Hi Bubi,

This with wide board you need a fin a have a good flex (soft) in light wind to get the lift. Stiffer don not give you this important effect to drive over the water and accelerate.

R13m rake +10cm under 15 knots will not work really good, the board will never get the lift and will push water.

R13 H rake +5cm, you will loose in angle with that one.

So I recomand you the R19 soft -- rake+8cm under 15 knots and the 13 medium rake + 8 or + 6cm over 15 knots.

All the best
