Choosing Mirage Fins for your Hobie fishing kayak.

Kevin talks about the different fins options for the MirageDrive and has some tips for helping you choose the best option for your Hobie. The standard fins come on most of the kayaks and offer good pedaling performance and are very easy to use. The ST fins are sold individually, can be easily installed on the standard mast and offer a performance upgrade if you're looking to either increase your speed or slow your pedaling cadence. The ST Turbo come as a kit that includes two fins and two longer masts. Turbo fins offer the highest performance when you're after maximum speed and they also offer the slowest pedaling cadence when you're just out for a cruise.

It would be nice to know the MPH difference between the three fins. I go around 5mph with the standard fins. The accuracy of that number is based on my suunto ambit2 watch...

I would say the turbo fins are larger and have a little more flex to them so consequently probably easier to tear up. However, I wouldn't trade mine for the world. My Hobie Pro Angler 14 flies across the water even with all my gear and second person on back.

if you keep right foot back the fins will be against the hull for shallow waters. Rocks are not your friend. However when you get in shallow waters you just do smaller pedal movements to keep fins close to hull. Rods are the first thing to break if you catch a rock with alot of force. They were designed to break first because they are easiest to replace and cheapest part.

Turbo fins are amazing. My 140lb Hobie Pro Angler 14 with me and my gear is so fast that I create a large wake behind it! I have even towed a 18ft boat back into the marina that ran out of gas! Check out my videos. Hobie Makes great products...granted a little outside most people's budget, but you get great performance. I would like to see their Pro Anglers priced closer to $2.5k instead of $2.9k. However, I love mine and am glad I got it.

Not really. They're just shorter and slower.

Whoa!!! I just noticed the guy turned his Mirage Drive around to go in reverse. I didn't even know that was possible!

Are the standard fins more durable than the turbos? I hit a couple of rocks with my turbos and tore them up.
