Hey guys
I’ve just bought a brand new 2018 Freewave STB Team Edition 95 and took it for its first time on the water on Friday. (The dealer had it in stock for a while!)
I had it in 3 fin configuration with the standard fins that came with it. (19cm and 10cm side fins)
To be fair, I was sailing badly anyway but I found with a 5.9 North Super Hero on a very flat North Sea, it always felt on the verge of spinning out. The tail would start to break away, but not go “full on sideways”, although it did break away completely once or twice.
I’m planning on using this board with 4.7, 5.3, 5.9 and possibly 6.3 sails. I’ll be doing North Sea bump and jump rather than full on wave sailing.
historically, I’ve always spun out on my boards. I’m not sure if it’s a case of always having bad fins or whether there’s some technique issues at play.
does anyone have any suggestions on good fins for this board? I really want to banish my spin out demons for good!!!
cheers
