One of those situations when you finish work and have short amount of time to get rigged up and on the water, so decided to test the PTM899 in some lighter winds than I normally would use this foil for!
For another foiling videos here are the links:
• Which foil? Slingshot ...
• Slingshot Slingwing V4...
• Slingshot Phantasm PTM...
For the PTM899 pair it with the new ps360 or ps340 for full carving and glide performance.
My wing foil set up is:
82cm phantasm mast
710mm fuse
rider specs:
Winging since July 2019
Weight: 188 lbs (85kg)
Wings used: Slingshot V3 HH
Boards: Wingcraft V2 80L

That looked like a very nicely balanced combo. You gotta love the bonus session .
Yes it is. Always good to get out for a session no matter how long you get 😊
Dean, great to see how that performs. I'm not sure if Iunderstood correct: you launched = got up on the foil flying, in 7-9 mph / 6-8 knots? I have also the same combination 899 v360 and thinking all time ifI need a low wind front winh or not like the g1007. You have both ones. How big is the low end difference out of your experience? The 899 is more fun and has a much more better glide out of my experience. But I had the g1007 only tested for 10 mind from a friend.
Low end of 899 is better more back?
Hi Michael. The wind on the inside was super light 7-9 mph, I could not get the foil up in that wind. Further out the wind had very short gusts around 12-14 mph and average of 10-14 mph. Yes I have the G1007 which I use more for foil drive (like efoil). If the wind is averaging 5-9 mph I use foil drive and g1007. If the wind is 10-14 I wing using G900. If the wind is 14+ I wing using PTM899. Hope this makes sense?
@@peaplecreative Thanks for the great reviews on the 899! In lighter winds with the G900 or G1007 do you still use the v360? or switch to the 400?
@@markella.m I just wanted to ask about that. Please reply.
@@markella.m In really light winds for my weight (189lbs) I use the G900 and PS400 in winds 8-14mph, as soon as the wind is 13+ I am on the PTM899 and PS360. I use the G1007 for only foil drive these days. Hope this helps
@@peaplecreative what does it mean "I use the G1007 for only foil drive"
