I received this board from Laszlo at KitefoilMiami one week ago. I’ve been able to ride it using Moses 633 on both 71 and 91cm masts. This has been in the Outer Banks so short mast on sound, longer on ocean. I’m 90kg, just beginning to tack.
The board is like an Italian sports car!
So light, small, and sexy!
I came from Dwarfcraft 4’6” and also have new pocket board that arrived at same time. I can’t get off the Temavento to try other new board. The Temavento rides amazing! My tacks are 50% and the board allows some error room on these. So even when not perfect and board can sink, I can recover and ride away. I feel very connected to foil, i.e. in sync.
Great name: Sync.
Not sure race ready is best way to describe it. But it does allow me to haul ass upwind so I can carve the stink out of swell/waves downwind. I’m not a racer nor will be.
Laszlo was great in guiding my selection for this board given my weight and intermediate skill. From reading the descriptions I though the other slightly smaller board would be the choice. I’m very happy with his recommendation.
A big glowing shoutout to Laszlo for his passion and intelligence applied to foiling.
Get this board!
