Guessing that we are talking shortboard here? If you are not planing air travel and know what you want (or trust the shapers advice) go fixed fins for sure; I find that they provide a much more enjoyable ridding experience... Otherwise go a removable fin system that gives you the flexability you need.

i broke my fin off, not on purpose, and because it was a home made board form some guy in devon, the fin took half of the board with it when it broke because it hadent been glassed properly.
