The JS Modern Keel is an upright keel template designed for the JS Red Baron and other specialty fish shapes. Featuring a wide base and a relatively small sweep (rake), this high area keel provides control through the face and pivot in a tight radius.
This upright keel template is designed primarily for traditional fish shapes, but the application extends to contemporary keel shapes as well. It has a lower sweep (rake) than most conventional, wider based keels which allows it to pivot in a really tight radius.The high area and depth not only deliver a feeling of control when pushed harder on the open face, but helps to maintain tremendous speed through roundhouse cutbacks.
