In this wind i am pretty powered up, but not overpowered. Say conditions medium choppy.

For me either my 5.0m or my 5.6m code red with 90 litre i-sonic and 32 vector fin.

Any better combo's i should try?

For me its the Carbon Art 52 with a 6.6 or 5.7 Koncept and a 30 Venom bolted in. Loves the chop and you can just push so hard on the fin

F2 SX68 (68w x 105L) and a 7.8M or 7.0m and a 36cm fin

Im 68kg and use a Neilpryde RSSlalom MK IV 6.2, JP Slalom VI 56cm wide, C3 StingII 32cm, in 18-22knots. If you have trouble with any of your fins get a C3 probably the best slalom fin in all conditions i have had. The new StingII's are even better than the Venoms.
