Thanks everyone. I ordered a Balz sabfoil set today. I did request the 93 mast and added the 969 wing. I was able to try out a Sabfoil a few days ago from a friend of mine. The Sabfoil is very different and the feel is much better suited for the Predator.

Thank you everyone! Another question: Is the Tuttle box on the Predator small? I had to sand down my SB mast to get it in there. I'm borrowing a Sab foil to try out, and the quick release adaptor is super tight. Thoughts?

I've been riding a Starboard Foil 177 w/ the original Starboard foil set in various configurations. I was an early adopter to foiling and got really good at it. But, after 7-8 years of it, it was time for something new. I bought a Severne Predator 110L and have been using the Starboard foils (85cm mast, 1100 Wing, 95+ fuse, 255 -2 stab w/ a -1.5 shim). It does well. I'm used to running a 110cm mast on my Foil 177, but hesitate to run such a long mast on the Predator.
My goal is to have a fast reacting, fun, freestyle-ish foil I can do some basic freestyle tricks. I haven't been in the market for a long time. I'm looking at Sab foils along with others.
What are some recommendations?
Will the Starboard foils hold me back? are they still good? (I do have other SB wings, fuses, stabs and a longer mast I can try.)
