Thanks. What is the philosophy behind the disparity between 150 (JP2019) litre, 155 litre (RRDHFirePro) and 175 (Fanatic) or 177 (Starboard) litre race foiling boards all at 91 cm width. I presume there is no maximum volume board rule. Why is Fanatic doing the 175 litre ? Do they have a 150 litre as well ?

The Fanatic team have tried all different prototypes over the last 1.5 years and have settled on this size, they feel that with more volume they get going earlier after tacking. 91 is the rule, no rule for volume.

Jordy is still using protos because the Duotone Foil sail has not been finalised as yet, if you look at all the other photos from this regatta he is using 2018 North Warps, he is also using an old proto foil board.
William is using a Phantom sail because the Phantom guys asked him to test it......he will be back on the Duotone......as soon as the Foil sail is out, he is also riding a Fanatic Falcon Formula board.
