Actually very similar! The new model doesn’t look that wave oriented though

Video with some discussion on design and comparison with the wizards (114, 90)

Who cares, really, whatever makes u happy…

Update:
had a decent session today
last week had a crapy one
the board slogs easily, it “floats” better then expected. It’s small but stable, won’t ever be a problem getting it in/out. U can gybe, heli tack or even fast tack as on any similar size board.

it goes well with a 4.8, which is the biggest freestyle sail i use. I bet u could out a 5.2 on it but i probably wont bother those days

a little bit more technical and demanding to get on foil than a longer board, but vs the wizard 114 and foilstyle 103 it’s not really a big difference. Surprisingly small difference if any. More of a “dial in” issue i suspect. Vs the wizard 114 which has a fairly wide tail, u get a bit more sideways/yaw momentum while pumping, and u need to bear of the wind a bit more to get it up to foiling speed


on foil u feel the board is built stiff. It accelerates very fast, jumping is more “instant” and carving is very controlled. The swing weight is null, feels almost like the wizard 90. U get a lot less legburn carving up swells vs the foilstyle which with its 199 cm length was pretty terrible for waves and snappy carves.
its very pitch stable. More so than the wizard 114. Exiting gybes switch is easier and feels more secure riding switch longer distances. Feels like the rearbiased volume and mass distrIbution really gave this board some extra edge.

the geometries are also very compact. The rear strap sits around 15-20 cm from the tail, and the mast foot is “as close as u want it”. Its similar to the foilstyle, but the wizard has a more drawn out geometry, with the back foot right at the tail edge, and with the mast foot a lot more forward.

The 753 was great fun, no problem getting on foil or riding straight - but in the turns u notice the stab feels smaller and might slash out

great if u r looking to ”spray ” your top turns, otherwise use a bigger stab. Im 99/100 on the sab 370.

pitch was a non issue which suprised me, but jumps was easier and you really unlock turning om waves with shorter fuse as u can work the pitch axis in a way u simply cant with a 90 fuse. Also the wing is closer to the mast witch makes pitch even more controllable
but getting that wing in the normal foil position is key

Was using regular gong fuselages for wing few years, fuselage 70 -75 cm, now switched to F4, even shorter distance between front leading edge and trailing of the stab, 66 -72 cm. Unless winds are super light, I prefer 66, a lot more responsive, less drag

So u windsurf on a 66?? That’s interesting, and opens up a lot of gear for surf/wave not available on 90 fuses 🤣

om flat water which im mainly on i still use 90 though, but ill experiment more with the 753 for sure. I actually had a couple of runs on my dockstart foil (66 fuse) but it was not a good set up so never spent time on it windfoiling

So Newind were much cheaper than Mojo @sailortrash? But, Mojo accurate on the specs?

Appears so, but newind builds expensive stuff too

I’ll let u know
my pal just received a similar board by newind 66x184, 105, 7.4 kg
He appears to be happy with it (step from slingshot freestyle 115)
way cheaper and built in waterproof core (but hey also build normal way)
discussion with shaper started out at 64x180, 6.9 kg and apparently he’s not the only one who got himself a board deviating from specs

mojo shaper discussion was great, started of from a good template (tasty 107), back n forth on use case, shape alterations and construction, and it came back exactly as specified

How much do you weigh OP? Board looks great, but I think I would have gone just a bit wider for my 82 kgs and pumping.

Key design criteria - width across straps!
im at 79 dry on land…
my experience says “no wider than 64 for true centerstance”

the wizard 114 is 66 and I always found it too wide at the front feet
the foilstyler was 64, which was ok, good even
the foilstyler was 47 across rear foot - a bit too narrow for that board. This board is 51. It will make the board less nervous but with good rail control strapped in

Hi
lots of custom windfoil boards om this forum which is great inspiration
this i my choice and contribution - the windfoil freestyle wave
105 l, 176 x 64
focus of this board was easy of use and low swing weight. The length (hopefully) makes it easier in all aspects, but center of mass is moved a lot to the back so swing should be a non issue in the swell

built by Mojo in hungary with jaw dropping attention to detail

The balz pro works well, both 909 and 969 depending on how fast a wing u need
the razor use another fuse but is very popular for that purpose
