I've been waiting for a day like today for some time. Up until now the search for more speed had been slow with a knot here and half a knot there etc but with today’s session I managed to smash most of my previous PB’s.
Decided to experiment a little towards the end of the day and changed my fin from the stock 36cm fin that came with the board to a Select Super-X 32cm. I couldn’t believe the difference for the better that it made but I’d made the change too late in the day as I was cold, tired, cramp was setting in, my concentration was suffering and I was unable to better my speeds from earlier on. In similar conditions I’ll go with the 32cm fin from the start.
Fantastic day.
....was really looking forward to a hot shower after de-rigging but unfortunately it looked like the the car park guy had done a swift one and locked up the changing rooms early L
