Hello!
Can you dock start / pump with this foil setup? I’m 80kg aprox

Hey are you still on the mint 5.2 as a allround board if you changed why and if you stayed on it why thanks mate

[@lxt1714]

Hi, i still use my mint for medium / high wind days and completed my lowend with cruzader 7.6 and sabfoil 1550/1750 with 83p mast...very happy with this combo...mint is in wave conditions light enough for being reactive enough

@@lxt1714 thanks for the update

Hello, thank you for your videos !
I also have a mint and a fluid XXL classic and I enjoy it. I have a fluid XLT too but I prefere the XXL even when there is wind.
I have just learned how to jibe.
I am planning on buying the same foil in this video (fluid XXLH + stab H 47) but what about very light wind condition ? I live in the north of France near a lake and there is not a lot of wind... I often use my SP 9m2... Do you think the curve XLT is the best for light wind or witch front wing is the best for light wind in your opinion ? I think I will buy the curve XLT as well only for very ligth condition but not sure.

[@roadrunnermakmak]

for very very light winds I'd recommend the CurveXLT (only the RiseXXL would fly earlier, but its deadslow and not really fun at all if you're not a very beginner) - thats what I ride. (my next smaller foil is the fluid XLS for days with not so gusty and a bit higher and more regular winds). I am happy with those two foils (using with Veloce and Fluid pro Stab).

[@lxt1714]

it turns out that for a rider there is one size working in most conditions and size is depending on weight and preferred wing size..in stuttering gusty wind often a larger frontwing is better to pumpglide through lulls...with my weight below 1500cm is a pain

[@lxt1714]

Recently sold my xxl curve because i also own a levithan 1550 now with better glide, curve xlt is best wing for low wind takeoff in the gong lineup, sp9 was to huge for me so i sold it, also have 18m matrixx2 that i prefer in 6kts :)

@@lxt1714 Thank you for your answers. I have bought the curve XLT and it is my choice for very low wind less than 12 kts with the SP 9m². I find the SP 9m² hard to jibe. I really prefer my Duotone Echo 6m² with a boom and with the fluid XXL (1850 cm²) that has a good glide but when there is more than 12 kts.
I would love to try the fluid XXLH, I wonder if it is easier than the fluid XLT (1550 cm² but lower aspect) that I find a little hard to take of. I am about 80 kg.

@@roadrunnermakmak Thanks for the answer.

[@heliboy999fly]

What do you think your minimum wind strength would be for this XXL H ?
Thank you

[@lxt1714]

Hi with my cruzader required wind limit is dramatically lower...with mint 12 kts with cruzader 9 kts

[@axxis001]

Sehr cooles Video. Wo ist denn dieser Spot? Nicht in Kaisermühlen oder?

[@lxt1714]

Kaisermühlen Hauptspot ist nur wenige huntert m weg...der andere ist secret :-)

[@axxis001]

@@lxt1714 haha ok alles klar, danke! :)

[@peterorlt6635]

Wo positionierst Du den Mast mit Deinem Mint ?

[@lxt1714]

hi kommt auf das Foil an, die Mitte ist ein guter ausgangspunkt für hi ar und mittelwind, low ar wings etwas richtung heck vor allem bei mehr Wind- im Endeffekt so das man gut obensteht, die pluglöcher sind ein guter Hinweis ob man von der Volumensaufteilung gut draufsteht...das Fluid H muss man jedenfalls ein paar cm weiter Richtung Brettmitte montieren da es weniger Lift beim anpumpen erzeugt als zb fluid und curve..

[@peterorlt6635]

​@@lxt1714 danke .... aber ich mein ganz konkret bei welcher nummer hast du dein Fluid xxl h positioniert .... hab den gleichen Front Wing und gleiches Mint Brett ... bin aber noch am tüffteln

[@0610lajos]

Du brauchst a 360 Grad Kamera Alex

[@lxt1714]

No with 110kg not possible, with 80kg you need to run fast and it could work but profile is thin, would go for 3xl
