Been using the KA race since 2026. Usually it takes some session to get the sail stretched and get the rotation easier. I'm surprised a 5,7 has this kind of issue as it is usually rigged when the breeze is ON.
Apart the "extra" boom lenght trick you should also check how much the bottom and top cams push on the mast.
It might be needed to shorten the cam lenght (from the back). This way you're going to get less pressure.
Please also check the batten tips. In my experience the main KA issue comes just from there. Batten tips tend to fail. If so the don't input the right way and rotation sucks

Personally, I'm in my sporting "middle age." With over 35 (uninterrupted) years of fin-riding, windfoiling has given me new and exciting stimuli. At a certain point, since I don't have the opportunity to do more than 50-60 sessions a year, and in order to improve and master my technique, I had to relegate fast-fin windsurfing to special days.
As for me, I believe that wingfoiling (and its derivatives) is the "ultimate weapon" for countless reasons. If I were 20 or 30 years younger, I wouldn't have had any doubts...
...but after having invested so much energy in "fast" windfoiling and imagining that I'll have to spend at least another three years to gain even a modicum of enjoyment, I prefer to continue "being different."
