Great info Robert and Daniel. 

Will you post a video of how to "shave" the 1250?

Thank You

Hey Phil

What size KT board are you on? Looks like you're dialed in.

When I first saw the specs on this foil, I dismissed it a being too small for winging but over time, with better low end wing dings and more experience with smaller foils, I decided to give it a go.  All I can say is WOW.  The hype is accurate.  My preferred set up is with 60 cm A+ fuse, 232 tail (no shim), 85 cm mast all the way forward.

The biggest downside is the higher speed needed for lift off.  I am guessing I need a wing size bigger compared to the Armstrong 1250 or Axis 910.  That will probably get better with more time and refinement of technique. (keep board flat until speed is built up). 

The upside is that the acceleration, glide and pump are in a completely different league compared to anything I have experienced (Lift HA, Axis HA, LP, Delta).  It just goes and goes.  A couple of light, quick pumps and it shoots forward to that next swell.  It is the ultimate Gorge foil.  And I can carve it.  It took a while to figure out the technique but when I get it right, it just locks in and carves a wave face like it is on tracks.  This is the first high aspect foil I have been able to do this with. 

Attached (I hope) is an image of my geeky self at The Wall (East Gorge) on a 30 mph day with my Fone 2.8
