Description

Mid 2019 started wind foiling. I added three layers of carbon cloth around top and bottom of fin box on my CarbonArt formula board (last proto maybe 2011 ? ) . The Slingshot foil,long mast and 84 wing work well with the board, but as of 1-1-20 can't foil gibe. Max speed 13.9 kts.... took off back foot strap. Foiling is the best😃

29-6-20. Sold the CA board and now use my starboard 159 formula board. I added more carbon to deck sides for mounting as well as extra three carbon layers top and bottom around fin / foil box. Also glued on rubber deck on the work area.

weight of 159 is almost 11kg, very comfortable with Slingshot foil 90 mast, 76 & 84 wings.

max speed to date 15.9 knots.
