Transition from shortboard to longboard

So after 36 years of riding a shortboard on the eastcoast I finally bought a used longboard. The thing is I know bascially nothing about longboards.  

Can anybody give me some pointers. I've riden longboards a couple times...and by a couple I mean literally riden a couple waves, and I was trying to ride it like my shortboard... 

I'm sure I'll pick it up fast but I'm also wondering about fin selection also...

I'm confident I'll pick it up quickly, but I'm curious about fin selection. rainbow obby
