I had a look at the site but could not see what they are made from. Are they G10?

Yes, G10. I think some fins are available in G11 too.

From http://www.mxrwindsurfing.com/about-mxr/
What are the limitations of G-10 and G-11 materials? The limitation is when the design reach the limit of the material stiffness . So if those limit are not reach G10 design can be as good as carbon fin ,we prove it at Luderitz.

Are there advantages over glass/glass-carbon/pure carbon fins? the advantage of G10/G11 is the short development cycle . With carbon there is no limit on stiffness regarding outline and thickness but development cycle is very long to found the recipe of carbon layer position and orientation . So it's better to have a good proven design fin in G10 than a carbon fin not completely tuned due to lack of development !

Will mXr will also brind Carbon fins? For sure because with carbon mold technology we can push the limit of G10 to propose specific product .

What will be the major changes compared to the G-10/G-11 fins you now designed? major changes will be in big size fins , we can design with thinner profile with same stiffness , and use different carbon layer to better control twist and flex in order to propose more fins behavior to sailors .

Finishing is A+ and unmatched in quality. You have to see and feel them to believe the standard we set in fin building.

The UFO and Katana Race are also available in G-11. This material is suited for lighter riders or riders who are looking for a bit softer feel.
