Nice breakfast. How dose that foil compare to the 1201?

[@downwind_drifter]

@@503Foil faster speed, faster turn and roll. Much less loading at speed, I find myself trying to take this foil as fast as I can. It flys. Less low end than the 1201 by a few kph not sure exactly how different though. The 1099v2 is a step down foil for when conditions are just slightly more energised than the minimum requirement for the 1201… maybe about 15kt winds get me out on the 1099v2 with unlimited fetch as an 83kg rider.

Thanks for the video. How does it compare to FB1070?

[@downwind_drifter]

It’s quite like the fire ball but with more chord giving it a bit more bottom end security catering for thuggish inputs. I have a video comparing them in the next couple days

[@fredrik1926]

​@@downwind_drifterThanks. I look forward to that 👍

Nice video again! Question about the board. I have the same board but it's 18.5 wide and not 19 like you mention. Is this an earlier prototype you are using? cheers

[@downwind_drifter]

@@Charlie-fl1tl it could be a proto, I’m not sure. A friend of mine has a 7’10 as well, I’ll see what width his one is. What is listed on the website? This one says 19”

[@Charlie-fl1tl]

@@downwind_drifter Website says 18.5. my dw buddy and I have the same board and it says 18 1/2 🙂

[@downwind_drifter]

@@Charlie-fl1tl yea interesting, my 8’4 is 19.5 too. It must be a proto, I got it directly from north…

[@Charlie-fl1tl]

@@downwind_drifter or maybe it says '19' on the 7'10 but the actual width is 18 1/2? 🙂
