I think 950 will be really exciting wing for winging and replacement for 790/1100
Grigorib - Do you think that the new W950, if it has an area of 1450cm2, could be used as a light wind kite foil in the same way as the W790, or is the span too wide to be practical?

I guess the W950 will be around 1600cm² to 1800cm² in size to fill the gap between the W790 (1550cm²) and the W1100 (2100cm²). The photo shows it's size against the W1100 wing.

Ah I didn't realise that it was confirmed. I'm surprised they didn't bring out something half way between the 1100 and 790

I expect a stiffer alternative to the 91cm mast like the 72 and 82 (I.e. 92cm).

Looking on the SabFoil website, under kitesurf / masts, they have a M91Y mast (Youth foil class IKA) listed.
Anyone know how this compares to the standard M91 mast (which is now not listed as an individual component, but still sold in kits)...?

Has anybody both 671 and 718 wings? What is the difference between these wings? Stability at high speed, max speed ? At the moment I have 645 and thinking to change to newer...

I rode 720 (same as 718 except for surf fuselage) and 637. The 637 is way faster. 720 has much better lowend but is fairly thick and slow.
I’d say 671 would be very similar to 645. If you’re looking for slower/lightwindier, get the 800
