I have it down to the North Nova light wind 8m or the Cabrinha Vison 8m for my first wing. I'm 225lbs and not nearly as nimble as I used to be so as similar as they seem to be I'd like to choose the one that will help my progression the most. Any chance you can point me in the right direction ? Any help would be appreciated.
I would do nova light wind and if you can spend up get the loft pro since it is lighter and stiffer. You will tax this wing and the vision won’t load up as well and will blow out sooner. Both are good and will get you on foil. I really like the balance and bars of the north light wind wings. Really balanced.
So there will be no North Nova Light Wind wing in 2024? They are stopping them this year? If the Loft Pro replaces the Nova Light Wind why did they drop the 6m size? Do you know what the weight differences are between the Nova and the Loft?
Hi, how does the North Loft Pro in 8m compare to the Cabrinha 8m Vision? Which one get you faster on the foil with less Wind ( heavy rider 110KG)? Thanks :)
10 or 12 knots/mph?
awesome review! this looks like a winner and i'm really curious how it compares with the new ventis
Wind was 5-12mph.
Looks good...I've put a Gofoil tip through the N-weave while winging. It can be done:)
Yikes! They make those to foil tips sharp.
What size downwind board? And what is the foil setup? Thanks

Yeah looks like they dropped the light wind nova as well as the 6m from this range.
@@REALmattnuzzo Thanks. For average weight riders with good pumping technique and a new LW board a 6m Loft Pro might have been magic.
What foil were you on there?

Foil setup please… thanks

Interested in what camera you use on the water that gives you a decent capture of voice against the wind noise?
GoPro 11

We have found the Loft Pro 8m to have a very light and lively feel with plenty of grunt. I would go that direction.
Tried against a 6.8 mode pro?
We just got those in so will do some more testing. From what I have heard and seen, the loft pro will have more power per size.
