Interesting discussion and thanks for the input ... I guess I'm wondering as much about the wing choices as the board choices.
Differences between the brands - power and ease of use. Light weight and smooth power trading gust handling / upwind ability vs upwind and rigid. For instance: how does the F-one compare to the Naish S25 or the Wasp or the Slingwing in handling / power / upwind. I have only played with my 4.2 Slingwing but I am looking for a 6.0 and too many choices / no options around here to try before hitting the buy button.
Maybe this should be in a different thread? I can restate in the nub question threat or admin could move.
Tnx, Mac
