Fin Adjustments for Strada

[jedgell]

I've been on the Strada for about a month, and have it set up with Rini's settings. 6.850, 2.505, .75, 9 deg wing. Overall the ski feels great, the only thing i'm struggling with is getting width. Anyone have a suggestion on what settings might help this? I also have a Slot Fin I was thinking about trying, thoughts?

Try Rossi's settings. I went with his settings on a 69 and the ski was more stable and wider. The exact opposite of what should happen when you take out length and depth.

Using the Schnitz Slot Fin on a 67"

6.535(7.007)/2.559/.085

Plenty of width, quicker, might be worth a try if you have one

jedgell - your Strada left the factory with a perfectly good fin, and if you want to get width, put a little more umph into it your pull between the finish of your turn and the first wake, that way you'll get a farther "cast out" off of the second wake to the buoy line.

Thanks for the suggestions, think I'll try Rossi's settings. I bought the ski used, so I didn't know what the stock settings were.

What size ski are you on? What boots are you using and where are they located?

Im on a 67, boots at 29.5". Front boot is a Strada, rear is an RS-1. I'm skiing 36 mph, averaging a few at 32 off. I'm sure most of the feeling narrow is my skiing, not the ski, just wondering if there was an adjustment that could help. Thanks.
