Best and most succinct explanation of a complete foil line at the show …from design concepts to usage for front wings and stabilizers and how their interaction can change the feel of the ride
Great presentation from Brandon, new wings look great, been watching the protos fly frequently and they look impressive. Not a fan of hard handles but I felt these and they are much more well thought out and comfortable than many.
Looks great! The thing about tension makes me wonder if we will see something like outhaul and downhaul on wings someday to cope with canopy stretch and tuning preferences
I've been using my foil drive for flat water pumping with the G1000, it's more high aspect than the G1007. I have one on order and will report back when I've ridden it. I think the span is limited by the fuse connection.
Very informative, especially the nuances of current design thinking. The hard handles are almost like small booms. Why didn’t the just do what Duotone does. Isn’t the boom what they’re heading toward here?
Slingshot does have a boom wing, the Javelin. I tried one, and didn't like handling it as much as others with two hard handles. I haven't tried the Duotone, though.
Help Brandon Scheid recover from a serious accident.

Excellent interview, slingshot are top of the game for all round foil sports.

Great explanations
They did not discuss the fuselage lengths. I noticed that also in the Naish video.
I think they intend for everyone to use the 710, except windfoilers will use the longer one.
@@dcmackintosh as a kite foiler I like the 653 fuse, 710 is great for winging
Stiffness canopy : about 3 years later than several other brands: Takoon for exemple.
Does the NXT wing even exist?
Whats the number one dock starting wing? the new 1070?

Great great salesman. I didn’t get BS
Brandon is one of the main R&D testers. He really knows his stuff.

Slingshot already have a boom wing it's called the Javelin. They have been out for a year
