Okay just send me one.

[@sammyhagger12]

Vs Laser in terms of speed..?

[@jonemmettsailing]

Very similiar.

[@toster2803]

laser is slower mainly because the aero is so light(in my experience)

[@MrNeonerl]

depends on the sail. If you use the 9 sail, the aero is faster because laser have only 7 m2 sail area. Using the aero 7 is very similar to laser. But the aero 7 accelarate faster.

Does the aero 9 have more speed than the 5/6/7 or is it just for heavier sailors ?

[@jonemmettsailing]

The Aero 9 is the fastest: the bigger the sail area the lower the PY number.

@@jonemmettsailing ohhh okay. Thanks

Depends on the wind. If you sail the 9 and have a lot of wind you have to fight to survive and struggle to keep the boat flat. Under same conditions the 7 can focus on sailing instead of fighting and is faster. But under "normal" conditions (up to 3-4 bft) the 9 is faster.
