How many degress should the rudder be allowed to turn?

I readjusted the angle of my pedals as I always hit it with my toes thus causing an unwanted turn to the right or left. However, lowering it now also caused my rudder to have a lower turn angle at only 20 degrees. It seems sufficient but I just dont know if it will work on all conditions. It used to be around 38 degress. What do you guys suggest?

Best thing to do is go out with a friend & compare turning circles. If you can turn as sharply as the other ski then you know you're fine.

Hey Mark!

Right! ;D

In that case I'd say take your ski out in chop/wind (not too strong!) and see how easy it is to turn into wind from broadside to it. If it's really difficult - you need more rudder!
