Fin for Futura 101 - 2009

DEN-Kent · 4th October 2009, 12:18 AM

Hei kevin,

Can you suggest a fin size for this setup:

Futura 101 2009 Wood
North S-Type 7,3 2008
Level: intermidiate
Weight: 75 kg. (165 lb)
Wind conditions: 10 m/s (15 to 20 knots)
Water: Chubby

The local surfpusher is selling the MFC SL-2 fin, and I don't know if the 34, 36 or the 38 fin is the right size.

Have you got any sugestions?

I would try out the 38. With the choppy water and lighter winds it should be good to have a bigger fin..

Kevin,
Would this setting be too big for a 75kg guy on the IS101 :

Deb Sl2 39cm
RS racing 7.8

I really like the board with a 36 with 7,0 or 6,2. I also tested the 101 with 8,1 and could sail fine, but never tried this combo in competition. Just remember it was hard work to give a certain lift to the board. I used a 42 fin.

Cheers,
Chris

Ken,

It is on the big side but it will work really good still...
