Takuma Kujira, Armstrong HS1550

I am a novice wingfoiler on local bays, riding upwind and
downwind on wind swell. At 68 Kg I am riding a 95L board with a
5m wing. I currently use a Takuma Kujira 1210 on a 75 cm mast.
It works for me so far, but it has very sharp edges. I have been
told some people “shape” the wing by sanding off the sharpness,
but I am reluctant to modify a precision design. I am interested
in any comparison in performance of the Kujira and Armstrong HS
foils (in the 1400-1600 cm^2 area range: I believe the Armstrong
HS1550v2 is similar in area to the Kujira 1210). I would
exchange a bit of performance for safety ( the Armstrong seem to
have blunter, more rounded corners). Would anyone on this forum
have some comparisons on the two foils? Thank you for your
advice.
