Can anyone shed some light for me please. I am thinkging of buying a 2014/15 Isonic 87. I have heard rumours that some may be developing stress cracks behind the rear footstraps and are not cover by factory warrenty. Is there any truth in this rumour??
Thx
Kempsta
I have i97 2014, got it second hand from a very good sailor that I am sure sailed it to the limit and it looks very solid and cracks free to me
i've got 2014 90 & 107, 2015 130 all in carbon, all are fine. Have seen many other 2014/15 carbon isonics, haven't seen any cracks in them. The graphics are poor quality on 2014 boards & they can easy get little dints in them from rocks/harness/storage but that's about it.
Isonics rule .I absolutely punish my boards through the chop being 110kg .my 2014 90 ltr got a hairline crack when I first got it .only because I tripped a rail in jibe and stomped
The deck to hard I mean really hard to stop a catapult.
Any other carbon board would have done same or worse.
Also have 97 2015 and 117 2014 .

select s09 29-35cm, old faithfuls so im not much help there, we dont have that many fins available here to test against. There is bit of discussion on fins for them here-

cro169 , i ended up with a black project rs 34cm in my 90 , it was perfect for all conditions
Cro, I'm using the iS90'14 with a 34cmSR7 for the 7.0 on flat water, a 32cm Winheller for 6,2 and choppy conditions. I tried a 32cm Talon recently and liked as well as the wind is max for the 6.2 but as soon as the wind drops, the board sticks too much to the water with my 87kg.

2014 IS90 Drake R2R DW Slalom 5.2 - 30cm 5.7 - 32cm 6.3 - 34cm 7.0 - 36cm
Board is pretty fin sensitive, the Drake R2R DW are a pretty safe best. In the smaller sizes I am told that there is not much out there that is better than the these fins.
Black project r type
Tried s type didn't like them
Both 90 and 97 I can use 7.8 overdrive with 37.5.
Rock solid fin.
