really nice foil !!

doesnt the mast need to be supported in the KF box on the ends ? do you use two bolts to support it to stop it from rocking in the slot ? or does the taper do a good job of securing it ?

Looks very different than other race foils. Seems like a very long fuselage, small front wing, and large rear wing compared to others. Is that the case or is this just what it looks like in pictures? Are these pictures of the course race setup or speed setup?

this is the speed setup. the foil has 3 various positions for stabilizer to suit rider's style and spot conditions.

New board available to complement the XR1 and Manta 2 kitefoils!
The Comet is based on the pro race but with reduced volume.
