Re: Canards

I use my XXLW with the 90cm windfoil mast for kitefoiling and Windfoiling. I did try Sup and prone but worked out real quick that first I need to learn how to Sup and prone surf. Also wakefoiling.

I’ve had dolphins with their nose in between the props of our twin rig RIB (400mm gap) at over 15kts.
They are in more control than we think

Re: The Duotone Wing

I have now had two weekends of mucking around on the duotone 5m wing and it is a heap of fun. I have not as yet gybed, tacked or successfully ridden toeside.

Re: Zeek Spit Track Setting

If it’s smaller swell ( under head high) then use the XLW wings

Re: Zeeko screws to secure rear stabilizer and fin keep loosening

The screws are into the G10 thread and as such work fine but a little extra care is needed not to over tighten.

The only other way besides over tightening to damage threads is impact and then usually a side impact.

Re: When will i relax and enjoy my foiling?

Usually it takes relaxation to initiate fun.
