went to buy a new fin (finally got a choco weedspeed 30!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!) and came away with a new board!

Well 2nd hand new............F2 SX 96l . I think I have found a very good new board. much more twitchy than Isonic and felt really confortable with lots of back foot pressure.

Spent most of session getting straps and mast placement right but still fairly happy with speeds for a first sail. Used a pointer for a change and weed was ok over the bar but horrible inside

 

Was nice and flat out the back at melville and I had to go before the wind really kicked in. no downwind speed runs tide too low.

RS slalom 7.2   F2 SX 96l

Yeh it makes ya wife so stoked too!!!!!!!!!!

 

I am going to run a few tests and see which board gets me the best speeds.

The SX feels so good but will have to check top end speeds first.

The iso was newly purchased at the end of the last season and while it is fast it feels really boring to ride. not much input required.

 

The loser is up for sale!

Are you sailing today.....????
