Fanatic Falcon 2020 (115) - first impression

I'm testing out one of my new 2020 Falcon boards, spot is Grosses Meer, sailsize 7,0.

Really impressive speed. The best I have ever got on my gps is 59.9kph which was on my old Fanatic Mega Jag, which was a pretty old small board sailed with a 4.7m, so to see these speeds on a 115L board in less than ideal conditions is pretty amazing. Thanks for the upload. Andy

That is an impressive speed with that gear, of course the slalomgear has some more potential ;)

Dear Nils, greetings from Brazil. Very good video, not only for the good speeds, but there is the first video that I watched with any fanatic falcon’s set up. Unfortunately there are few fanatic boards here in Brazil and is very tough to get any setting tips. Please if can do more videos commenting about your set up.

Hey Jose, sounds like a good idea for a video to go more into depths on the whole trim, i will do one!

Hi, what’s the minimum wind force to start planning with a 115L and 7.0? And the ideal wind range to go smoothly without too much overpower?

[@WindsurfingNils]

With my weight (85kg) 15 knots min to plane, good to use in 17-25kts base wind (gusts to 30-35 is still possible)

@@WindsurfingNils Thanx, HUGE RANGE!!!

[@bobvandeburgt]

How did you get sponsored by Fanatic? Did they approach you or did you approach them?

[@WindsurfingNils]

HeyBob, I approached them, besides your actual results on the racecourse it's important for the brands that you represent them well on the surfspots and especially on socialmedia! If more people are interested in that topic I could talk about it in some future video maybe...

Nils Bach would be interesting!
