1. Úvod
This manual provides essential information for the installation, operation, and maintenance of your Ronix Fiberglass Asymmetrical Wakeboard Fins. These fins are designed to enhance your wakeboarding experience by offering a unique combination of speed and maneuverability.
The asymmetrical design of these fins allows for high speeds in a straight line while providing a looser feel through turns. This is achieved by combining characteristics of a fast/aggressive Ramp fin and a loose Free Agent fin. Each order includes two fins.
Ronix Asymmetrical Wakeboard Fins are available in two primary sizes: 0.6 inches and 0.8 inches. Taller fins (0.8") generally provide a stronger edge hold and perform better in rougher water conditions, offering increased stability. Shorter fins (0.6") allow for a quicker release off the water, facilitating easier spins and slides.

2. Nastavení a instalace
Proper installation of your Ronix wakeboard fins is crucial for optimal performance and safety. Ensure your wakeboard has compatible fin boxes before proceeding.
Kroky instalace:
- Prepare the Fin Box: Ensure the fin boxes on your wakeboard are clean and free of debris.
- Orient the Fin: The asymmetrical fin has a specific orientation. The leading edge (thicker, more rounded) should face the front of the board, and the trailing edge (thinner, sharper) should face the rear. The "RONIX" logo is typically oriented correctly when the fin is installed.
- Insert the Fin: Gently slide the fin into the fin box. It should fit snugly but without excessive force.
- Secure the Fin: Depending on your board's fin system, secure the fin using the provided screws or locking mechanism. Ensure the fin is firmly seated and does not wobble. Do not overtighten screws, as this can damage the fin or board.
- Repeat for Second Fin: Install the second fin on the opposite side of the board, ensuring symmetrical placement and correct orientation.
Always double-check that both fins are securely attached before entering the water.

3. Provozní charakteristiky
The Ronix Fiberglass Asymmetrical Wakeboard Fins are engineered to provide a unique blend of stability and agility. Understanding their characteristics will help you optimize your riding experience.
- Straight-Line Speed: The design promotes efficient water flow, allowing the board to track straighter and achieve higher speeds with less drag.
- Looser Turns: While providing stability, the asymmetrical profile also allows for a more forgiving and "looser" feel during turns, making it easier to initiate spins and slides. This characteristic is a blend of the aggressive edge hold of a Ramp fin and the quick release of a Free Agent fin.
- Fin Size Impact:
- 0.8" Fins: Offer increased surface area, leading to stronger edge hold, particularly beneficial in choppy water or for riders seeking maximum stability.
- 0.6" Fins: Provide less resistance, resulting in a quicker release from the water, ideal for riders who prefer a more playful feel and easier aerial maneuvers.

4. Údržba
Regular maintenance will extend the lifespan of your Ronix wakeboard fins and ensure consistent performance.
- Čištění: After each use, rinse the fins with fresh water to remove any dirt, sand, or salt residue. Use a soft cloth to wipe them clean. Avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents.
- Inspekce: Periodically inspect the fins for any signs of damage, such as cracks, chips, or excessive wear. Check the fin box area for any stress marks or damage.
- Skladování: Store your fins in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. If removed from the board, store them in a protective bag or case to prevent scratches or damage.
- Kontrola šroubů: If your fins are secured with screws, periodically check that they are snug. Do not overtighten.
