Hi everybody.
I'm looking for a fin to replace in my Naish Glide 12´6, the original one allows me only 5 or 6 strokes per side in flatwater. I'm thinking in the FCS Danny Ching fin or any other that gives me at least 10 strokes per side.
Has anybody tried the DC FCS?
I'm 100 kg, any suggestions?

Long base on that Danny Ching fin should help with tracking but if you have stability issues as well you might want something with a bit more meat at the tip. There's a 10.5" Naish Dolphin fin that works well on that board, should help with tracking and is relatively inexpensive.

also see this thread about tracking & paddle technique:

You might also look at something like Larry Allison Gladiator or Gladiator Hybrid for that board

a 10" axe works as well as anything for me.

Thanks for the information.
Since I recived my board I´m been working in my paddle technic. Yesterday I found this video in youtube from Jim Terrell.


Try it today in the water, incredible difference but not so natural (needs practice). Any way on Friday I'm reciving a new hand shape custom fin in g10.
