stabilizers on the surf ?
Re: stabilizers on the surf ?
I wouldn't recommend it. Most people only launch their TIs/AIs from the beach in "IceCream" conditions. Extra stuff in the water makes it easier for the waves to push you around, making it harder to steer. Once you flip, it's going to be a b**** trying to get it upright.
