There is a video of the flow fins being used on a Revo. Any of you tried the mods yet?

I'll be interested to see how the flow fins work in a Revolution or an Outback.  It's possible that they are larger than desirable for maximum efficiency in a sit-down pedal kayak.  For example, when bicycling, you can go faster and with less effort by pedaling with a rapid cadence and relatively lightly, than you can by pedaling slowly and with a lot of effort.  I suspect that mirage drive fins which were three feet long and a foot wide would be so much effort to pedal that they wouldn't work well.  But it's also possible that the flow fins would be faster than the turbo fins, without a lot more effort.
