Hi, Could anyone who has a Naish Matador 3m, tell me the maximum and minimum windspeed they can use it in ?

I have the 4m, and used it today from approximately 18 knots up to gushes of 30 knots where I was well over powered. hoping to get a 3m but unsure what the 'lower end' might be.

Stats..... 75 kilos, using Naish 85Litre board with HA1240 foil.

Thanks.

20 knots for floater and 25 consistent knots for sinker.
I have the 3m for sale, used it twice, no different than a brand new one, ping me if you want it. We don't have that kinds of wind at my local spot and I prefer sinker board.

Im 90kg use the same board and foil . I was a little over powered in a constant 34knt last weekend, Geraldton WA

I love my 3m Matador wing and I've not tested the top end wind speed that I can use it in but the lower end is surprisingly low for such a little wing.. I'd say 18 knots and I weight 100 kgs.

Any chance of some more feedback on the Matador/LT in general. I'm quite impressed by how solid it looks, so some more general rider feedback would be good. Cheers mike

Very well balanced review of the Matador LT,

Germany with subtitles. I saw a very good Wingfoiler out on a 5m Matador today in waves , he seemed well powered up, and the wing was trailing really well . myself and a few friends were out on Naish S26 5.2, Ensis 5.3, and Ensis 6m. The Matador 5m needed the occasional pump but seemed very powerful.
