I received the two doner boards for for the two foils I'm building, they are 157 X 40 ( grey one) and 159 X 40 (Red one), the red one is directional and on the heavy side but has very little tail rocker, the grey one is twin tip and is a very light carbon build, since my friend donated the boards I feel like I want to set up the light one for him so....
how do I figure out where to mount the strut ? I will install front foot strap inserts after its been ridden and location determined, the plan is to only have a front foot strap/straps ( or maybe no straps).
Should I shorten the board to remove some of the tail rocker ? I'm kinda thinking the length will be a good thing considering how narrow these boards are and perhaps the tail rocker will make initial lift off easier?
These kite foil boards are to be used to have fun on and learn technique, speed is not what we are after. I know these boards are not ideal but its what we have and they will be used.
Any advice on strut placement, attitude ( angle) of board ect. will be greatly appreciated.
