So nice. There were a few places in that video where you cranked it over to go down a swell face and I was sure you were going to breach. I ride the Fanatic/Duotone foils too so a few questions please! How do you like the Glide 905 and are you using the recommended stab? Shim? I saw the Duotone 90 cm fuse. Is it the same as the Fanatic 90? Looks pulled back slightly. Lastly, which mast?
My daily driver is the Free 1250 and I'm 82 kgs. Starting to think that's too much on the bigger days.

I always love your vids Dan! This one is no different!
I totally get why folks want to down wind on Sup foil boards. It looks like a ton of fun. But for me what we are doing is so similar with one huge advantage. We can sail back to the launch site! Thanks for highlighting the glide!

Epicness did you intentionally edit out all the wingers? Just you and one sup for those conditions...

Luckily this spot is still very quiet. There are usually only SUPers out there. Pretty sweet to have the spot to yourself and ride whatever swell you like.

I only edited out my below average foiling - No wingers when I was there which was a bit of a shame - so many ramps go unridden.

That was only my second ride on the 905/180 no shim. I believe the 90 Fuse is updated? Just using the standard 82 Alloy mast.
My Naish is broken right now so had to beg borrow & steal to get on the water - we've just had 10 days straight of great wind.
Not too different in performance so far, but still building trust in the new gear.

Epic bumps - we get similar here in the river if it's blowing over 25 knots against the tide.
Nice vid

That looks like a blast. I gotta wait for motor boat season to get any swell .
