Sabfoil 1100 matching stab

Hi all, Which stabilizer would you match with a sabfoil 1100 for winging. For reference I'm a beginner that can now foil consistently on both tacks and working on gybes. I'm 230lb.

I got on foil in the first try and made a gybe in the second one. My second time was on another friends gear. 75 lts board, 1450 sqcm foi...

Re: One 10m kite

A mate has a nice sailing catamaran, heads north each winter on it up to the Whitsundays Islands, we are in Oz. After several failed trips taking his kitefoil gear, he learned to wing, it has made all the difference. Just throws it over the side, jumps in and off he goes. Just too much hassle with ...

If you’ll consider foil kites…

I’m 160lbs and my Flysurfer Soul 6m is that kite for me. 10-30+ knots hydrofoil to twintip. Being heavier, you might need an 8-10m.
not possible while launching from boat. It is doable, but way to much risk :-)
