HO S1 Settings

I started this thread to get Wade´s attention, had the content in a different topic earlier- Just wondering if the numbers for the HO S-1 on this website are later derived factory settings since they are quite different from the factory settings on HO website? Wade ? anyone?

Re: HO S1 Settings

These settings were sent to us from HO. Since they aren't the factory settings, I would assume they are an upgrade after some of their testing. Try both and find which one is closer for you and then tweak from there. Good luck!

Re: HO S1 Settings

What are the factory settings you're looking at elsewhere? I can't find them on the HO site.

I think the difference is that we posted our recommended settings really early on before HO officially released theirs.


Dave whats the story - should we change our rec settings?

Re: HO S1 Settings

Skied both settings 28 through 35 off @34, both felt ok with the PSC numbers working a little better as the line gets shorter (I think)
the season getting to a stop where I ski and the water is really cold so kind of hard to tell.
In cold water the PSC# worked better with fin moved about .035 forward and .009 added to lenght but I expect them to work well in warm water.
