The new Moses 1000 looks good.
Any details appreciated e.g. area, aspect ratio etc

What were you considering using it for - which type of riding, conditions, rider weight?

I am 75kg and would use it for Wingfoiling and SUP foiling. Currently use 1100, 873 and 790 for these activities.

I bet 1100 is the best of all three

If I only had 1 wing for SUP and Wingfoiling it would be the 1100 and now with the 420 stabilizer even better.
However 873 is excellent for slow lake waves and learning to jybe.
790 is also good in strong wind and learning to jybe as easier to turn at a bit of speed.
790 is also good for kite foiling in 6kn ish light breeze.

If we have wind today, that is what I will be testing. I have kited it once and that worked surprisingly well. I love how you can ride with almost a 3rd of the wing out of the water without it sucking air. I would gauge that it has a similar lowend to the 790. I was testing both back to back with the kite and they both got flying at the same speed. The 1000 has a way more aggressive lift, so you need to be ready for that. I will let you know if I can get winging with it this afternoon.

Hey Wazza Foil, question for you. Regarding the 873, I tried it winging and it worked will, except for the fact that it is so buoyant that when I'm not on the board, or fall, the board/foil always seems to end up on its side, with wings protruding. That make me nervous regarding the wing landing on it in a bad crash. Any thoughts/experience?
I've been winging for only a few weeks and have used the 1100 mostly, but I am looking forward to messing with the 873 more and the 790. Strong winds for the next few days so I think I'll be on the 790.
Lastly, I haven't even tried my new 425. Glad to hear you like it. Can't wait to mess with it!

Hi guys, how do you compare the 873 to 1100, please? Would very much like to hear feedback from people using both like you two
