I'm interested to hear thought on the following..
My thoughts on fins.. I want to start working towards a set of up to 6 race fins for what will eventually be my race kit for the coming season..keen to get your assistance if I can?
So far my sails are;
5.8 - Tush X15 '10
6.4 - Arrows Fusion '05
8.7 - Ka Race '10
I will probably try and find something Ka Koncept 7.0ish to fill the gap..
I only ever had 2 good sails in my quiver and managed with 2 boards and 4 fins..inc one weed..
My current allround freerace is 235 x 660 x 112lt..I may make another one soon about the same, maybe a touch wider if ic and handle the 8.7 and a 44cm..though my other thought is to pick up something 135lt cheap and keep my(make another) midrange board at 67cm and pick up a cheap F2 SX about 90lt for my little one, so..
having done some reading, looking at Vector sizing charts..and some guess work, I reckon the following could be suitable..
44cm Canefire carbon for light wind(maybe Volt carbon if you think so..?)
44cm Slalom Weed(bigger)
40cm Volt
38cm FO Nitro(trimmed down from 40cm.my only fin right now..will give it to my old man later)
36cm Volt
34cm Volt
40cm Torquay 45deg weed(old one max thickness 9% at 45%)
31cm Fin Works(circa '93..9.5% at 42%..will probably relegate this to setting tuttle boxes in which is what it was doing before I cleaned it up to use with the refirbed Windtech slalom!)
I really just need a sanity check and a priority list with budget cost against the list. I am happy with good condition used/ex demo etc
1. 38cm FO Nitro(have)
2. 40cm Torquay weed(have)
3. 44 Canefire
4. 36cm Volt
5. Large weed(recommendation?
6.40?
7.32?
I think the question is..What do you think the top 4-6 ultimate fins would be to maximise my limited sail range? Looking to stick with Vector's if I can..
