QuoteI use mostly the 900 on sup wave and 1000 for dw. I think the 900 has the same lift as the IWA but it is faster and easier on steep take off. I guess it depends on your board and the wave you foil. For bigger board and small mushy wave I would recommend the 1000. If you use a small light board and you are experienced the 900 might be what you want. Both of those are really good especially with the ultrashort fus and 400 wing.Thanks Greg, you know the wave I foil at pretty well, your old home Sano. I have seen a few proners on the 900 and they do pretty well, just didnt know if that was too small for a SUP. My board is not big but not small, 6'6. Just looking for a setup that has more adaptability, glide and take advantage of the newer designs.

Just got the 101 HA front wing & 460 flat stab.For me it is more a dw foil but I tried on small wave to see how it was.Easy gradual lift (like most HA wing), amazing glide, easy to pump back out as it stays up longer and hold it at low speed.Turns ok, I mean you need some space and slow wave but you can do pretty good turns.At 70 kg I don't need it for surfing (except if I want to connect x10 waves) but for bigger guys especially on a sup it might be a good choice.

How would you say it compares with the 1000 and 900 just in terms of push needed to get airborn?

Overall, I suppose. How would you describe the amount lift / ease of takeoff compared to the 900 and 1000?
Nice DW! What wind direction/speed were you working with there?
