Hi
I would like to hear what kites/masts you foilers at the forum think is great for an easy progression on my foil.
Mast:
61 vs 71 cm mast (learning on the moses 590 wing) im thinking the 71 is still usable in shallow water after learning to foil and that the 61 its just a struggle to not ventilate the wings + something to sell after learning? Already got the 101cm mast to use later, and its been a bit too hard to learn on.
Kites:
Kites that Ive been looking for are the New Ozone Alpha in 8m or 6m
or Ozone Reo 8m/9m
How would the Reo and Alpha compare thinking easy handling for foiling? would the Reo be more versatile?
Fone Breeze v1 in 11m, smallest made was 11m but maybe a good deal on the used market is worth it.
I guess the Breeze is similar to Alpha?
Flysurfer Soul in 8m.
Could be the best option that deliver all I need, just a bit afraid that it is too powerful / not drifting alot while foiling.
And its a bit sensitive to sharp stuff (cut off reeds) at my not so great local beach.
or Flysurfer speed5 in 9m
I been looking to this kite alot and I guess the only thing it does better then the soul is better upwind ability (im just guessing since its higher AR) Never tried the soul, but sonicfr thats similar too speed5.
It seems that no one is promoting the speed5 since the soul came out.
Good things about speed5 would be a bombproof construction and that its cheaper to get now.
What kites would you foilers suggest?
Thanks!
