Post subject:  2020 Compass Camo w/Turbo fins question

New to the forum, and I have a question about my new 2020 Compass Camo. I have seen several YouTubes and posts on this forum about adjusting the mast on the turbo fins for more or less flex in the fin. The Camo comes with the 180 drive and turbo fins, but I don't see any way to adjust the length of the fin mast. I have removed the fin, which is held in place with an allen head, threaded shaft, not a pin and ring. The mast is just a smooth rod with no adjustment capabilities that I can see. Am I missing something? Or is this a different version of the turbo fins? What would it take to make these adjustable? From the posts I've seen, that seems like a great option. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

Here is a video explaining the maintenance and tuning of our Mirage Drive GT and 180. He starts discussing the mast adjustment around the 2 minute mark. Hope this helps!

Kickup fins don't have adjusters - only previous model non kickup fins did. That might be what's confusing you on this. Sorry.

I wondered if that was the case. I wonder why they didn't make that avaiable any more. Thanks for the info.
