Thanks for the music! I looked up that DJ and now have a whole new way to enjoy "the three".

Only really the hoverglide/infinity wings

and many of the sabfoil wings
633, 720, 699, 799, 899, 999, 940, 800
and
Ghostwhisper/moses 639

I rode some of the early fanatic flow wings and liked them a lot but not better than 799

I am sure there are many other great wings out there that I have not riden

Nice vid. Still love the Stealth Mode sail as well as all the speed and direction data.

It looked like a 399 stabilizer, how do you like it compared to the other SAB stabilizers.

For freeride my favorite stab is the s450. But this is mostly cause i need to add shims to the other stabs to get the lift i need.

That day i used s399 with one deg shim but Thurs i switched to s425. Cause i was getting a big deal ut if something. The s425 gives more lift than s399 so i had to take off the one deg shim.

Side note i tried s430 on my w699 and did not care for it. Going back to my s450.

Prone foil i use s370, but i don't think i am good enough at prone to know what's better.

After Thurs my opinion of the 425 went up but the ride on 399 with one deg was real nice

Update re stabilizers

Tried my 699 with s450 today and love the ride so much more than s430 or s399
