This is my 28 and 32 at 36mph.

Not the best pass but my skiing in the video is my average.

 

Hi Ballers!!

 

I'm on 2018 65inch Vapor pro build and skiing with deep/short setting.

The number is

Length 6.854

Depths 2.522

DFT .776

Wing 9

Boots 73.9cm/29.1in

 

My onside turn is good and off side turn is good as well, but still I think I'm on rear leg through the off side turn.

you can see the tip is high in 1,3,5 off side turn.

 

Do you think I have enough tip engagement or i should fix my skiing form? or should change my fin setting to get more tip in the water?

 

I'm trying to read fin whispering but it's difficult to understand for my english level.

it would be great if you can give my some advices!!

 

Thank you !!!

@Gloersen Thank you for the comment!

Yes I started from factory deep/short setting.

Dropping shoulder in onside turn is kind of my style. My vapor comes around even when I do that. So i am not trying to change my onside form because am trusting the ski.

 

Okay! Thanks!!!!

@Gloersen I have run 12m and got 2 buoy at 11.

I had been trying to fix my dropping shoulder issue but couldn't.

I can do good keeping my shoulder level in onside turn IF I try to do but, when I getting in down cause, start dropping shoulder. I still can run 13m though. But If you have good advice to fix it, i'd be appreciated!

 

you can see how I had been doing it since I ran the course for the first time.

@Ryota I think that @Gloersen's fin recommendations is a good one. I would go back and try those again. Also, you could slightly reduce the depth you are running now and also reduce length. This will reduce fin area and should make the ski feel more manageable/sporty and at the same time reduce some of that excess tip grab you seem to get. May be try these settings:

 

29.1"

2.515

6.839

0.781
