...For learning, I would recommend using a washer/shim on the rear wing rear screw to take the nose down slightly while learning...
any idea if the CRX rear wing shims would fit on the HiRise rear wing? these could be easily 3D printed.

I've got the Cabrinha Hi Rise Speed and this is my first foil. After three sessions I was able to learn to ride full tacks in both directions. My first three sessions were on the 60cm mast then I went to the 85cm mast which didn't feel much different. I wouldn't say its super hard to learn on. I haven't tried gybes and tacks yet and that may be much harder since you need to maintain a lot more speed from what I understood.
