Thanks for adding all your Kit in the info. Offset foot position for sure to get the most out of the Foil. Loooking forward to seeing you on your next board!
I don’t have enough experience to give you an accurate answer. I would think the 250 would give you plenty of lift and since it’s a hyper 2 it’s still super quick. But…. I would suggest either reaching out to The Foil Shop in Seal Beach CA and speak to Josh. He pointed me in the right direction. You can also chat with the guys from Unifoil on their site itself. When the site loads it gives you the option to start a conversation with a sales rep on the lower right hand side of the screen. They are very helpful. Hope this helps ✌️
Nah 140 won’t be too small on a prone. I pump all over the place on the 170 with a 6’6 110 litre downwind sup. I just ordered the 140… not because I’ve ever felt overwinged on the 170 but because my cardio and effort is so low on the 170 that i want to see how much speed/turning the 140 has. The 170 is less effort to pump around than my old takuma 1095… which this time last year was considered an incredible pumping wing. 140 is just a number… I wouldn’t pay much attention to it. They’ve clearly done something to the foil section which makes it ride as easy as a bigger foil (but still turn like a 140)

Thanks for the support!
whats the easiest foil by unifoil to pump? 210 or progression 170? What about the 250? would that be good for a heavier rider?

Your progress has been amazingly fast! Also just a note to say that KDW‘s tails are not built by him. He has all his tails built by Tectonics Maui.
Ow good to know. I will have to address that in the next one. Thanks for the heads up and thanks for the support.

I appreciate the confidence on the 140. Also stoked to hear you are enjoying yours so much. Results to follow! ✌️
