Do i need fin socks when bodyboarding?

Question

i'm going to la coruna to boadyboard this summer, i was wondering do i need fin socks?

does any one know any good places near surrey for swim fins for boadyboarding?

Answer 1

It depends on the size of the waves - in order to catch a wave you have to travel the same speed

big waves = genrally faster - fins = more speed

small waves = genrally slower - no fins = less speed needed

Answer 2

I never use them at all. I think they are a rip. Get a good set of fins and you should not have a problem.
