Very nice, well done. Looks awesome👍
Looks like it will be a very versatile board, and interested to see pics of it in action.
Thanks also for sharing the dimensions I requested above, it is helpfull for design process of my next hybrid.

With pleasure. I find shape of this one pleasant to look at. Hope it'll go well...

Agree, the shape looks right to me for this type of board.

Thanks for the build update.

Are you able to share measurements of tail and nose width (one foot from each tip) , max thickness and position of widest point measured from the tail?

Nice categorisation of these boards, separating Formula hybrids, shortened raceboards, and big freerides makes the 3m category easier to understand.
Also agree with railing vs planing, When sailing the Windspeed hybrid in 15+ knots i can find an upwind planing mode with cb half down and mastrack in the centre, and the deep concaves seems to help the nose lift up.

Nice work, and inspiring. Thanks for sharing.
A couple of years back I rescued an old Windspeed ProAm 3m board from the curbside and resto modded into a hybrid raceboard.
It's short enough to fit in my car and great fun in conditions that I don't like foiling in like offshore, gusty winds and shallow water. It is fast and the CB allows me to go anywhere:
Seeing your pics as got me thinking of using this left over 9cm wide middle section from an old RSX into a new hybrid board a bit wider than the Windspeed with a wider tail like yours:

Some of my raceboards below. Also have Phantom 377 for racing, but the old school boards are more durable and handle better overall.
