  1. I use a 13" (wide), but definitely a personal preference. I dock-started a record slalom tournament and noticed a WIDE variety of handles among the top skiers. There was little to no trend in the handles as each was very unique to the skier, almost all were different combinations of length / diameter.
  2. In my experience, our team has about 3-5 greek skiers every year, and they seem to REALLY enjoy the sport/experience, and usually make time to ski and go to tournaments. There is always that one or two that would rather go to something greek, but as a whole, they're usually at tournaments unless they have a mandatory something else to attend. Tournaments are REALLY fun, and once they figure that out, they are hooked.
  3. I'm an intermediate skier (working on consistency at 36mph/15off), and on a 67" 2017 HO CX for well over a year now. I've changed the fin settings only once from factory with the advice from an advanced skier. What I feel is the ski is riding very deep, with little to no "slide" going around the buoy. I'm never the one to blame my ski for bad skiing, I just want to see if I can get a different feel from the ski in the course.

    Question: Would it be better to go back to factory? or try different non-factory settings. Thanks.

     

    Any and all suggestions are appreciated!

     

    Factory: (6.860) (2.510) (0.775) 7

     

    Current: (6.883) (2.500) (0.800) 7
