Hi all lm getting back into the sport after a 20 year gap. Would lime to know any thoughts comments on what to expect from this fin set up. And some information on the middle fin it is 25cm the outer ones are 12.5. Board is an old Mistral Taloha with a NP 5.6/Combat sail

Thanks

The fins are probably exactly the ones that came with the board. Yeah modern fins are way better, but buying a new fin will probably cost you more than the entire board and I doubt you will really notice the difference.

My advice, just ride 'til you break it!

Give it a try :) then ditch it and get new gear :)
3 years ago I got back into it after twenty years by buying a Tiga 270 and other old gear for $150...only used it once :)...if you're anything like me you'll need bigger gear than you did back then :)

I remember using that same fin when I was 16 and I am now 48. I was just showing my 16 year old son who windsurfs. Great to see.

Ditch them old ones and get a brand new set of K4s.

The K4s will be so different.



They will be yellow. Like this :
