I got my bolts, and have set it up in te "C" position.

Is this too far back?
The manual sats something about reversing the fuse 180 degrees, which confuses me.

I have no idea how I ended up with 3 images.
It's the same photo

Can I use a parawing on a regular board w/out foil? Upwinds easy? Wind range ? Typical winds here :are light: +- 12-13 knts. Weight : 190 lbs. Board : inflatable . Advantages/Disadvantages? From previous experience with a wing I had to struggle getting back on the board after falling. It is super easy with a regular rig and sail, because they counterbalance the board on the lee side when leaning on the wind rail, but with a wing it is hard, be cause the board tips over on the wind side.

Thanks for the input

Hi

Im a Swedish windfoiler, I?ve been casually brwosing this forum for some time - I think it?s the most active community IN THE WORLD for windfoiling! kind of sad, but also cool!

anyways, I thought I would share a funny app I built for analyzing windfoil settings - a trim calculator, analyzing pitch moment arms to suggest "ideal" positions for vertical force balance. But I can?t, according to policy here, so instead I?ll post my take on the future of windfoiling

Windfoiling is the future of windsurfing, no doubt. the bottom line is that windsurfing is really hard and it?s not really fun if conditions are less then steady and strong. especially steady. Most surfers slog on too small boards, and everyone is not into big boards and slalom. in fact most dream of fsw + 4.2 sessions, which they only get a taste of
Good winds!

The crew from Virginia Beach have arrived, I think they are not aware of Seabreeze so thought I would share.

My son gave me this link. He built his own, but said this one pretty identical ready to go off the shelf.. he did say there is more skill in flying a "true " fpv drone, whatever that means..

No, but he is pretty techy. But pretty sure he just buys the pieces and assembles them. Seems a lot of it is getting it tuned correctly with software flight controller/telemetry etc. I suspect it's all pretty straightforward. I'll ping him for kit details and see if he has some recommendations.

It's only for Chinese made drones ie DJI. Drones by US companies are exempt.... not that there really are any US made drones.

WsurfAustin said..




Or you could build one from parts like my son did.
He's not having any trouble in 43 knot wind gusts.
I think it's a 5" drone.

Nice video what drone did you film that with asking because only certain drones are now available in the US for security reasons?

Does anyone else find the Armstrong integrated mast has a lot noisier motor sound and a tapping type vibration under your feet when under power load.
