Hi Gunnar,
Is the 92 mast a thicker one like the 82?
Thanks.
Yes. It is like the 82. It looks massive next to a 91 Kite Mast.

Can you take some side-by-side photos of the 91 and the 92cm mast? It would be interesting to see the difference. Also also I would be interested to hear what is your preferred mast for kite-foiling freeride on a medium size wing like the 633? I wonder if the extra stiffness and drag of the 92cm mast is noticeable when kitefoil freeriding?

I would also be interested in a comparison between the 91 and 92 for free ride kite foiling.

Dose the 1200cm2 wing have a name? Or is it a pre production tester?

Looks nice grigorib. Also interested in name and availability. What stab do you use with it?

I rode 1200 with 310 sq.cm surf and with 425 race stabilizers. 310 feels slower, 425 works well too
The next one I rode was 860 sq.cm wing with 425 stabilizer, same kite fuselage. I got it to make sure I have arrowhead-shaped wing for OBX which often has seaweed problem.
860 has very nice top end and is stable at speed while lowend is what I’d expect from wing with that area. A bit heavier construction, but certainly is a great wing.
