I prefer to test with real blocks instead of models. If you took the white water and made pins with the fins the performance would not be a lot better and maybe worst. Pins are better with thicker bases IMO. Lots to learn yet though. Only been doing it for 4-5 years off and on. Not a lot of thorough testing done yet.
