This is the second "tech video" by Andy in the past few month. First one I think was about boots and straps. Are we looking at a series of short "tech videos" ?
I would like the next one to talk about rocker/concave/stiffness.

Small fins are 3/4" wake fins! I roll with the slingshot fins off my wake boards for my boot board. I use reg fins for my strap board.

gotta love those small fins on twin tips for sliding, can even be fun when wave surfing.

I think he means and I could be wrong, is that he is talking about turning the board 90 degrees and then using the small waves/chop/flattest water as a slider.. I do this often and have fun with it but I haven't seen anyone else do it
