    New CG Fin from Denali

    in Skis Fins Bindings

    Posted

    2016 68" Radar Vapor - 6.960, 2.460, .775, 9 Degree std wing (Stock settings with DFT + .02")

     

    Started at stock settings with DFT -.03". Skied narrow with too much drag.

     

    Next was stock settings. Width was back, Drag was gone, Off-side was great, On-side too angular (snap turns into slack line).

     

    Then tried stock settings with DTF + .02". Holy PB maker! Fast, early, wide, turns on a dime (both sides), and totally connected to the water. I've skied over my previous practice PB 7 of the last 10 sets. The CG fin is for real.

     

    I tried a few other adjustments of length and wing angle, but ultimately finding the right DFT with my settings from my previous fin was all that was needed to free up the ski, reduce drag, and dial in the turns.

     

     

    Lining boat up for course

    I find that several quick bumps of the throttle in and out of gear and small steering adjustments makes it easier to get lined up. If the boat is in gear too long that's when oversteer happens or you end up dragging the skier trying to get lined up.

    USAWS is now USA-WSWS and other news

    @sunperch That's the way I'm reading it.

    Individual membership = $19.95

    Family membership = $30

    Active under 25 = $35

    Active over 25 = $65

     

    So basically, if you and your family are USA-WSWS members to attend tournaments or to attend sanctioned practices all season long, you can expect the following in your membership fees:

     

    individuals = price increase

    family of 2 = same price as 2 individual memberships last year

    family of 3 (one adult, 2 children) = price decrease

    family of 3 (2 adult, 1 child) = price increase

    family of 4 or more = price increase
