so it seems that quad fins are becoming the rage on ocean surfers so does anyone see a benfit to doing this on a wakesurf?

surf tech had a quad fin set-up on a skimboard at world's wakesurfing comp in merced, looked pretty funny to me, kinda pointless on a skim??

Sean,
Getting close. A very touchy configuration at slow speeds. Stay tuned.

i've already seen it somewhere.it works.actually creates a venturi effect,makin thrust ie:thruster.only the most skilled riders would benefit from this set up.

i have a quad setup in my js model and its my favorite fin setup so far im using 2) 4 and a quarter fins in the front and 2)3" in the rear.i have been surfing quads in the ocean a while now and behind the boat it works well because your tail doesent slide like a twin but you have the speed of a twin and the hold of a thruster when you want it but you can break it free easier
