Re: Monofoil or "riding stabless", setup and riding

Hi there, here is my yearly update for this old topic: Pumpfoiling is about efficiency, not? Not sure if > 2 m span wings or monofoils will be the future. But as I didn't expect this myself: There are already a few dock starter on the mono: https://www.instagram.com/reel/CgbyWN5FWZG/?igshid=NzZhOTFI...

Re: Monofoil or "riding stabless", setup and riding

@nothing2seehere: Yes I think it is very important to understand a bit of the physics behind, especially where the load point goes with different setups, tells you a lot about how a foil behaves. Three little stories about last experiences on the mono: More and more impressed of how wide the windran...

Re: Triton Foils releases the first accessible monowing: Triton T1

This is my first impression after three days with the Triton T1 How to understand the feel of T1 if never tried The best way to make T1 (1700 cm²) behaviour understandable for users of stabi foils is a simplified description of its profile. The T1 can be seen as a stabi foil with an about 1200 cm² ...

Re: Monofoil or "riding stabless", setup and riding

Hi, yes I agree there are further foils as mulit lifting bi-planes or canards, but I just don't want to make it too complecated with any foil any single manufacturer ever has produced. I just wanted to discuss here monofoils and unavoidable traditional foils with stabilisator and what's new and in m...

Re: Monofoil or "riding stabless", setup and riding

As written in the last post, I originally thought this topic now can be closed as future discussion will be more about the different Monofoil Brands that are going to come up or already started serial production. But as I have seen the wording “Monofoil” started to be used in confusing manner, I’d l...

Re: Flysurfer Peak 4

After a long test in winter inbetween Peak4 3 m² and Peak5 2,5 m² which was a size I was always waiting for (had also a nice 2,5 m² ConceptAir firefly before) My final conclusion was: I now bought another new 3 m² Peak4 and hopefully I will find the time to cut my old preserial Peak4 3 m² down to ar...

Re: Triton Foils releases the first accessible monowing: Triton T1

@NNOwind: I would be carefully with this adapter, don’t underestimate the lever forces when one wing tip rises above water and you ride with full load on the other wing side. This may pull out your M6 inserts out of your moses strut, even if you don’t jump. As the M6 inserts are just designed to hol...

Re: Chicken Loop Bye Bye?

Well, I also thought it is not allowed to post potentially commercial like test reports for some brands, but commercials for: pirate copies are allowed?
