airsail said..Retina said..Sinker + Parawing, hard work for average riders?
Recently changed to a 14lts under my body weight for all conditions. The secret sauce is length, I often see people struggling with the nose sinking when trying to get up, extra length stops this and makes getting going simple. Some will say ‘swing weight’, but really, we are riding swell not doing wild cut backs so some extra inches isn’t an issue.
The big manufacturers haven’t worked it out yet, still too much volume in anything longer than 6ft but I’m guessing that will come next season.
6’5x19x68lts Sunova Pilot Mid
www.f-one.world/product/rocket-free-surf/Available in 6'2 for 71L, so similar.
Anyway, I never get the point of parawing, because sure, you get all that freedom when you fold away the parawing, and then are stuck with a 20ft board and big foil. I think I'd rather wing on a 4'10 board instead, but never tried the para.
