What type of lightwind board?
Posted: Thu Jul 03, 2014 2:34 pm
Hi guys,
I have a TT as my main board but as I live in an area (Central Europe) with mostly light to moderate winds I'd like to buy a LW board for my quiver.
Now, the question is what type of a board? The options, as I see them are:
1) Big TT
2) A "race" board such as RRD K-Free 60 and Airush Sector
3) A surfboard or Mako
4) Flysurfer Fkyracer
5) Anything else?
Can anybody please post the pro and cons of each option? As a former windsurfer I am looking at the RRD K-Free 60, but then again it's quite big to fit in the car... but I guess I would be able to ride in lighter winds than with a big TT/Flyracer (?) I'd also love to learn to ride waves on a surf board, but as the closest wave spot is 1000km away I don't think a surfboard for light winds + surf is really a good option for me right now.
