Futura 121 Wind Test Spezial

Hello, I read in the test "The fin performs very well but we got more from the board with sails below 7,5m². Means that the fin must be larger for a bigger sail or means that the board is general better to surf with sails under 7,5m².

I will use the board with 8 and 7 GTX

Thank you

in general a 44 cm fin is good for a 7.5 sail
in general for a board like this, the ideal sail is 7.0-7.5
i use a 48 cm fin for 8-oh sails
this gives more lift and upwind capabilities
have even used a 53 cm fin with the 8-oh

all depends on you, conditions , etc [

I think, 48cm is too large. OneFootOff is 47,8cm.

48 - 47,8 = 0,2 cm = ha ha
