    Great video. Thanks for sharing. I will say the fins can come out on their own. I understand the concept that you'd have to go "backwards" for it to come out, but it happened (?). New board, new fins, 5th time out with it and my middle fin (of the 3) is MIA after a two hour session in mild conditions. I took a tumble or two so I assume that's when it happened.
    Update : After sending photos and answering a couple of questions, SurfFCS sent me a replacement center fin a week after I first contacted them. They noted how unlikely it is to fall off if properly installed, but said I could add grub screws to prevent it from occurring again.
    I purchased the fins from a local surf shop, and they still assisted. They were great a great company to work with.

    I was just farting around with an Allen key in the holes of my board for 10 minutes before asking myself if FCS II was different. Thank you!!!

    I suggest (among others) that you use the rear grub screw. I lost a quad trailer going over the falls when it caught me on the calf. Hurt like hell and left a good gash and bruise. Thank God I was wearing a full or it would have been stitches, no doubt. On the other hand, if I had the screw in, it probably would had done serious damage. That's a thinker....

      Take piece of fine wet and dry and round the edges off your fins . It won't affect the fins performance in the least and will be a lot safer ..sharp edges are not needed anywhere on a surfboard .

    My 10yr old son lost a fin this morning at a super mellow longboard spot riding his 5’6” JS Flame fish. I have ridden futures for 19 years and never lost a fin. 3rd session on fcs2 and lost the left fin. I will never buy a board with fcs2 boxes again.

    Lubericate the tab on the fin by rubbing on a small amount of surf wax.
