AFS Enduro 900 - First Look Review

[@LUCKYKRW]

This video is exactly what I was looking for with regards to Progression vs Enduro. I was on Armstrong moved to UNI and am considering AFS Enduro with a Cedrus mast so I can mix and match. Plz keep the reviews/feedback coming.🤙

[@TheFoilKook]

Awesome!! Let me know if there are any other foils you want reviewed :) We are just kicking things off here at The Foil Kook and look forward to sharing more content soon!

[@LUCKYKRW]

@@TheFoilKook would like to hear more and see more footage of the new Enduros!🤙🙏

[@1_homme_a_la_mer]

Which mast size are you riding ? 80cm ? Thanks ! I d love to have your feedback about the 700 enduro when you ll have Time !

[@TheFoilKook]

80cm UHM. I don't have the 700 but will hopefully have a chance to test it out in the near future!

Since you have been touching the wing tips All the time: could you please comment on how sharp/pointy the tips are? That is what made me interested in the silk in the first place, because I cut my hand rather badly. The silk and enduro Look like that topic was considered more than with other brands.

[@TheFoilKook]

They are sharp - won't downplay that. If you are avoiding sharp HA wing tips then enduro isn't for ya.

[@skatehills]

@@TheFoilKook is the silk less sharp or just possibly better with the upturned tips?

[@TheFoilKook]

@@skatehills the enduro is still slightly sharper

[@SolidsFelt]

Is it faster than the silk?

[@TheFoilKook]

I ride the silk in bigger surf so hard to compare but it felt a bit faster. Let me get some more time on it and report back.

[@TheFoilKook]

Yes 100% faster than the silk. I had to swap out my silk for the 900 yesterday when we had a shorter period swell - there just wasn't enough power for the silk but the 900 was PERFECT!

[@SolidsFelt]

@@TheFoilKook Thanks for the reply!

How’s the pump vs the progression 170?

[@TheFoilKook]

I would say it pumps better than the 140, slightly worse than the 170. At 68kg I think it's the perfect amount of pump - I wouldn't go bigger unless you are looking for a dock start specific wing.

Hello, do you have the long or the short AFS fuse ? witch one is the best for you for the Enduro 900 and 700 ? Thanks, François

[@TheFoilKook]

This is the short fuse (recommended by The Foil Shop) and I have not ridden the long one, however, I'm loving the short on the 900. I would say go short if you are looking for higher performance / faster turns and longer if you want to maximize glide/pump/stability.

[@TheFoilKook]

After another day on the short fuse I think having both could be really nice. The one thing I feel like I am missing is amazing stable glide (which enables those long drawn out carves) or slower paced pumping. I'll probably pick up the long fuse at some point and do a separate review of use-cases for both.

[@FrançoisBoujard]

@TheFoilKook I understand the interest of the two fuselages, I hope you'll be able to test them soon. Thanks, Francois

[@TheFoilKook]

@@FrançoisBoujard What kind of foiling will you primarily be doing with the 900 and 700?

[@FrançoisBoujard]

@TheFoilKook Mainly freefly in medium swell conditions (we don't always have a nice long, regular swell).
