ABSTRACT:
A fin (1) for a windsurf board is constructed from fibers (5) which have a preferred fiber direction with the majority of the fibers lying in this direction, the preferred direction extending at an acute angle (a) to the longitudinal axis (4) of the profile of the fin blade (2). This allows the fin to distort and to change the properties of its profile in a defined manner when loaded.
