Is it really a good board for light wind winging? I though infaltable board were quite stiky and there for the worst option for an easy tale off

The Cruzader is fantastic in light wind It will take off before other normal boards in light winds 👍💪 Sometimes I need to pump the board and wing a little but it's no effort I have left friends behind on a normal board -- he told me after that there was no wind but I took off and flew away - he didnt think it was possible but it works very well 😎👍👌💪

I’ve got the Sirus 3XL 186 and couldn’t seem to make it work. Lifted uncontrollably and then if I could keep it down it would rail over and chuck me off. How do you get it flying in control?

ooooh good question. I had exactly the same problem when i started with it. I move my mast further back so when im on the board, the mast is right below where the rear footstrap front mount is. Ive had to experiment a lot with foot position but find that helped (im probably similar weight to you (after a big lunch 108kg). It does like to take off very easilly if theres a gust of wind and my foot position isnt right it will just go and take off and throw me off lol. So i think just keep moving the mast back until it stabilizes

@@EASTCOASTGONGWINGFOILING-sr6kh Thanks for that. I may bring it back out again as it’s very light here now ( hurricane season brings light winds, go figure lol) Think with my 7m and my new found pumping skills I could do the 6knot wind challenge. Cheers 👍

@@EASTCOASTGONGWINGFOILING-sr6kh I tried the 5XL with a wing in almost nothing. Got it to fly and did some great long runs but pumping the whole time. Wing gives that little stability needed but great fun and practice. Not a chance in hell to turn it lol thanks for the advise
