Yep, ordered 😂

And now for something completely different! (after just watching the same day video release of the triple sized 1540S!! th-cam.com/video/WZbAhkIq9o4/w-d-xo.html). A couple of cracker sessions on the 720s this week so I'm feeling ready for the 615. Maybe next year before I'll be ready for this little beauty.

Ordered!

Is it also high modulus (and thin) like the 1300s ?

'Transit', is Transit Reef, Rottnest Island, near the Ferry Jetty. that's the Bathurst Point Lighthouse in the background.

where is this？

wow this looks so freakin fun

Sick take my money lol 😆

What an amazing set up.

Holy Smokes, this zone looks magical for foiling!!

sick music choice and great videography, love it!

making those flat water starts look easy @jamescasey7393 .....If anyone has the opportunity to demo CODE foils do it! I had the chance on Oahu and they blew me away in very small conditions on the 980 short fuse and 150 tail. For reference I'm currently on the Lift 170 HA and KD 13.5 classic tail. The CODE foil felt bigger than my 170HA, pumped better and rolled between turns much smoother without having that "slipping" feeling i sometimes get with my Lift.

Would be nice to know the cost and weight difference?

Is it really necessary? I'm 115kg and I switched from my 19mm Axis 820mm aluminium mast to my own DIY carbon mast, medium low modulus, resin infused frum a 3-d printed core, 850mm long, tapering 17mm to 14mm and I love it. I don't think torsion needs high modulus, I did half and half 300gsm double bias Adhesive Technologies carbon with med/low modulus carbon uni 200gsm chinese carbon and a skin of 200gsm twill and I love it. The only significant torsional forces are in an impact and for the lengthways uni, it is for wingtip breaching that the carbon is really nice. On my Axis aluminium mast, a breach felt wrong, I'm too heavy and the stresses on mast, doodad, fuselage and baseplate create non returning amounts of deflection at their extremes. My carbon mast? Just springy, it feels great. I have considered the layup and I think that slightly angled unidirectional interleaving would be better than double bias. It seems like there is a competition, I think Armstrong even use army surplus utra high modulus carbon, or the high aviation grade in their premium offerings. But unless it's in wings, or you are thinning under 12mm near the bottom, is it really necessary on a mast which mostly has ballanced loadings? I make my own latest foil designs not too dissimilar to yours, also a bit like F-one SK8, similar plan view and my foils are dangerously thin at the ends with a thinning algorithm that takes acount of structural requirements, I do feel springiness in my 7.8 AR 1M span latest wing on med/low modulus carbon layup. There, I'd love to have a bit higher modulus. Anyway, respect to your foils, your designs are among the top foils that I rate design-wise to compare against my own, despite that I'm profoundly happy with my own recent designs 😉

Local hero!

In my humble opinion, it is best to pair small fuse with BigWings, in that way you compensate the slow and stable characteristics of the front wing with the smaller turning radius that gives you the smaller fuse. Same goes on the other way, the smaller the front wing more comfortable you will be with the longer fuse, since the smaller wingspan already give you a lot of numerability. Nice videos!

Can you do a comparison of large fuse + small tail vs. short fuse + big tail.

Great breakdown on fuse's. Thanks from Dougs Water Sports in Hood River! Wind has been pumping - best July in ages!!!

Thid is nice to watch and inspiring me to try my dw for flat water sup foil

Your measurement is from the board bottom to the bottom of the fuse, or top of the fuse?

Are any of you guys proning the 720 with the 85 mast? are there any disadvantages to using a longer mast for prone or downwind?

Ben is my dad

Foiling is cool. Just got a fliteboard. But I was thinking.... surely someone will invent a foil board with a spring loaded front wing to stabilise foil glide (kinda like the aquaskipper but a board with front and rear masts). This would make surfing and pumping easier because it would prevent nose diving and regulate the amplitude of the pump motion.

Thank goodness. Vans be getting smelly! 🤢😢❤

Can’t beat an 80

SUP dims?

Great showcase of technique for both flat water paddling and foildrive, as well as the Code foil range. Impressive!

Feeling bad for big James on the Foil drive😊

As a newb, I’m confused as shit. With some makes talking span, others area, plan shape, projected area, surface area….well bugger me. I feel like giving up before I start! No reflection on any particular brand, it’s just bloody hard starting out when you are on a budget

Foildrive could be considered another discipline now I think.

Great video! I know the video is not about foil drive system but To understand better, The medium setting does that effect the boost setting aswell? I always thought those are two separate settings. Correct me if iam wrong :) but I thought the Boost is the system giving you a little more then maximum power (boost) for a period of time (e.g 15 seconds) and the Medium settings is an overall downgraded power mode after boost has ended to preserve energy. Let me know what is correct :)

I'm in Oregon. How dose one get a demo here other then traveling to California?

Interesting to see what a big difference 7kg makes! Cutting down on the pies.....

I think James will get up on foil drive easier if he uses a bigger board. At medium boost the power is not enough for this board to plane flat on the surface and gain enough speed to lift off.

I want to buy you guys a nice t handle torx driver. The little L shaped keys do the job. But a t handle tool makes multiple changes back and forth like that so much nicer.

Interesting to see a different take on using foil drive for testing. By limiting the power output of the system it starts to introduce more variables again where as on full power its just not an issue! By setting it to medium power things like weight and board selection really come into play. Would love to see James boost up on full power on those tiny foils!!

Awesome video. Thanks guys!

Thorough comparisons. And I dig the sound design.

Thanks boys! That foildrive looks hard to pump vs the DW board.

Awesome clip gents, well done 👍

Great video thx. How does the 1075r go for paddle ups vs the 1300s?

what's the weight and thickness of the Code 80cm mast?

So much work put into this vid!!! Foilers Rejoice!

Hi guys, What are the fuse lengths in cms? I’m considering getting a setup and currently looking at the medium or short fuse. 👀

❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

How does it take off in comparison to the S series? Somewhere in-between the 720 and 850?

Great video!

Anyone have thoughts/preferences for fuse length with 1300s for surfing and pumping? Thank you!

Cool video guys. Would be interesting to do another test with Gen 2 set to HIGH power mode and full 20% boost you would have a very different result. Also a super small prone board vs long DW board are extremely different use caes so that was interesting to see. Well done to both of you paddeling up such small wings. The R's R amazing pun intended

Someone needs to create a Monte Carlo simulator to take in variables to guide us to optimal wing choice : ) { rider: weight / experience / riding style/ } + { conditions: wave size / wind speed } etc Enjoyed trying the new wings during your west coast US visit! Keep 'em coming.
