See the Full Post: http://bit.ly/SurfboardFinSetupsProsCons Fins matter. Surfboard fin setups matter. Let's have a quick look at the accepted pros and cons of the single fin, twin fin, 3-fin thruster and quad fin setups side by side.
Are you stuck on a particular fin setup? Try something new, you may be surprised by how much you dig the feeling of a fin setup you're not used to.
Quick Summary:
Single fins have a strong cult following and for good reason...the feeling of riding a single fin is like nothing else. Give it time. Many surfers try single fins but, not accustomed to the need to have to take the energy the wave provides versus generating your own speed, abandon the pursuit. Single fins hold a line like nothing else.
Twin fins or 'twinnys' are fast and loose...ultimate speed but they can spin out, especially on a big bottom turn in bigger, more powerful waves. Still, lots of surfers (Dave Rasta to name one), love the feel of a twin fin.
The 3-fin thruster fin setup is, by a wide margin, the most popular fin setup used today. Leveraging the hold of the single fin but the speed of a twinny, thrusters are well rounded and are used by most of the professional surfers on the WCT.
Quads are faster and a touch looser vs. the thruster. Still able to do tight turning carves, the quad fin setups is also great for power turns at speed.
I like quads. What's your favourite surfboard fin setup?

If you're going to choose fins, there's many types of fins, whether it's for your classic long board fin, you have a long base, which is giving you a lot of drive, and then you have a lot of area in this fin. So it's holding the board into the face of the wave.
This is your high performance long board fin. Now, basically, you can see the different style of fins. One is taller and skinnier with more rake. What the rake is, it's giving you projection. In other words, you can see with these two fins that this one has much more rake. What the rake does is give you drive down the line. It's projecting you down the line of the wave.
Whereas this fin has less rake, so it's more of a pivot fin. It wants to go up into the face of the wave. So all depending on how wide your base is and how much your rake is, that's what's going to determine the performance of your fin.
Now your fins, when the water flow goes around the fin, this is a double-foiled fin. It's curved on both sides meeting fifty-fifty in the center, and so the water flow is going around it, holding it down into the face of the wave, and then releasing off of the trailing edge.
Now with your basic thruster fin, the side with the curve goes on the outside, which is holding to the face of the wave, and the flat side, on the inside, is giving you lift and helping you hold into the face of the wave and giving you speed.
And you can see that with thruster fins, same thing. The different sizes of the base, and the different rakes in the angle of the fins, will give you different projections, whether you want to go down the line to pivot turns. It's all the different types. These are basically the types of fins you will get with your stock boards, and then you can upgrade your fins.
Now, they make a high tech fin which is a fiberglass fin with honeycomb inside. What this does, the honeycomb makes it really light, so your board is really balanced. They cost a little bit more but they're worth the money. And that is your fins.

Surfboard fin
A surfboard fin or skeg is a hydrofoil mounted at the tail of a surfboard or similar board to improve directional stability and control through foot-steering. Fins can provide lateral lift opposed to the water and stabilize the board's trajectory, allowing the surfer to control direction by varying their side-to-side weight distribution. The introduction of fins in the 1930s revolutionized surfing and board design. Surfboard fins may be arrayed in different numbers and configurations, and many different shapes, sizes, and materials are and have been made and used.
History
Historically, surfboards had no fins; some amount of control was achieved through convex hulls and the surfer dragging a foot in the water. A common problem with these early boards was "sliding ass", in which the tail would slip sideways, usually causing a wipeout. The first fixed fin was introduced by surfing pioneer Tom Blake in 1935. In Waikiki, Blake attached a 12-inch (30 cm) long, 4-inch (10 cm) deep metal keel from an abandoned speedboat to his surfboard, and was immediately impressed with the results. Around 1936, Woody Brown independently added a fixed fin to his second surfboard design in San Diego, which further popularized the feature.

Choose the right
"Choose the right" is a saying or motto among members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS Church) that is taught to children and used by members of the church as a reminder to make choices that will help an individual to live righteously. The phrase is taken from an LDS hymn which has that title.
History
The letters CTR, a reference to this phrase, are incorporated into a shield logo designed by Helen Alldredge, Margery Cannon and Lurene Wilkinson who were Primary General Board members in the 1960s. In 1970, a church committee headed by Naomi W. Randall recommended that the shield be incorporated into official church material. Since then, both the phrase and symbol have been used in religious educational materials for LDS youth of Primary age. The symbol is also used in LDS culture by members of all ages, both as a reminder of the motto, as well as an indicator of religious affiliation. The CTR initials, displayed on the shield and in other forms, can be seen mainly on CTR rings as well as other types of jewelry, tee shirts, bookmarks and stationery.

If you're going to choose fins, there's many types of fins, whether it's for your classic long board fin, you have a long base, which is giving you a lot of drive, and then you have a lot of area in this fin. So it's holding the board into the face of the wave.
This is your high performance long board fin. Now, basically, you can see the different style of fins. One is taller and skinnier with more rake. What the rake is, it's giving you projection. In other words, you can see with these two fins that this one has much more rake. What the rake does is give you drive down the line. It's projecting you down the line of the wave.
Whereas this fin has less rake, so it's more of a pivot fin. It wants to go up into the face of the wave. So all depending on how wide your base is and how much your rake is, that's what's going to determine the performance of your fin.
Now your fins, when the water flow goes around the fin, this is a double-foiled fin. It's curved on both sides meeting fifty-fifty in the center, and so the water flow is going around it, holding it down into the face of the wave, and then releasing off of the trailing edge.
Now with your basic thruster fin, the side with the curve goes on the outside, which is holding to the face of the wave, and the flat side, on the inside, is giving you lift and helping you hold into the face of the wave and giving you speed.
And you can see that with thruster fins, same thing. The different sizes of the base, and the different rakes in the angle of the fins, will give you different projections, whether you want to go down the line to pivot turns. It's all the different types. These are basically the types of fins you will get with your stock boards, and then you can upgrade your fins.
Now, they make a high tech fin which is a fiberglass fin with honeycomb inside. What this does, the honeycomb makes it really light, so your board is really balanced. They cost a little bit more but they're worth the money. And that is your fins.
