Looks pretty nice for the price to me, for a surf/pump rig.

Re: Slingshot Phantasm Carbon foil launch - 2020

Slingshot has not released any info yet. The above PDF is not confirmed. Sorry, but stay tuned still for the correct info. I make no claim to the validity of that pdf, I just googled "Slingshot Phantasm" & shared the result. https://www.standupzone.com/forum/index.php/topic,35576.0/nowap.html

Re: new redesigned LF Solo vs SS Ghost for foiling

I tested a 10m Ghost over the weekend. It is probably better as a cross-over/dual purpose than a primary free-ride foiling kite. I prefer SST's (lighter bar pressure, drift, turning). I didn't have an opportunity to jump it. Overall it works, but I had a tough time finding something it did better th...

Re: Moses T38 or Groove skate Large for improver?

I haven't had an opportunity to try a groove, although I was quite tempted to buy one a year or so back. Ended up on a red t38 and happy with the selection.
Going smaller will never give you the forgiveness a bigger board does during touchdowns.
I feel that the foil/board combo is paired perfectly.

Re: Ring for RideEngine rope spreader bar

I have found the snap hook on a spare kite leash attached above the chicken loop works well to the handle the load/pull. Then the loop can be opened & attached at leisure.

Re: Moses 2019

re 590: I have read somewhere another needed to make modifications for the 483 on kite fuse, although I did not. imo, 330 felt too skatey, 483 was more stable & slightly better low end. currently happy on 590 w/ 420

Re: Advice needed for new foil board

Also ~85kg & pretty happy w/ the red T38 all 'round.
At this weight, I wouldn't consider the 3''6 dc a light-wind board(also have the standard model). Powered & instantly on foil is a different matter, inconsistent w/ my definition of light winds.

Re: used 14m apollo or 12m gong strutless for LW foiling?

I liked the apollo in smaller sizes for gusty conditions & boosting; not my pick for lw.
The strutless do fly in light winds, although I've found some to be on the gutless side for generating the required power in lw.

Re: Fuselage problem (water inside) !

I wondered what foil, searched your posts & thought this response in your other thread could be related It's the fuselage that is twisted, it occurs because the inserts are glued by hand. LF said it has no impact on performance and up to 1.5cm they consider it normal. Perhaps that crooked glued inse...
