How to install your Red Paddle Co SUP fin

All stand up paddle boards come with fins. Whether it’s a fin box (US, FCS, Futures…) or an iFin style already attached fin, every board needs them for grip and tracking. We looked at how to install a US box style fin about a year ago with the 2014 12’6″ Race and now Red Paddle Co have an updated video featuring the 3 main removable fins in their range. The new “weed-friendly” fibreglass race fin as found standard on all the Race and Elite Red Paddle Co models for 2015, the black dolphin style fin for the 11′ Sport and the purple flexy dolphin style fin for the 12’6″ Explorer.

It is a tool free procedure making it easy to install and remove the fin, and you don’t have to worry about whether or not you packed your screwdriver! Happy days, see you on the water.
