Kited every day with winds from 6-8 knots to 20-25 knots over the 14 day period. I was very familiar with the 633 wing having used it since last summer. It was my first experience with the 683s and T22.
The best top speed I attained with the 633 was 41.2 KPH (22.25 Knots) and the 683s 41.3 KPH (22.3 Knots). I was on a 71cm which leaves little margin for error at the higher speeds.On a longer mast I could easily go faster but.... The average speeds are what's interesting. A typical 1 hr session on the 633 would result in an avg speed around 27-29 KPH. The same session on the 683s was typically around 30-32 KPH. I'm not a straight line type rider. I turn a lot ,upwind down wind carving so your results may vary.
Snip...
683s feels faster, goes faster and it’s a superior wing to 633. I start thinking of 633 really belonging to surf style. The 683s is amazing. I deeply regret I haven’t got it a year ago.WH Lithuania wrote: ↑Wed Apr 24, 2019 7:27 pm
This is on Onda 633 on 111cm mast. Will try 683S when I finally get it, but based on the numbers other posted it doesn't look any faster than 633.
