Okay, if you’re going to choose a twin with a trailer, basically what it is it’s your base is your twin fin setup. Basically you have your big side fins, that are bigger than your tri-fins. And then sometimes on a twin fin, you kind of get a little slide into the turn, for on those bigger days you need something more to hold the tail down and give you more of a positive traction in your turn. So basically, what they’ve done, is you still have your side fins as they’re holding into the face of the wave, and then you have a small trailer fin in the back that is just holding down the tail just a little bit so that you get that positive feel as a thruster, but still you get the speed of the twin fin.


 

Brief history and introduction to Vektor Fins.  Vektor started of with longboard side bites, tested wake board fins, installed in paipo boards, prone and drop knee bodyboarding, and various surfboard fin set ups.  The unique fin template’s hydrodynamic principles perform on all types of wave crafts.  “The nubster fin like you never see it.”  Mahalo HSS and David Kelly!
