Are weed fins compatible with boards with tail cutouts or will the board be more prone to cavitation?
A mate is selling his almost new JP for this reason. I am just curious I imagine the WA sailors will have an opinion on this!
It's more likely a crap weed fin not the combination of the weed fin and tail cut outs. Heaps of people use weed fins where I sail and they are used on all sorts of boards from wave boards to dedicated speed boards with no issues.
No problems Mistral Nick, loads of JP Weed users in WA using slalom boards with cut outs. JP Weeds have a pretty good rep.
ha ha guys , only a few people use them here , mainly to avoid the carnage from the odd plastic bag'
I only use weed fins for racing and they are alright just a little
Less powerful and they increase your gybe radius
