cheers edge19,,i reprofiled the the wings with a more hydrodynamic/aero profile since you saw it,after chopping the mast down to 670 my learning excelerated straight away,unfortunately now i need the 900 mast back,the stall speed of my foil is amazing low ,,,prob 2/3 knots forward speed,ive used a 17m,12m ad 9m on it,,,the 17m zephyr was amazing in next to no wind
i was furtunate to use a moses silent foil today,i was great !It was faster and easier off the wind and had better average speed( partly due to the longer foil)however even with the lower aspect wings fitted had a higher stall speed than mine,for learning to foil mine is very good,low speeds,lower ride height,can launch in waist deep water,lower stall speed and cheap!The moses is a great foil,loved riding it,i going to either refit the part of mast i removed or make another mast plus im gunna try and make some higher aspect wings,hope to see your beast in action soon...
