    What does a V tail like the Armstrong stabilizer do?

      @@bmrbca3658 cant say for sure especially because i haven’t used one! But just looking at photos of it I would say its for carving. I guess by doing that shape they are trying to also minimise the wingspan and taper the tips as much as possible. Would give the manoeuvrability of a smaller wing with added benefits of a larger wing? Maybe thats the idea.
      As I said it’s all a guess just by looking at photos! But to be completely honest it looks like an unnecessary shape to me. At least for achieving the previously mentioned.
      Of course they must know something we dont do, right?

    Excellent video. Riding the v2 939 on waves with pro 350 on head high waves. What size skinny would you recommend? 150lbs. Crazy short.

      Love the setup! I use nearly the same as I use crazyshort, 939 V2 and a skinny 360. I would like to try a smaller skinny on it as well as I think it would work nicer for waves. Maybe the skinny 358/35 (as I am a big guy not sure about going smaller).
      On a different note, if you tend to pump a lot I can also recommend trying the new updated fuselages as they do make a difference in the pump. For small waves that involve more gliding and pumping I switched to a new ultrashort (with the skinnies tail) and it helped a lot. Of course I am talking details as the setup you mentioned is already amazing but I would def recommend switching to a skinny for the ART V2s!
      Keep shredding!

      Went with the 35 and love it. Waaay better than the progressive on wave. Faster and more playful. My carves on the waves are better after 1sesh. Thanks again for the advise. Fish

    I am curious, do you think skinny 365/55 over Progressive 400 will help HPS 1050 & 930 faster ? (I weigh 76 kg). I use 365/55 skinny with ART V2 999, but never even thought of trying it with HPS 🧐🤔

      Hey! yes it should help the foils get faster! Will most likely have less initial lift but otherwise should be faster and looser.
      Especially for the 1050 which is a big foil for your size. Try it out and let us know! :D
