This action will increase stability, holding power and acceleration, but also makes the ski harder to turn. Moving the fin up reduces the surface area in contact with the passing water, resulting in less pressure forced on the fin. This action will allow the ski to initiate turns with less effort but will also decrease stability and acceleration. • Move the fin down to increase stability and holding power • Move the fin up to make the ski easier to turn DIAGONAL ADJUSTMENTS Moving the fin in diagonal directions (“tilting” the fin) will help correct problems occurring on one side of the wake. Diagonal adjustments will increase or decrease the speed of the ski as well as make it easier or harder to turn. Improvements on one side generally decreases performance on the opposite side, so only make very small adjustments to fine tune performance. • Tilting the fin blade forward so it is lower and longer in the front will slow the ski down on the off-side* turn and improve stability. • Tilting the fin blade back so it is shorter and narrower in the front with increased surface exposed at the back of the fin will allow the ski to turn easier on the off-side* turn. Once your optimum performance settigns have been found, mark and measure the position of your fin for future reference. Over time, additional adjustments may be necessary since water temperature, personal fitness, and performance levels can change the characteristics of a ski. Fine tuning your fin will help improve your performance. Every skier’s style is different and there is no right or wrong setting. O’Brien’s adjustable fins allow you to customize your ski to the performance you desire. *Off-Side - Left foot forward off-side turn is on the left side of the wake and right foot forward off-side is on the right side of the wake. O’BRIEN FINS LINE-LOCK ADJUSTABLE FIN: The Line-Lock Adjustable Fin features a 3 point adjustment system to allow exact fin positioning in any direction. The Line-Lock Fin is easily adjusted by loosening the 3 set screws, positioning the blade in the desired position and then tightening the 3 set screws. O’Brien slaloms equipped with the Line-Lock fin are pre-set with the best overall fin position for that ski. Before adjusting the fin from the stock setting it is recommended to mark that position on your fin so that it can be easily positioned back to stock. Please refer to the chart below for suggested fin adjustments to help maximize the performance of your ski. Remember small adjustments will significantly change how your ski performs. A.R.C. (Adjustable Radius Control) FIN: The A.R.C. Fin features a performance blade with elliptical slotted screw holes for customized horizontal adjustments. The A.R.C. Fin is easily adjusted by loosening the 6 phillips head screws on the top of the fin, positioning the blade either further forward or back, and then re-tightening the 6 phillips head screws. Before changing from the stock setting it is recommended to mark that posit...
