Yeah, that's really disappointing. A big marketing campaign on social media for weeks — and now just a refreshed Mode Pro...
There was a video on Instagram by Mike Raper from January 6 where he's testing the SFv2 - and now: nothing again. They're very slow!
Have they even introduced a new foil designer since Uli Sommerlatt left?
They are late to the party so they need to make a confident entrance with stock on hand to prove it. My journey on North is from R1850, A600, 320(ish) to now using the dw820,C650,S142 on UHM85. I used the SF1080 and SF830 with S215/C700 on the way. The waves we get here are always wind driven and the power is often in the lower range for SF. The dw820 turns very well and suits our conditions better in that sense. What I do miss, and this might be just my skill holding back, is the more surf stile powerful bottom turn from the back foot that I can do with the SF830 (imagining its a bigger wave than it is :-). I come from Kiting on surfboard. Opinions shared are usually linked to their home conditions and riding stile. If North comes with a breed of SF and DW I think they will be on the money for me, but I don't think DW is outdated. It is underestimated!
