A couple observations as I'm feeling these foils out (750/950 with 1050 or 1150 coming). Caveat that I'm mixing in some new tails too which is a secondary variable to confuse things.
these foils are far more efficient than the silk v1 and enduro. Once you are on foil they are faster and just feel smoother through the water. Very noticeable difference in feel. This is the biggest improvement - more efficiency than the enduro and similar roll to the silk v1.
the foils do pump with more drive than the v1s. 750 v2 pumps easier than the 850v1 and the 950 v2 pumps easier than the 1050 v1.
I've seen discussion saying the low end of these foils is dramatically better than the v1 silks but I'm not sure I agree. I'm not finding the same low end in the 950 v2 as I had in the 1050 v1.
the foils either ride more back footed than the v1 and enduro, or they want to be ridden further forward in the tracks. I'm riding them further forward than the enduro and v1 both of which I rode in a similar position.
overall very happy with these and finding that they have replaced both the v1 and enduro for me.
What stabs are you using ?
The low end of the V1 1050 with 152 is pretty insane. You're basically stopped before it wants to drop off foil.
I have V2 1150 and USurf 150 hopefully coming this week.
