The foil is very stable and fast. It has a locked in feeling rather than loose and floaty. Not so good in surf or turning tricks. But good for glide, straight line speed and beginners.
(Rider weight 78kg, 12-15 knots)

Nice, concise review. Did you use the recommended stab? And what fuse length please?

I'm loving the Glide 905 in the waves with 90 te mast 60 fuse and Onix 180 tail. I'm 93kg in uk
check it out the other day -

have one day on the Glide 725 wingset. Using w/ 90cm carbon mast (std), 68cm fuselage. Feels really good. Fast, stable, and has fantastic glide. I thought the turns were good too. Has a bit more front foot pressure than the Aero Free 800 & 1000 for me. Will next try with the 60cm fuselage. Had a combo of overhead groundswell at Fort Point, open ocean swell under the Golden Gate Bridge, and flat/choppy water everywhere else. Easy glide and speed through an around the world 360. Stall speed was pretty slow and a lot lower than I was expecting. Take off is relatively easy and non-complicated.

got a 500m run 24.2kt which is faster than I've gone on anything else at a spot that is generally a kt or two slower than some other spots. I have the 925 too but haven't tried it yet and am now dealing w/ an ankle issue.

Will have to test further to see how it pumps by turning and how carvy/tracky it is in smaller, less powerful swell.

Did you get any more impressions from the bigger Glide ? Have you left Sabfoil or did you get a chance to test WO835 ? Thx !!
