Hi scheggia,
What is (or was) your absolute low limit for the Hybrid 5.7? I hated it at the beginning and considered selling it the very first day, trying to understand why it kept doing the “downloop” effect, until I discovered that it does not like being flown in the A lines. Then I had a couple of good sessions in the 13-16 range, but I am very disappointed with the low end…With my weight (72 kg) and a downwind board I thought that I would be able to get up on foil at 10-12 knots, which is not the case. I even think that my PT skin 4.0 has similar low end than the hybrid 5.5!
In your experience, has the LTX 5.5 a better low end compared to the hybrid 5.7? Seriously considering a skin 7.3 as I get a lot of days with steady 8-10 knots (I sail near you, 60 km down the coast, in Comarruga, well-known for its frustrating light “garbí"…)
