A review of the AK Durable Supply Co foil range as of June 2022. What they are like to ride, model styles, rear wing adjustability, and an overview of the whole range. Full details - www.akdurables... www.ktwo.surf/...
Ha ha, that made me laugh a lot, thanks. It was a stumpy thing when we moved, now I think it's winning the war with the hedge trimmer if I'm honest.. can't beat a good hedge! lol
The plasma 1000 will work well with the 260 and 300 moustache, you have to be accurate in trimming to get it perfectly balanced for your given cruising speed. I do like the down arc stabs though - there is quite a bit of efficiency difference between the two if you plan to flag out and are chasing glide... Plus the difference in riding stability is very marginal (to me anyway).
Sure - this vid goes into mast lengths more; ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-ZIFzXIU5i9o.html but sufficed to say - big masts stop you breaching as they bury the foil low - better for chop and high speed power moves where you bring the wings close to the surface. But they don't recover when you do breach and you need deeper water to use them...
Hi. I windsurf all my life in Tarifa. I would love to know what size of foil and volume litres I should choose as a beginner expecting to improve winging up to 16knts but not less. Using 4'5 wing size ok? Many thanks for your info.
That's a tricky one, for sure you need some volume and foil size big enough to make things easy - 15kts 4.5/5, 20kts 4m. You will eventually be on a small board (60lts) with a small hydrofoil and wings 2.5-4m, but to get there you need to make life easier for yourself to make sure your learning curve is steep enough to enjoy the sport.
