Hi, i ordered 3 Sizes of Fluids (XXL 100cm 1850cm2, XXLS 96cm 1750cm2 and XL 91cm 1500cm2) to get an alternative for my Curve XL that is faster- result the XXL is similar to my W1100 from Sabfoil- good glide, fast, but not for super lowwind like my Curve XXL- that one has 1000cm2 more surface, the XXLs has a lower AR so it is good for manoevers, jumping etc and is just a bit less pumpable than the XXL due to 100cm2 less surface than XXL. The XL is super reactive but needs a bit of wind in the wing, pumping without wing just possible for a few seconds...quality is nice but a bit on the heavy side compared to Sabfoil-Stuff- but on the monobloc 85cm and the large veloce stabilizer a very nice clean setup...no screws i have to worry after sessions, i use the sabfoil now mostly for kitefoiling because the weight is here much more an issue for strapless airs than with the wingboard that offers more lift during the jump due to much larger surface..basically the speed is nice and the wing-handling is effortless because in gusts you accelerate much faster without too much frontfoot-pressure...
Hi, in this short clip i do a brief review of the Fluid XXL-H with Pro Alu Fuse and Fluid Pro 47cm Stab, 85cm V2 Carbon Mast...basically a thin profile with tips bent to the upside to avoid spinouts after breaking the surface..works pretty well but needs some power to get flying..impressive upwind and glide and still pretty reactive for 122cm wingspan
