Thanks a lot for your experience, really appreciate it. There are not waves where I live, but I am really seduce by the playfull hability of Peak4. I foil only for fun, not race, and not to jump with foil (yes with TT). Could you say Peak4 can give me more fun than Soul 6m?
And for 11 to 15 knots with 679 or 633 Moses wing (72 kg) Should I buy 5 or 6 M Peak?
Thanks a lot.
Jose
Hi Jose,
Don’t know the Moses wings, I have Ketos Kool, WaveXL and FreeRace.
11-15 kts is Peak4 5m for me.. or Soul 6m.. both giving fun can’t decide for you what’s more fun.. (for me the Peaks are) BUT.. if you intend to learn new things it’s easier with the Soul 6m.. more to the edge of the window and you will screw up things and get the kite in the water.. swimming in with a Peak4 isn’t really a problem if you pack it up nicely but it spoils the fun factor a bit..
You must accept that a swim in will happen.. I have successfully launched the 4,5 and 11 on the water, relaunched on the water and swam in with them..
Can’t remember a swim in with my Souls by rider failure, light wind failure one time on the 12m…
Suggested option for a smaller and faster front wing is a good one too, had one session with my FreeRace front wing with my Soul 10m.. than I felt why racers rig big, should have taken the 12m for higher speed.. it’s fun too
I think the Soul 12m will do it from 6/7kts till what you can dare.. 15kts is no problem at all.
