PS - Hi Joe. Haven't seen you in years. I'm the dude who had the blue SAAB and fawn-colored dog named R ... |

Wow. Are you leaving HSM behind, or are you going to design from PA?
As one of two all-HSM sailors in Central NY, Western PA, I'm thrilled and amazed that you're coming here. I assume your HSM add ... |

I had a Berky 295 that, for a period of about 5 years, I don't think I ever was passed. Donated it to a windsurfing club, and I see it on the rack from time to time, but I don't think anyone rides it. |

Perhaps it would have been better to note that the "we" in my last post is referring to a side-bar discussion, in which I'm asking Mr Ingebritsen a specific topic on which his expertise exce ... |

I had presumed that more fins "grip" the wave better. And therefore might turn better, and of course be slower.
In part, slower seems likely due to the fins having toe-in, but toe-in sho ... |

I tend to sail really powered so, I tend to like a larger single fin. Others like to sail less powered and are convinced that more fins are better? Dunno if that applies to you or not.

Multifin boards typically need a very vertical stance. If you are used to leaning out over the water for max lift off of a board and a single large fin, you may not like a multi fin board. Additiona ... |

Guess I'm wrong. The complexity of construction and added cost would seem prohibitive except for specialist gear, but maybe not. With more production boards pushing the $2000 US price range, I would t ... |
