 and 190lbs
If you can beg borrow or steal to get a set of Elevons..do it. They are THE best fins IMO for that board...dont ask me why thought...cause I have no clue.
I seccond tht motion, although I like the Solus
