I currently have 91 (93?)cm Carbon mast, but would like to have a shorter one, and thinking abt different options, ie. alu vrs. carbon 80cm masts. Alu obviously heavier than carbon, but for wavesurfing, would I notice this weigh somehow and what about the other downsides of alu, and are there any n...

Hi Everyone, I have no problems going upwind without foiling. Either with a Foilboard or a SUP without a foil. Horst Sergios Tips about Body Weight forward and Fin/Foil farther back are correct. Here are a few things I can say add to that. 1) A Daggerboard does not really work well. It can actually ...

I’ve finally decided to get a 633. Now i’m wondering if i should go with 82cm or 91cm mast. I’m heavy, like 100kg naked. I heard that 91cm can be kind of flexy... My primary idea was to go with the 91cm, cause we got a lot of chop and small wave at my spots. Looks like 82cm mast is stiffer... Anyon...

Could you name them please? Thanks! I am not going to do that. It is not my place to shame brands on this forum. -- G...

PS if you look at the Naish video of them jumping it, it hardly deforms under the strain. Quite a contrast to the V1 Naish wing that was a one-size-fits-all floppy noodle....The sport/technology is progressing quickly :D Wouldn't some deformation be desirable? A flexible wing should give a bigger w...

You can check out my full review of the 790 if you have not done so already.

Got a mate who has a 633 on the 82cm mast. He has a problem of the mast to fuselage screws loosening during use, one in particular is barely finger tight at the end of the session. I’ve had a close look at the threads and screws and can’t see any defects. The mast doesn’t bottom out in the base of ...
