The Hobie Mirage ST Turbo Fin Kit upgrades the Mirage Drive with new fins and masts to increase the surface area by over 10 percent. Hobie Mirage kayak users report as much as a 10% increase in speed and more using ST Turbo Fins. But its not all about speed, you can get top end speed and a slower cadence for cruising (Less pedals per mile). All achieved with this larger and more efficient fin design. The longer fins can also increase lateral resistance for sailing upwind. The ST (Square Tip) designs will require a bit more effort to pedal. The added effort is commonly compared to pedaling a bike up a slight incline. In addition, the included fin tension screw allows adjustment to achieve lower end torque or top end speed to meet individual preferences. | ||||||||||||

| Review: | I love the added resistance and speed. Relating it to riding a bike, I felt the standard fins were in too low of a gear. I now get more out of each stoke, and a better leg workout. | ||||

| Review: | Nice upgrade over the standard equipment. Even at maximum torque setting I find them easy to pedal. It makes kayaking against river currents and tides more controllable. | ||||

| Review: | They are faster. There is a difference, it was like going from 1st gear to 7th. I consider myself in shape and swim at least 2 miles a day 5-6 days a week over a decade. I was out for 4 1/2 hours I did get used to them. Ill need to adjust my speed for trolling, I was used to trolling with the small ones and my Hobie was a fishing machine, now the speeed is differnt and I only caught one today. | ||||
