Thank you for letting thses riders demo your gear and their feedback! I have enjoyed limited time on the new 600 wahoo, 170 large back wing, and found i need the thickest, 1.5 depower shim, to allow the mast base slide back a bit from the front, with 8.5 and 7.3 GA vapor air sails. I'm 75 kg. The new wahoo much more responsive to my weight transfers than the gorge 800 and 900 series, which those, i needed 3.0 mm depower shims with the 190 rear. With the CA 660, and 540, and 190 rear I also needed 1.5 depower and still often had trouble with suprise lift at speed. The new wahoo, with its much better lift has a more predictable and smoother power that I can control much easier with weight transfers. I'm anticipating the new Tabou 86, with slightly more forward placed front foot straps will allow the mast base to side back another cm for a more upright sail. Thanks for the great content.
That’s great feedback, thanks for sharing Tim! We have an F4 WhatsApp group and a long SeaBreeze forum on how to go faster (with any foil). www.seabreeze.com.au/forums/Windsurfing/Foiling/F4Foils-Tuning-Tips-Towards-30-knots-
Exellent review, especially when the IQ guys give their opinions, to get a more realistic picture. 👍💪
