BUMP. Can anyone confirm whether the Fone Mitu Convertible has metal threaded inserts or just the nylon/plastic block and self tapping stainless steel screws?

thanx again

It's true Mitaka but if I just spent 800 dollars on a board I don't want to drill holes and put some aftermarket inserts I want it to work plug and play. While on the topic, are fone using threaded inserts and metric bolts for straps or nylon /plastic block with pointy ssteel self tapping screws on ...

Renaud you read my mind! I was just wondering about your kfbox adapter... Working with the f1 boards. The picture you included is with their dedicated foil board... Can you comment if the Manta is properly balanced to work with the Mitú convertible surf? In regards to the front footstrap placement? ...

Thank you Mitaka! Now only have to rob a bank and I can have my dream setup.

so is the KF box totally non compatible with TUttle or Powerbox system that almost every other foil manufacturer is using??

I like the board very much but am interested in using a foil with a POWERBOX connection.

ANy dealers please respond thank you.!

BUMP BUMP...anyone riding this SPUD model in decent waves can comment on performance...difference with the PUREWAVE models..etc??

Anyone from AXIS care to comment on the choice of finboxes for the FOILBOARD SPud convert?

thanxx

Id like to give this topic a BUMP... from what I can see and the little foil riding ive done...I cant really understand why a short/fat and reinforced surfboard would be a BAD combination with a foil..?? Within seconds, once you have the feel for it..the board is flying above the water..and cant rea...
