The Story:
In the Spring of 2002 we started manufacturing fins out of Carbon Composite for ourselves and found dramatic results. We found that the correct fin flex is far more critical to your skiing success then anyone thought. Just like with a ski, a fin that is too stiff is unforgiving. The aluminum fin that came with your ski is a good starting point but is too stiff for most ski/skier combinations.
The Coyote Brothers Research Carbon Composite blade has a softer flex and faster rebound then your stock aluminum blade. For most shortline skiers changing from a stock aluminum blade to a Carbon Composite blade will result in better consistency, smoother turns and a greater margin of error at the end of the turn. Skiers in the Jr. and Sr. divisions using softer blades skiing shortline at slower speeds experience much tighter turn radius.
The Theory & The Feeling:
The very end of the turn is where the highest percentage of the skiers inertia is pushing on the blade. This is also the point where a Carbon Composite Blade will flex substantially more and then rebound faster. The additional flex or "give" at the end of the turn with a Carbon Blade dampens the hookup just enough to give the skier a chance to improve body position and prepare to head for the wakes. This slight delay also allows the ski to finish with more angle. The "Feeling" is like you have a softer tail ski at the ball (without a loss of acceleration at the wakes).
