Another day another lesson. Went to Southend even though the forecast didn't look as good, plus it was real south east and I wasn't sure how well it worked in this direction. The main reason for going was to test out a smaller fin F-Hot Speed 20, looking at what others are using this should have been too small but after today I wouldn't use bigger with a 5.7.
You can't go back in time but I feel if I'd used this 20cm in the last weeks it would have increased my speed a marked about. The fin gave so much confidance I'm going to get a 18 and 16, the latter for a proper windy day :)
Another positive, I've lent out my kit the last few runs out and so far everyone who's tried it have hooked right in and loved the set-up (apart from the size of my footstraps), it's good to know I don't have a quirky set-up that only suits me.
