I like the Tri Fins, on my old single fin it was to twitchy on the nose and to stiff on the tail.

Depends what you want to do. Singles for simplicity and learning how to turn....tri's for effortless performance.
It shouldn't matter but.......singles look better. Glassed in by preference.

Single for classic traditional style surfing in small to medium waves, Tri-fin for laying down hard turns and bigger waves.

anyone had a single fin that just performed brilliant? charged down the line, got nice on the trim and nose ride too ?
i'm thinking of just getting a single fin next board, but want to make sure the tail measurements and rails suit it too
