Board: | Starboard iSonic 127 - Boss 6.0 S- 49cm | |
Sail: | North Daytona 9.0 - Epic Race 520cm - Unifiber Freerace/Slalom 220-280 | |
(machine translated in 2023) Set worked pretty well together. With a small sigh and technically good pumping, I was able to plan fairly easily. Didn't feel like the rest of my group planned earlier. Only the A guys were clearly gone earlier, I think they can pump even better and often stood with 9.0+ slalom sails. If the wind was a bit there I could walk high, but if it was less it was on the edge. |

(machine translated in 2023) With a minimal sigh you can already plane, I'm guessing just a few knots of wind less necessary than with the iSonic, few other surfers to compare with. Benno was on the water with a Formula and 9.5. And it weighs about 10 kilos less. Benno could plan more, but always needed a sigh to get away. The S11 61cm is on the small side for this wind, I could hardly walk height, nor could I kick the fin to get board loose. |
