Hey all, I'm 6'5' 90 kgs plus 5mm suit and am looking at the Armstrong 5.11, 115L for SUP foiling (I have smaller boards for wing foiling). I'm coming from the Sunova Aviator 6.4, 115L but find the boxes way too far back for my Armstrong mast placement. It was fine for learning, but I want more reactivity now. Any reviews from the 90kg and over crowd? Paddling stability/handling, etc? Thanks in advance!

Hi Zone crew,
Looking for some input on best practices for paddling over a breaking wave on a foil SUP. The odd time it's going to be a situation where it suddenly becomes apparent you're not going to make it over and you need to bail off the side. My last session ended this way and when I surfaced, my foil had ripped out of the board (it was a head high set wave, the boxes may have already been compromised and I was on an 1850 foil). Knowing it's best to always control a board (especially with a foil), I wonder how others handle this situation outside of simply avoiding it completely? My buddy suggested dropping in the water quickly, pointing the nose at the beach and controlling the SUP by the leash webbing as the wave breaks over you. All fine and good if you have the time, but seems pretty tough if you're committed to paddling up and over. I learned a good lesson to really try to avoid having the foil tumble sideways over the falls, but wonder if others have any thoughts?
