April

I like how the mast track recess is fairly small, leaving a fairly flat deck so it looks like when the sail mast hits the deck it would not hit the mast track recess ridge.

No, that doesn't happen!
i used this boards over 2300km and nothing happened.
so its not true.

They look epic bro. What sizes you got there and are some for course versus slalom?

I was saying just that, with those Phantom boards the mast should not hit deck like it does on my Goya Bolt with a large concave deck recess that has a ridge running around the recess that the mast hits denting it.

But black bottoms, that would get too hot to touch sitting on the beach in Florida sun! I normally flip board over onto sail/mast when parking kit on the beach, so bottom is up facing the sun.

I'm interested in the speed differential, change in stiffness & feel between the R100 & R95. Do you notice any differences & is it material? Then the difference between the R & the infinite, when it arrives.

The difference in speed between the 95 pwa mast and the 100 Iris R mast is at least 1.5-2 knots. i was on the first test with 7.8 and 550/100/200 in really shabby conditions. there was a lot of chop and the bottom wind was only 10-12 knots. i was surprised that despite the lousy conditions, a top speed of 30.8 knots was possible straight away. and the average of 5x10 seconds was almost 29 knots. the mast is definitely faster. but it is very easy to drive and easy to use. that surprised me very much.

Thanks for the insight; the Infinity (& Beyond!) wing fuse connection looks a lot cleaner & similar to the Neil Pryde slalom foil.

??????
you can buy them in france. Developed by nico goyard. The problem by the original is the thickness of only 2mm. So the bend by use. A friend of my made a copy with 4mm stainless steel laser cut. . So now rock solid. So these one you can buy nowhere.
