I’d love to know the same thing!
This is really helpful thanks. It sounds like there is enough of a difference to get both the 13.5 & 14.5 Progression tails? . 
Progression tail is sharp! Contemplating dulling with 2000 grit

I’m more worried about the wingtip of the front wing
I rounded and thickened the wingtips of the tail and front wing
Trailing edge of the tail is sharp but you’re unlikely to hit it.

I think trailing edge of tail may actually be the MOST likely part to hit on a foil, by accidentally kicking it underwater while walking a sandbar etc.

Erik says the 14.5" with the wing tips chopped is the move. I still need to chop mine. Will report back once I do.

I agree. Contacted the back of an Axis tail recently after falling off the back of my DW board with a coil leash. Luckily it hit me without much force or speed. It was still enough for some claret though!
I had a takuma tail pop me in the heel from a bad takeoff which resulted in 6 stitches. I try to sand down the trailing edges a good amount now. Dont want to wear crocs for another month straight again.
Had my 13.5 out a few times now prone 73kg with both P140 & 170 medium fuse 0 shim (actually just flat on the fuse).
Really impressed, feels solid/dependable throug turns, it’s fast & pumps great.

Anyone tried them with H2 or Vyper?

I’ve used the 14" with the H2 190 and 210. Works great. I feel like those foils need a lot of shim, and that is no different with the Prog stab. Very fast (even with the shims) and underrated setup in my opinion.

Sweet. You try the 14.5" with the p140 or 170?
Love the 13.5 progression on the 140 and 170 short fuse 0 shim.

Got first 3 sessions on the 13.5, what a big difference I was not expecting from the 13 G10. A nice increase in speed and glide and overall efficiency.

did you chop chop?
Not yet, but gonna try and do it next weekend.
Hi @mgudwin
Did you cut down your tail? How was it after? I am torn between getting the 13.5 progression tail or chopping my 14.5. The bank balance is in favour of the chopping!
Still haven’t gotten around to it lol. I don’t have the tools to get it done, so still working on it. From what I understand though, the 14.5 chopped will still be a bit different from the 13.5 stock/chopped, so I guess it depends more on do you want a larger tail or smaller tail. Personally, I’m preferring the 14.5 to the 13.5 as I like a little more stability and pump nowadays, but always paired with the short fuse for the 170/200p’s.
I might be willing to trade you my 13 for your 14, let me know
