Wow.......another thread about this question? 
This topic really gets beaten into the ground.
Some say that skating without fins is cheating, because it lets you get away with not popping your tricks, i.e. initiating lipslides or shuv's without doing an ollie first. These folks usually go on to point out how well fins help you land W2W tricks, which does make sense.
Others say riding finless is just as legit, and it actually forces you to have better board control, since edging without fins takes a little more finesse. I prefer to ride finless, and I have to admit that I do find it a bit discouraging when people on these boards imply that you must suck if you ride finless.
