Gunnar said 421 almost like 420, which has shorter chord.
I loved 695/420 combination that I rode in January and I was persuaded the race stabilizers kick ass and make 325/330 just unnecessary, even for use with freeride wings.

I would agree with this as well. I'm finding I really love those race stabs!

I think what blows my mind is how much the stabilizer effects the ride....I thought most of the performance was in the wing....but apparently the stab does a sh*t ton more than oppose the drag of the rig....in hind sight Ive been heading more and more toward the thin stabs like the Alpine and Levitaz

Any idea where I can buy a Moses 425 Stabaliser?
Can not fine one in Australia.
Wazza,
Google “moses 425”.
Couple of places in aus with that stab in stock: briskites.com.au and actionsportswa.com.au
I contacted both and no stock, websites are out of date, thanks anyway

It would fit quite alright. The shape of the upper surface of surf and kite stabilizers is slightly different but holes match exactly and stabilizers sit very tight and nicely with minimal visual gaps.
Kite stabilizers fit surf fuselage better than surf stabilizers fit kite fuselage. Yet again - without any modifications they work just fine.
