What fins do people like for these? I own 3.25 TA side bites already... what center?

I also have a 8.5" greenough 4a that seems like an ok single? Or go bigger?

fingers crossed... i bought into the hype

Fin setup/sizing for 7’6 Haley Pin

I have one coming in the next few days so I’m looking for a 2+1 setup. I don’t know how wide the tail is so I’m not sure on sizing for center fin. Would a 7.25 be long enough? I know the Bonzer runners are popular for sides and I’d like to try that out but the center is my main concern. What’s...

Thick Lizzy quiver killer

Just before the holidays, I drove down to Jersey to pick up a custom 8'2 Thick Lizzy from Glide. My conversation with Ryan about it was to have a longboard alternative that could still pick up knee slappers while being functional in juicer surf. As you might discern, the outline is inspired by...

Plenty to read above, but: I have never tried my Lizzy with regular upright fins but I have with the Bonzer runners and I really don't like it. Everything from a 6.5 Frye to the 7.75 Lovelace.

I run the 7.75 Lovelace as a single. I would love a bit smaller fin to try as a single, as I think this is still a bit much fin, but it definitely works.

Your 4a seems too big imo unless you are a big guy.

cool i have an 8" greenough as well. I am 180lb. I have been gravitating towards bigger fins recently. I really like to drive my bottom turn hard. I find the smaller fins though loose and skatey dont get the projection i want.... sounds like i need to try a few things. I also have a 7" rusty fin that is almost exactly like a TA california classic. I will start with what i own before i start buying more

I have a 7.75" Lovelace that I used in my 7'7" Thick Lizzy. Worked well. DM me if you're interested in purchasing.

Maybe I need to try bigger! I'm not really getting what I want either. Not getting the projection I want, but I thought a smaller fin would be better (I'm not a fin Guru).

I just received a 9" Christianson Tracker fin with a v.Bowls I snagged. Maybe this is the answer I am looking for!
