previously the 90 dlab now the new 84

@@Youngfoiler1977 hi I’ve not got 900 but use the s165 on the 750 & 620 with +0.3 shim. Turns better just lose a bit of pump if you are downwind paddling.

@@Youngfoiler1977 I’ll swap the s165 for a h165 if you want 🤙

I love the S series as well. I just used the s210 on the 900G2 in 18 knots Glides and turns amazing. Will try the S165 and see what I gain and losse

@@M78-y7r no I use the Skybrid for all winds. 5’8 for light & 5’4 for windy at 87kg. if you mainly do freestyle jump tricks then the Sky Style for everything else the Skybrid is better

@@ferdinandvaneeckhout8544 no problem for you to go on 5.5 dlab in 9 knots. I can go on it with glide2 dlab 750 on skybrid 5’8 & I’m 87kg. You prob won’t want to be on it in 22knots though but if the odd strong gust it can handle it 🤙

@@pastyadventuresthanks for your feedback 👍🏻

Hi, have used the Glide 2 dlab 750 once in similar conditions and it went pretty good. amazing low end & speed but doesn't turn as well as the Whizz 850. Need to ride it a bit more in those conditions to be sure, defo prefer the whizz 850 in small waves and onshore, and the Glide slab 620 is epic in big & windy

@@lewiss66 compared to which? Most production 85L boards are around 6kg with straps

@@pastyadventures the skybrid 85L real weight is 6.9kg

@@lewiss66 mine is 6.2kg with straps on scales

Yes, I’m interested in those harness lines as well. Seems a nice compromise between the stiff windsurf ones that get in the way and the soft ones made from line that just blow flat against the boom so you can’t hook in. Thanks.

I,am interested too ..what Brand and size are the Harness line ..

The white ones look to be Dakine.

Yep boom is good but might not be best for you? If you are freestyling then prob yes. I suggest testing for yourself 😊

@@pastyadventures Handle or boom is a personal thing. I always like boom better. In a recent Duotone Wing & Foiling Tech Talk video, Ken Winner said most of the top guys prefer boom and therefore the trend of the industry is going toward boom.

@@robtangent4664 as I say for freestyle the boom is needed but not for pure wave or cruising. Wesley Brito is using handles in waves and he’s current World Champ. For bigger guys with longer arms the handles are more comfortable

@@PhilWard-v7o thanks I do have a 3.5 & 4.5 2024 going cheap 😉

Yes whizz 1000 is epic foil turns super good and has better low end than free 1250 😊

I can but depends if you are good at wobbling. Ankles are wet and it’s not easy if choppy and zero wind in wing. If wing can fly it’s no problem, Unit dlab makes it easier 😊

Do you think the 85L will be good now since you rode the 100L ? Thank you

@@ericwoof5124 only if you are planning on 15 knots and above ay my weight

@@lewiss66 depends how light wind you want to go in? 95-70 is big drop in size if you go in light winds. The 5’8 is amazing much better than sky free

I'm 82kg and I went for SkyBrid 5'8 85L to have a neutral buoyancy and I'm really glad I didn't go lower but the wind is mostly light and inconsistent where I sail on the lake so sometimes it dies off completely without a warning

@@danielpugh2752 skybrid is 85 or 70L so depends how light you want to ride in. The 85 is great 👍

@@pastyadventures 85 sounds like the one for me. Excited already, although bound to take a while to save up

@@thierrysalles9365 it’s GoPro 11 with max lens mod on the flymount aero

Great. Do you think the mini GoPro 11 ,with same lens will get same result? This lens is amazing and already on my list....tx

@@thierrysalles9365 never used a mini but I think it’s basically the same as the 11. Not sure if it takes the max lens mod or not ?

Yes already sold it. The 70L skybrid will be perfect for you

@@emanuelslonim9600 yes whizz will be all way forward on the style. Skybrid has longer tracks. I use 60 fuse winging all foils. The 850 is best with the s165 stab but I prefer the 1000 with the p165 stab on flatter water and bump riding as it makes it go faster. I small weak waves and light wind the 1000 is better with the s165 as it gives more pump and lower stall speed. I’m 90 kg and mostly ride waves. The 850 works really well with the s145 as well really loose but I can push turns harder in bigger waves with the s165 and the 850 is fast enough on flat water didn’t find it any better with the p165 it just has higher stall speed

@@wingfoilcoach in waves yes in flat water prob not unless you are a lightweight pro

@@johnnoble1967 yes it’s halfway. Won’t get going quite as early as a longer narrower board but will get going way earlier than the Sky free. And when flying it feels like a short board not like the downwind boards which feel like a long board

Interesting I’m a bit wary of Duotone right now given my Sky free has given way under the deck pad where my knees go but the SLS construction might fix that. Am I also right in thinking you see this as a one board does it all if you stay in that 0 to 25 mph in relatively flat water? Thanks again

I’d say if you can gybe and want it for over 10mph go the 5’8. Either board is going to blow you mind compared to that Takoon 😊

Cheers pal 👌

Depends on foil, water state, wing size & your level. the 70L might be too small for light wind unless bigger foil and wing. the 5'8 85L works great but I won't be using it in big waves and 30 knots ill be on my 50L.

Thinking to wait on a review of the 100ltr. For lighter winds I’m 88kg. This looks an incredible board already though

@@wingfoilcoach if you want to go under 10mph then yes otherwise the 5’8 is good 👍

@@jadearama cheers Jade. Hard to make it short but still get over what I want to say. I think there’s a good balance of stability from the width and feel from the foil as not too thick. Some of the really narrow mid lengths are really thick which I find feels bit weird

Hi The Whizz is a lot looser and way more pump. Also can get the tips out and hit white water no problem. If your main thing is waves for sure swap the Free 1000 for the Whizz 850, actually the Whiz 850 is better in every way than the Free 1000, not as fast as Free 800 but as fast as the 1000. Do it and you will be loving it like me even flat water see how far you can get the foil out on a turn 🥳

Thanks Yes it’s an amazing foil in the right conditions but it’s not the right foil for some conditions 🤙

Yeah Stithians lake is about 40 mins away or if wind direction right Daymar bay 30 mins or Mylor 40 mins

And if I would like to go to the coast, where would you advise to go? Where is there a chance to find other wingers?

@@ferdinandvaneeckhout8544 if you don’t want waves they are the spots. If not wavey then you can wing off most beaches just check with lifeguards. Marazion always good if windy

Waves are not the problem but I’m not used to big waves. I was thinking about a session next thursday at crantock. What do you think?

@@ferdinandvaneeckhout8544 who knows what the wind will be like next Thursday it’s hard to know what it willl be like tomorrow with the crazy weather we are having 🤷‍♂️

Cheers Still prefer surfing barrels but use whatever’s best to ride waves on the day. Wing is best when it’s not good to kite 😊 I use the Ion webbing slider

5’1x20 50L I’m 93kg 🤙

Thanks buddy 👍

This is the carve dlab 850 which is what I use when decent waves

Thanks! 👍

You mean the foil? I’ve not ridden it in flat water but have clocked 27mph flagged out on a wave. I know people who have done 30knts on it

Yeah the carve dlab comes into its own once you have good wave power or lots of power in wing for doing tricks. The 850 is great as one foil. If you want to glide and cruise chop or unbroken swell then the Glide is better, 725 if you only go when windy or 905 for lightwind is great 🤙

Thanks Lee much appreciated!
