Foil SUP / Re: Question about Foil Assembly

So looks like the fuselage doesn't sit properly on the mast. It's out by 32mm tip to tip on the front wing. Tried shimming but that's a PITA and doesn't seem to do enough and only closes the difference a bit

Foil SUP / Question about Foil Assembly
« on: May 15, 2020, 05:44:06 AM »
So I sell Takuma Foils but there is no info on the assembly of the foil. I understand where everything goes but is there a specific torque these bolts should be set at? Also do the foil wings sit perfectly square to the mast or is it normal to have them offset a bit.

Thanks in advance from Nova Scotia!

SUPBoarder has free vids and paywall vids. Great tips. Blue Zone SUP and Nosara Paddlesurf on Youtube are also good.

Great rack tho. Surfboards, 14' SUP all held strong. Also had full sheets of plywood on it!

Oh man, 5:10 makes me ashamed.  That guy is violating one of the cardinal rules:  "If you are just learning to SUP surf, stay away from the lineup"

This. It hurts to watch. He didn't even try to get over the wave out of the way...

They're both great boards. If you can demo them that's great. The Sunova boards have lower volume per size than the Infinity. The Balsa Construction makes the Sunova a little lighter and pretty durable.

Hard to say...

Some reviews have been less than kind on those boards. Check Seabreeze ...

SUP General / Re: Decent SUP travel Bag
« on: November 12, 2018, 01:09:06 PM »
8-10mm might be ought on that size. Most seem to be in the 5-7mm range. Try getting a FCS Flight Bag but it will need to be oversized to accommodate the width and thickness.

Gear Talk / Re: What length is your surf paddle?
« on: November 05, 2018, 12:49:47 PM »
76" tall, 245 pounds. BP Surge 82 surf paddle at 72". I find the paddle cadence too slow with longer paddles. Plus switching hands I don't get the blade caught up.

Kneel down or stand up when getting out to the surf is the main objective?

Here’s a quote from Greg Noll on whether or not he would tow into large surf if it was available in his time; “I don’t care if I was shot out of an elephant’s ass as long as it got me into big waves.”

Go surfing.

End of story

This!

from the IG post i borrowed the pic from

"refined nose entry and staged rocker added increased flat water glide and over all versatility. The worlds fastest All-Around Race Design just got more deadly in the flats when you need it."
