customski

@jenksski I'm in Wa too and could put you in touch with either Kd or D3 people. I had a Kd demo here for a while last year. Easy to demo d3 here too and of course Radar. Send me a message

So over the last month I've tried rff instead of lff. Its fun and I've got up to running the course at 30 mph. Apart from the fun I'm finding using the muscles on the other side of the body beneficial. Got a long way to go to match the left side but it certainly makes you think and takes some seriousness out of it.

@SkiJay Do you think the key points of the fin whispering book still apply with the two new fin designs? In particular the Le neutral adjustments?

I just ran my feather frame through the drill press so now its a series of slots, easy enough to do and looks neat. Probably should come that way. Should fit on most skis now.

The Cg fin shouldn't need a washer at all. The latest ski i have tried the Cg fin on was turning like a school bus. 67 Helix with Double Radar bindings, I was about 1/8" forward of stock recommendations. Pulled binding back to 29.75 and it came alive.

My "borrowed ski" after using Denalis for nearly 3 years. Definitely dont blow Denali tails as often.

I'm going to try next free ski day.

Today on our local lake in Western Australia.

Good work Joel Came across really well.

Thanks Paul. Good stuff.

Thanks. Happy to try it out. I had trouble trying to add a second ski. Also need a Denali option

I tried the D3 with a cg fin yesterday and I will be adding a washer for the next set. It felt good overall but offside overshadowed the onside. Hoping the washer will even it up.

I've got the CG fin on an earlier model Denali and very happy with the improvement. I had a prototype CG fin also off the Denali which now fits in a D3 fin box, took meat off the front mainly and also some off the rear where it slots in. So if you can only find a Denali specific fin, rest assured its not too hard to make one fit in other brands. Looking forward to dusting off the D3 with the new fin!

Great webcast, site and skiing. Well done to all

As a repeat Denali customer I can appreciate the fact the Adams do their very best to keep all their customers happy to the best of their potential. I was blown away by the time and detail they have given me and my son in our quest to learn the skis and improve our potential. I can only imagine there are many more people they do this for. Please dont be disheartened and when the fins finally arrive I am sure they will be worth the wait. Thankyou Adams, we all want your ski expertise but need to keep in mind you have families and other commitments besides us slalom nuts. Keep up the good work guys, it certainly doesn't go unnoticed.

There's one for sale in Australia too, on a Facebook site called ski bay

The older white Toyota and then the Grey one that i still own and love.

Been thinking of you Jim, keep on fighting and know we all have you in our thoughts. Lets hope its not your last tournament

@S1Pitts The new fin block still has an offset screw but settings at this stage dont advise running any. From what i can see Adam has said the Denali fin block is longer/has different hole spacings to other brands so maybe the length of the fin is less to suit other brands. I dont think its thicker. As far as the wing being lower I cant say I feel an obvious difference, it just seems placed right for that fin. I am using the ski model before the c65 but have been on one and I can say the fin helps the older ski just as much. I am sure it will feel good on different brands. When I try it on my D3 in the shed I'll let you know.

Just skied on my 3.4 with the new fin, feels great, comment from the boat was it looks dialled in and the buoy count was better than expected. Thanks Adams

I went from a Concept to a D3 and it was a user friendly easy transition That was a Nomad but most D3's are easy to just get on and ski.

Mine went tongue inside but wouldn't think it was anything other than your personal preference

I have followed the Adam's theories and gate videos for quite some time now and have tried to adopt the changes required. I couldn't feel the gate as described the first few tries but yesterday's set I certainly did. I dont know whether skiing on a Denali is a prerequisite but wow when it comes together it really does open your eyes. Cant wait for the next set!

@RazorRoss3 sorry it is 28 off 34 mph

@adamhcaldwell thanks for the fin tips. The wing is 8 degrees currently and all i have ever done is adjust for a little more tip bite from standard settings about 12 months ago. I have a c65 so my caliper work has come into play a lot more over the last few months @RazorRoss3 we are in Western Australia at Bonneys ski park.
