What bar lengths do you guys find work well? Short 43 I liked on the peak 4 (4m). Trying to find out what to try for the hybrid 5,5.

It is quite tricky to dockstart. Try landing on it with the foil high and glide half the mastlength down beofre doing the first pump.

I use the 400 with the 633, makes it more fun than the 483, but 483 better in light winds. How does the 633 feel on the HS700, it would certainly liven it up more being closer to the mast verves the old 710? Havent tried the 633 on new fuse. Should liven it up and reduce front foot pressure. W799 c...

799 is a lot more pitch unstable as it uses the s399 stab. I would say at least as maneuvrable, wing is closer to the mast with new HS fuselage and is thinner so easier to turn around. Low speed lift is quite similar as it is higher aspect

Overall a great wing!

Unless you live in a spot with good waves I view winging as a 15 knot plus sport. Makes it so you can use a smaller board, foil and wing and also builds some waves. Less wind than that kitefoiling is more efficient and can use a smaller foil there aswell. Potential to have the same foil for winging ...

New foil wing. W1250 (2400cm²) The SAB website says "compatible only with the new high strength fuselage F700-HS" My understanding is that the new F700-HS fuselage uses larger M8 bolts. Does anyone know whether this fuselage is backwards compatible? I.e can I use my old W1100 wing on the F700-HS fu...

Also heard of people using a Swage Eye Terminal End.

Seems to work very well, thanks!

Mostly wanted to assure anyone reading, that its not a piece of cake and that board management is critical. Yes, I agree. It requires some patience and technique, should be practiced close to the beach before venturing out further than it is fun to swim in my opinion. But with a bit of practice I a...

I’ve heard of this technique a few times but what do you do with your board? By the time I did the swimming and drift, I think my board would be a mile down wind, assuming it didn’t head directly for the lines and kite. Hi, I have the board next to me while swimming to the kite, then I sit on it to...
