    The differences you were pointing out were almost all actually differences between PU and EPS foams, not the resins like you kept saying. Polyester resin is objectively worse in every way than epoxy resin other than it being slightly cheaper. It's weaker, stiffer, more brittle, and doesn't last as long. If you prefer PU boards then get PU glassed with epoxy resin.

    • @used_surf
      @used_surf 15 днів тому

    • @used_surf
      @used_surf 20 днів тому

      @@thebluewren in some ways that's true. It does however depend on two things. If the quad fins are placed closer together or further apart...and if the board has more tail rocker or is flatter. More tail rocker sometimes you need bigger rears (relatively speaking) to create drive since there is more curve in the tail....and vise versa. Best rule of thumb is get the size of quad rears that are relative to your weight...small, med, large. Or go experimental when the idea that you mentioned like two big twin fins into super smaller quad rears.

    Anyone else find them too stiff ?I threw those into my dominator II and hated them. Not sure if it’s because the finboxes are too clustered. Tried both quad and thruster and never used them again. Ironically the AM1s felt “looser” Weird as didn’t think it would be pivoty enough but not sure if it’s to do with curve or size of the board (5’7) or my size / weight but Yh I never tried the endorfins again. Good money spent that at 100$…

    Yes, fins make a big difference to a board, like tyres/tires on a car/auto.

      Yep you nailed it with that analogy.

    Have you tried the Dane Reynolds fins from Captain? It looks very similar to the AMs, I’m so curious about the differences.

      Yeah that would be a good comparison because they are very similar with the two front fins being larger and then the center trailing fin being smaller. maybe we'll try to fit that into the mix soon.
