I ride the nomad 830 (wing, FoilDrive in waves)and would like to add Atlas for DW using FoilDrive.
74kg,80kg with FoilDrive

very experienced prone/wing. first time DW

good pumping technique and endurance,but FoilDrive is heavy so ruins pumping

conditions for dw typically: 10 to 16 knots, small bumps from thermal wind, Mediterranean sea,no ground swell usually

which Atlas size for front and back wing?

Atlas 1130 , 170 or 205 tail should work well!

I was out yesterday in 10-12 knots with a DW board, Atlas 960/170, short fuse with an Anchorman leash/chute doing wing drops and pumping around. Even the 960 works pretty well in small wind swell.

sorry are you using the FD for DW? 960 has a pretty bloody good low end.
