Got yet to hear a brand that won't break jumping with wings esp with heavyweights.
I suspect Gofoil is among the less likely to break first.

Added an RS1000 to the quiver, as the step down from 1150. First session was pretty wow. More control in drops and turns, meant more confidence, less hesitancy, and able to push it harder. My pump game isn't great, but made a few 2 for 1s, felt like it pumps well (again, I can be more aggressive due to feeling more control). Only negative was on the small ones that required pumping in the flat section to make the inside reform, the lessened lift was noticable...lost a few. The 1000 will be the weapon for bigger waves with more juice, and higher wind days -- less than that, the 1150 will be the tool. Good add!

I took the RS1000 out for a lawn mowing river session on the kite. It goes great. Haven't flown a kite in a while and managed a solid one hour session blasting around in light winds on a 7m. Very Easy foil for kiting based on my initial ride, pitch stable, easy to start and fast enough without being crazy to control. I think the shorter tail would loosen it up more.

Okay okay guys. It's out the RS850 and 1075 are being demoed by the team at the annual ride event here in Maui. Iv managed to snag Alex's 1075 and he's not getting it back. It's faster than my 1150 and turns like a GT1050 pumps amazing. On the pump out I'm doing 3km/h faster. This is with the 14.5" FTS

I Don't have much footage riding it yet. But I'm mind blown.
the weight of the wing is a little more than the RS but still lighter than competing brands. The reason is due to how thin it is we've bulked up the layup to prevent by cracking. This is the reason it's taken time as Alex has been R&D this thing to bring out once again the best **** you can ride that won't fail.
Australia/ NZ guys get your order in!

Not much surf today here on Maui, however the wind is already blowing. You guys should have some good conditions for wingding and downwinding. I'll be demoing the 850 next week. Can't wait!

Would be great if someone could post up a pic and some specs of the 850. Mine should be here in two weeks supposedly but I'd sure like to know what I ordered

I know the gang is on the north shore but you all missed some epic conditions on the south side today. Kihei was cranking all the way. RS1150 was flying! Couldn't help wonder how the 850 would have performed.

After talking to Jeremy Riggs tonight it sounds like we should have joined you! We'll be over there tomorrow for the run. I did Maliko to harbor again. Was challenging as the wind had north in it.

Didn't see any new faces in Kihei Sunday. It was fun but not as good as Saturday. Saw Jeremy taking someone in his OC-2 and a few of the regulars but that's about it. Wind is predicted to be light the rest of the week. Cheers

Looks more like a thinned out GTS1250 than an RS. Interesting.

Not unless they come out with some nose and tail extensions for the fuse. I mean, who wants to deal with that pesky pitch control issue, that requires actual skill

The new wings are loaded with carbon. They are a little heavier than the 1000 1150 etc but feel bomb proof
