Slalom fins for Hypersonic

[<Allan>]

Hi Sukhdev,

Ive got a oportunity to get hold of some Techtronics fins and as you and I are the same weight what sizes would u recommend for the following size sails. 6.0m 6.5m 7.1m 7.8m 8.7m

I have a 30cm Spitfire allready

Hi Alan,

I'm running the following:

Tectonics
spitfire 42 (9.0)
gold wing 36 (7.5)
gold wing 32 (6.5)

The 42 is very versatile, I've sailed it down to a 6.5. For 7.5 in very powered conditins the 36 would be better. If you need only 2 fins I'd go for 42, 34.

The hull is very efficent, you'll be amazed how well you can climb upwind with just the 42.

If you are getting used tectonics fins do check them thoroughly; G10 doesnt hold up super well to aging, if you can see layers of material with white streaking chances are the flex etc is rather tired.

hope this helps...
