  • In this video I test the Slingshot Quantum 100 and the Axis 1150 to see which hydrofoil setup is better for dock starting.

    Well done, foil fanatic! Interesting comparison and indomitable spirit! I watched both parts :)

    I watched both videos and I am new to the sport but I have the Fpump and the documentation shows the rear stabilizer should be on the same side as the set up for the axis. Why do you use it like this? The manual even states to use as pump use position b so I am really confused.

      Do you have the rear 48 or rear 42? If I were to use position B, the lift is too high to run off the dock without stalling. It could be achieved being pulled though.

      @@FoilFanatic42I have the 42, I was thinking that maybe that's why it was stalling.

      @@aaronross5359 So the 42 does face the other direction, which is why it looks wrong compared to my setup. Are you running off a dock?

      Ok no problem I'm just trying to understand and not fall into traps. I just couldn't find a slingshot set up with both wingtips pointing down

    Thanks for the comparison…before you got on Axis PnG 1150, did you learn on larger front wing until you were comfortable then you started on 1150? Reason I ask.. I started Dock on Naish 1800 until I got to 1st & 2nd glide then I saw the TH-cam about 1150 and someone says when you switch to Hi AR foil , you will relearn again. So I decided to get PnG 1150, been a moth now I still didn’t get to glide, so thinking of go back to bigger wing like used Axis 1020 or BSC 1120 (2000 cm2) to get comfortable again..what do you suggest? Thanks..

      I learned on a smaller wing, the quantum 100. I took a month to learn how to pump, although I could only practice on weekends at the lake. I found the axis 1150 to be much easier than the quantum 100 and I was able to progress much quicker. Do you have any videos? I might be able to offer some advice, although I'm no expert.
