Canon C70 and RF 100-500 mm Windsurfing Slow Motion 

We tried the Canon EOS C70 together with the Canon RF 100-500 mm lens to get some smooth windsurfing slow motion shots. I filmed in Slow & Fast mode, shooting at 120 fps which is then automatically played back in 25 fps straight out of camera on the Canon C70, which is very convenient.
Canon specifies the crop factor to 1.53x, but I read something interesting on Reddit, where someone makes a few calculations and takes the sensor size and ratio into consideration, and with that claiming that the real crop factor when filming in 4K UHD or 4K DCI, is in fact 1,37x. I don't really know... One thing is for sure though - it's VERY difficult filming at 500 mm on a Super35 sensor, regardless if it's the equivalent to 685 mm or 765 mm on a fullframe sensor... The smallest movement becomes very BIG movements on video.
I shot this with stabilization mode 2 activated. I tried turning IS off, but that did not work at all, too shaky.
