Not sure if anyone has asked this before? But does anyone know what the new fuselages that the starboard guys are using in the PWA are ? And what the plus and plus plus represent?
im assuming it may mean different mast connection points
or perhaps wing angle adjustments?

They both have the front wing further forward relative to the mast, they also have a shim adjustable rear wing. Other than that I couldn't find any specific details anywhere.

I saw both of them in Tarifa (did I mention I was over there ?) , exactly what CJW said, the plus+ has the front wing extremely at the front and is really powerful, they both come with a set of different width shims.

The Alabau sisters (that I met in Tarifa, spain ) told me the plus+ was a too much of a handful for light to medium weight riders, better suited for big blokes. (they even wanted to sell me theirs, too bad it wouldn't fit in my luggage)
