When I've seen fins they tend to have the fibres running at +/- 45 degrees (if your looking at the part from the side) so that in theory would make it stiffer in twist but have slightly more side to side flex, to be honest on a part like that though I don't think it will make a huge differenct to its performace, how many layers of the 160g are you using? you could like joe said alter the orientation on each layer to make the stiffness even.
