So which mast base should I not buy?

I’m 100 % with your guest speaker . I am 59 year old windsurfer, started in the 80s , the beginning. I have one wide board , like the dark horse ( a starboard free formula, 155 litre ) that will take a 6.0 up to a 9.5 . when wind picks up , a few small boards. Tried foiling , it’s ok , but our spot is shallow unless you go way out, lots of shallow spots.

Windsurfing period is dead been dead since the birth of kite surfing now it’s even worse for wind surfing winging has now completely buried windsurfing I hear old windsurfers using there mast has flag post

Yeah, not bad but nothing new, a standard triple roller hook does the same job and you can even hook it faster:), however it doesn’t work rigging severne & gaastra..

Best adjustable outhaul? Maybe a video showing or commenting on the various ones.

Pretty expensive for the convenience

The idea is great, but i have GA sails.. their race sails have an integrated system where you just put the loops on..

60 Euro? Made of gold?

The price is bloody nuts!

main advantage is the rope at the clew cant dislodge itself. it happend to me several times while laying in the water. really terrible during wintersessions with gloves. Keep on the good work guys 👍

Great job by Ludovic Jossin! Have them also already two years now. Can't imagine without it anymore. :)

Good vid but camera work can be improved: show preferably what he is doing not just his face!

Patrick and AirInside Boards make sense. Not necessarily for the Wind Shops whose aim is to sell MORE..... I still have speedboards made to measure 25 years later (AirInside) that are light stiff and fast as anything else out there. Same with Old AHD Formula NT98 and AirInside slalom boards. Not very many of them around though. If these boards get damaged, they are easily repairable once they dry out ! Unlike foam inside, they do not take on water.

Great video, thank you both! Question: Why you don't use the 175 Backwing instead of 195 for bigger FW, like the 650/750? The 175 is never a topic in BW discussions - why? For whom and which use is it compared to 195?

Supernice video as usual!! Still 2 questions.. 1: Why does Michele use the back footstraps like that? I have seen more pros that do that. 2: still no video on the custom ff black speedfoil board.. is it for sale??

Arnon is genius

Where can you buy this detachable outhaul pulley? At Mario's shop?

Nice video! Love it!

Would buy an aeon if i d had the budget 😢

Nice video, but the interviewer is talking to much about what he does himeself. Seems like he is eager to lift himself and take up space with nonsense.

The term for the different wing area methods are 'flat' or 'projected' in paragliding, so I guess the same terminology should apply.

Hoffe die Loopchallange kommt wirklich. Arnon hat sehr schnell deinen wunden Punkt gefunden, Du solltest mit Ihm daran arbeiten! Wird dir im jeden Lebensbereich weiter helfen, sich über seine eigene Komfortzone zu steigern.

I love the podcast format! Keep it going. Very interesting!

Another great video. Great relaxing vibe. Nice to hear some tips from the pro.

Hi I really like your video I m looking for the settings in detail of the Neil pryde foil EVO sails downhaul because on pwa slalom video i see the top of the sails flapping and at the same time the sails looks like a ballon from the 4 to the last batten I don’t succeed to have such a setting A video would be great I m also using the Z foil and the speed really change with the sail settings and the rake and also the stab schrimbing I would like to get more input from the pro. Also taking into consideration we are very few to practice it s difficult to correct our error when we stay stuck at 30 knots and willing to go above. Thanks 🙏

the fusealge of the foil is it titanium or aluminium??

I think it is not really possible to compare the Patrik wing sizes to the Loke r F4 because they belong to different generations. Loke 2022 (the one used by Michele to win the German Cup -if i'm right-) are "thick" wings but still pretty H/A vs the new current ones and they can also be downsized a bit (meaning it's possible to use the 590 when you now use the Patrik 550) for given wind (I remember his video in which he was surprised to use the 400/6,9 combi to spritz the SV guy...). Only 2 years ago (I think), stuff was not as efficient as it is now and people had not yet figured it out. Off course new foils (coming from all those experiences) are better built, better optimized, and so on...

Can you talk Michelle into creating a video for setting up and tuning a foil board for speed? … what does he set first - foot straps ? then mast base ? What does he look for on the water to tell him what to adjust - even pressure between front and back foot or more front foot pressure? etc. also any tips on sail position (for and aft and to wind ward)for best speeds. Also Harness line length and body position - how much weight on hands on the boom etc Any and all ideas and theory welcome!

What mast rake angle does Michelle use with his current set up and what shim achieves this?

Yes please, i would love to order the safety hook! It is difficult to get it from the original creator…..

801% of windsurfers sail with light winds. Kill the sport AGAIN by not producing them.

Thank you guys! The boom thing is a very interesting one. I'm very interested in figuring if in Patrik boom range there's a large tail end width difference between the 200 and the 210 models. and why Michele's choice is the 200. Also, it would be cool some explaination about the best choice in relation to the conditions/foiler weight. Is it possible/correct to use the very large tail end (210 one) with the 8,5 if you're just avg 80 kg? thx

Very,very,very nice...❤

Finally some decent info on the Rabbit - although too late for me as I already got one 95L Rabbit from you guys :-) I was recently able to try it for the first time in as low as 13 knots and had a lot of fun with a 6.3 sail on it! Got a gust, pumped a tiny little bit and off I went :-) I worried that compared to the 115L I'm used to the 95L would be a challenge for me, but it felt very stable and controllable - calm, as Arnon put it. Can't wait for the next session! How about uploading an action clip where Arnon has fun on this board? All the best for you guys, you help this sport grow!

Love the board. Any distribution in France? Would love to try it

Nice video, and like on the website no bullshit like some other brands. Some of the claims they make are ridiculous. I've got an AV board, made at the same factory, and the paint doesnt chip as much as others if you are a bit careless with it. I think the video could be improved by looking at the bottom shape in detail, using a straight edge, like Surf Magazine do. The amount of tail rocker, length of planing flat are crucial in a board like this. I find than 2-3mm tail rocker, and a planing flat between the front and rear straps, in their rear most plugs, the best for me. I've had boards with more tail rocker and only about 25cm of planing flat are just too slow.

Surprisingly interesting to listen to you guys go through the list. Thanks.

Looking forward to giving this board a go at the Frans Paradise in March. I also live within a days drive to The Gorge in Oregon. Bump and jump is ideal for that location😎.

im looking for a big board instead of foil ,anyone got one? ff looks so good!

Do the freeride as well please

Maybe someday😊

Great video. The plankton smankton comment killed me😂😂😂😂.. But now I have to dust off my iq set and start going to those training camps and races as well. Hope wifey understands

Nice job guys!

Nice talk. After the word foiling i skipped 80%. I look forward to the Fin or slalom-x talk 😄. Connect more to the world of the amateur windsurfer (ala customer).

This podcast is amazing. 1. It was really entertaining to watch 2. Oh boy, the knowledge about gear and how to tune it. It s amazing to listen to Arnon sharing his knowledge and explaining technical stuff like twist of the sail. I am ashamed now that I didn't reach out to him at King of the bay event. It s a pitty, that this video comes on the windlounge chanel, cause less peaple will see it. I would love to see another video with Arnon explaining technical shinanigans with sail tuning like batten tuning, playing with masts, adding/removing camber spacers etc. "You just need to not be a pussy and have balls" 😂 love it

Mario - if you are still with Arnon, can you interview him about the situation in the PWA management, Rich Page leaving and all the strange circumstances behind it?

Gold 😂

Love it! More podcasts with Arnon please! 😀🤙 And also looking forward to front loop video!!

I Love you, guys🎉🎉...very nice time with your Interview

Looking forward to the forward loop video Mario
