I am using the 800cm front foil and 225cm rear foil with 95 mast and 115cm fuselage of the Starboard team kit. |

From video, looks like sail shape is way off, for racing + foil. you could do a lot better with foil race sail or at least slalom.
I just changed from 4 cam sail to 3 same brand(Avanti), and ride is much better and more balanced. Foils are very sensitive to sail shape, in upwind/downwind specially. |

Yeah I would agree a race sail would be better, but as I'm just new to foiling I wanted to keep things simple and work on my technique first. Also rigging is a lot quicker so makes getting out for a quick evening session more likely.
That said I am hoping to try out my race sails in the coming week or so, either the 7.8m or 8.4m and see how it all goes. |
