I dont use empirical measure. I have a start point with balancing the foil setup with the fulcrum being the mid point of the front foil and can feel, while lifting, the weight distribution. Going riding is where it all gets worked out.

Hi again Olly. Quick question. I went with the 75fuse. I know you are very knowledgeable into mast placement with shims etc. all good My question. 75 vs 60 fuse. Ha780 speed 180. No shims. What’s the mast position adjustment going from 60 to 75???
@ollybrunton1961 4 ай бұрын
I think of Fuselage length as being resonant with stance width. The Fuselage length is the wavelength of the "Pitch" experience. If youre a tall guy then longer fuselage, note how they are similar to the width of a snowboard stance. Your control of the "Up and down" movements of the foil are best done with a comfortable stance width of your legs. Thats the datum idea, the start, you can also use longer if youre going faster, or use shorter if in shallow areas for quick climbing and error corrections. If youre under 6 foot in height, go 65cm, if youre over 6'4" in height go 75cm. If youre a novice, go 75cm, if youre foiling already, go 65cm. Choose for your size, ability and prevailing local conditions.

@@ollybrunton1961 roger all that. Well I’ve tested myself re mast placement, and found that I was able to move the mast significantly backwards. So going from 60 to a 75fuse, there was the exact same front foot pressure after the mast put way back. Really interesting 🤨

Thanks for posting this review Olly. I'm seriously considering the 8'2 for ocean downwinding here in NSW, Auatralia. I've spent a year downwinding a 110L 8'2 Barracuda. I'm also comfortable on a 102L 7'10, 19 wide Barracuda. 75kg intermediate downwinder with a 9km ocean ace under my belt. From that info do you think i could manage the 8'2 at 16 3/4 wide? Its the width and drop in volume that have me worried... Thanks in advance if you have the time to answer 👍
@OllyBrunton 6 ай бұрын
To be safe, as downwinding is offshore and energetic resources are part of safe landing, I suggest taking a similar volume to what you are used to, same or a bit more. If reducing volume you will reduce your range as youll probably spend more energy on restarts. Narrowness is ok if the length is there too, but volume cannot be replaced by a different shape. Hope this helps

First few clips, 0-12 knots. Had to wait for a good gust and work pretty hard to get on foil. My prone experience pumping helps a lot, once I get the nose off water I pretty much can pump my way onto foil and use the wing to also generate speed following. From there, try not to goof it and stay on foil 😆

Thanks Bud. No when the surf is cranking I always take the prone board out, managing the board in big surf here can be hectic, so much power even when small. I have used in head high surf on the prone board during high tide for extended pump sessions, Its fast enough..I'll use the dart 140 to reduce drag, and also shim 1.5 degree for a 0 degree offset for the fastest setup, but yaw stability is reduced making for a loose setup when going fast.

Hey Olly - I'm keen to get on the new HA train. Currently riding an MA1000, but pumping on it sucks. I can connect 2-3 on it at best, but it turns super nicely on the face. I'm 88kgs. Do you reckon the 780 or 880 is the go?
@OllyBrunton 8 ай бұрын
Heya man, Id say the HA880 if youre wanting to connect more than 3 waves, The MA foils turn really nice, New HA not quite the same, but still great turners..keep in mind the New HA foils are designed for the connect style sessions where pump glide and turn all have a equal play in the design. The HA780 might just extend your wave count 1-2 waves but youll have MA1000 like turns. HA880 will bump up wave count but you wont lose that much turn that you would prone the MA1000 again.

@chrispewkreme 9 ай бұрын
I’ve got the original 72cm and the new 795 performance mast. While just messing with it, it’s slightly stiffer but nothing crazy. Pumping it doesn’t feel all that much stiffer. Where the true stiffness seems to come into play is turns. The original mast almost has some flex and lag where the board exits the wave and the wing seems to still be on the wave. The performance mast seems to feel like it’s following you closer. The biggest change for me is the foil section that pumps easier and has a little more speed. You can sink this mast and recover easier than the original. Worth the extra cost? I don’t think so. But if you’re pushing the limits and need to upgrade, sure. Or if you have the money and buying a new setup, sure. But would most people need this mast, absolutely not, in my opinion

@OllyBrunton 8 ай бұрын
Heya Brad, The older Stabs have been designed around the older foils. They still work, but with the new profile designs the offset between foil and stabilisers has changed. The Speed 180 and Dart 140 are excellent stabilisers for the New HA foils. I stopped using the HS232/212 and the HA195 when the MA foils came out, I personally found the difference in tech a bit off and had to negative shim the tails to balance out the drag of the newer profile designs. Can of worms. Best bet is to match a stabiliser with foil, they have been designed with each other, youll get the best ride.

I have had lots of time on the HA880, I have been downwind sup foiling with it and enjoying small prone days on it. 5-6 minute waves are a norm for me with the HA880 paired with the Speed180 and one red shim. Im 78kg and would call the HA880 my SUP foil for all Sup styles. It does for prone what the HA1125 did, extended connect sessions with knee to head high waves. If you throw the Dart 140 on to stabilise the turn improves and the small stuff can be dynamic like the HA680. I really think the Dart 140 and Speed 180 tails should accompany these new HA foils, you get 2 different distinct styles out of each HA foil.
