Settings for 66" MPD

2 things here,

1. Chris, those settings you alerted me to on my MPD made a huge difference, I couldn't believe the amount of carry out I was getting, what should wing be at? 8? Anyhow thanks.

2. Hey JP! Where did you get that little jack-knife style wing guage, I gotsta have one!!!

I run 9 degrees on the wing.  Where is JP's picture of his wing gauge? I probably gosta have one too!  I love gadgets!

Re: Settings for 66" MPD

I ski 34mph, does that make a difference? And I have no photo of JP's device but it is cool. It's like a little jack knife with settings that turn into angle guages from 6 to 10 degrees, and with half degrees too.

Re: Settings for 66" MPD

Chris,

Could you give your latest recommended settings for a 66'' MPD with RS1 boots (including distance to the back boot)

I see in your table that you posted 6.85 length whereas last year it was something like 6.836 or so.

I would just like to make sure I have the latest...

Thanks for your help, Jan

Re: Settings for 66" MPD

Thanks Chris. Forgot to say I use the gold fin. I guess the above settings apply to it?

Kind regards, Jan
