I have a old f-one kiteboard from 2005 that is 139cm long and the width is 37cm, nose and tail width is 23cm, having a difficult time learning so think i have to change board😊. Has the standard changed over the years?
Hi!...I'm a 97kg experienced kiter....usually I'm using a monarch 42.5 cm with straps I can hold and jump hi with an Edge 15 untill 25+ knots.... Wich width do you think I could 43...44...to improve in less wind...but still have the agility to do back & front....etc tricks? And also how big i can go if I use boots...? Sorry for this log questions😊 Cheers!! (I like how you explain those technical arguments...!) Ciao😊
Generally speaking, a foil is much more efficient than a board so with the right kites skills it would be a great option. A lower profile foil, like the Cabrinha Double Agent, would be my suggestion. Pair that with a larger single strut kite like the Airush Ultra or Naish Boxer and that will be a good option for riding in lighter winds.

How much money do you need to have a complete set?

Are there circumstances where you would want to move your foot pads toward the heel edge of your board even if it's not a light wind board?
Not really. And most modern boards do not offer heel/toe adjustment like you are describing.
