    I got these Alpha Vector 3/2 fins and they work insane!!

      Do you think it could be a good idea for a beginner/intermediate surfer ?

    • @tonyfoster7892

      Yes@@fredericjoncour3514...These fins can loosen up a stiff surfboard by providing more lift and speed! They great get up and go speed in smaller surf that a beginner/intermediate surfer would mostly be riding. Higly recommend these fins on a small wave board using the large. And medium on your average shortboard.

    How do these compare to the old school Vectors from Futures?

    The new 3/2 fins futures has been making are insane. I have the Solus 3/2 with the hatchet as the trailer and I can stop using them. I can’t wait to try the vectors.

    I was almost selling my new board as I couldn't click with it...tryed pivot, neutral 2+1...none was working as I thought...then srewed these, and i'm loving it. So fast , responsive, made the board light and juicy.
    Loved them

    When Futures first started, all their fins where multi foiled and canted. Seems like, once they broke into FCS's monopoly (due to Future's single screw boxes...not fins), they quit making all the trippy "Klingon" fin designs. Cool to see they've come back around to exploring that further.

      Yeah I agree, you know it's been my estimation that surfers don't really like to stray too far too fast from the norm.

    Hi! Very good review … based on your feeling what fin size you may choose if you are 177 pounds (81kg)?

    These remind me of Scimitar fins I have. Similar template?

      Yeah exactly. I have some sets of those as well back in the day I felt like they had like two or three variations of this theory.

      @@mjstatic77 the JJF scimitars have a little shorter base and not quite as raked back....more pivot. Check our channel, we just did a review of them.

    How would you compare these to the Tokoros? Thanks.

    • @used_surf
      @used_surf  10 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Tokoro I would say are more predictable, vector 3/2 have a little more drive, and sacrificing a bit of looseness.

    Don't think you stock MFC fins but can you review the JS thrusters, they have a longer base than any fin I know of.

    Hi All! Would you go these or f8 blackstix or f8 alpha, in small mushi waves looking for speed on a grovelly pulled it swallow tail at 36 lt? How does the new vector flex? Thank s

    • @used_surf
      @used_surf  10 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      I would go the f8 blackstix, that speed generation is key is grovlers. The new vector has a medium feeling flex, stiff but not too stiff.

    I've got the original issue 3/2 with the 4.5 and 4.25 hatchet fins (choose one), and they're buff/light colored,…. thankfully not black. Black is just sheep-dom. I prefer white fins.
