You don't need such a big board, go 20l over your weight in L and a large foil. Narrow board will be more efficient.160 will be heavy and draggy, it will float a lot, but won't get on foil any quicker

Agreed. I don't think that's a good call if you are hunting for light wind performance.

A modern mid length would be just fine for that purpose.

+1. A large, wide, and heavy board is not a light wind solution. It will be way more difficult to get it flying than a smaller (-+10l) lighter and narrower board. A 160l, wide, heavy board is a barge. The only reason for one for winging is the first two sessions when learning or if you are over 150kg.

That board is 31" wide. May be a good beginner board for 120kg riders.

Needs to be burned in hell otherwise.
