A mate who's a fan of HS boards that has a Hypto, Hypto step up and a Hypto twin fin just YOLO'ed a misc from the HS outlet store.
First surf in good waves and he was loving it.

Rusty Tri-Quad (M, L) - Apex
Rusty has decades of experience with fin design; and we worked with him to refine some of his existing templates to be more performance oriented. The new Rusty fins are made with G10 and feature a slight concave to flat foil on the front fins and an 80/20 foil on the trailers for easier rail to...

You should buy my Machado keels
Need some advice, my mini padi will be done soon and I've never owned a bigger wave board. I usually ride fairly raked large fins, even in my ghost but got a feeling that this won't be ideal for the new sled.
Triquad fin quiver is:
Tokoro L
H4 L
AM L
MF L
Reactor rears M
DHD rears M
Any recommendations for thruster / quad front fins? Uprights/Neutral in L or even M? Raked in M? Would much prefer to not experiment too much with this one but get it right from the first surf as I'll probably only get to surf it 10 times a year.

Endorfin fault update. Here are some photos of the damaged fin:
This fin broke during a bottom turn; there was no impact to the fin and the fin box is completely unaffected.
The other side fin is also showing signs of fatigue which is a little worrying:
I have just emailed Firewire customer support asking for a replacement set. I'll keep the erbb posted as to the response.

MP has a pretty narrow tail for Ls IMHO. For FCS2, I liked Accelerater Ms in a roundpin stepap. Maybe buy the thruster set and use with your Reactor rears to start.
FW= cheap Chinese crap
guarantee they will send you a new one for free

Newly acquired EA quads worked great on my 6'1" roundtail mitsven. It's an everyday HPSB. Nice balance of hold and pivot while being able to take the highline a quad allows.
Judging by how easy it was to get replacement boards that suffered the red staining in the lams recently here in Australia I'd hazard to say a replacement set of fins would be a no brainer. (Pun intended) .
Update on the broken Endorfins - just got an email from Firewire.
They are sending me a replacement set, and want the damaged set back for "further assessment".

Great news.
Maybe lay off the deadlifts for a while so you don't blast these new ones in half first session?
Has anybody tried Drab fins? Specifically the Mikel twins?
They just released a larger size and I'm tempted.

Mikel Twin Large / / Single Tab — DRAB
The Mikel Twin by Shaper/Surfer Mikel Evans. These fins were designed for high performance twin fins with the end goal of making them competitive with modern thruster and quad surfboards. The most notable part of the fin is the hatchet allowing the actual fin height and base to be smaller while sti
