Tried in strong wind till about 18knts and find my HWR very manageable. Can anyone tell me more about the design characteristic of this fin with reference to my other fins .

Which VMG fin do you suggest for sailing in condition less than 12 knots. Cheers. Kostas GRE 737 Hi Sean,

I actually wasn't aware Techtonics were still making FW fins of any description as they actually had these aluminium fins back 4-5 years ago but I figured they'd stopped making them by now. I would think aluminium fins would be hard to really control the flex/twist in such a large area fin - fine for speedsailing, but probably not viable for FW fins. @ Georgi – I have never seen one of their Fusion fins in the flesh before.
