I second Raffig’s points. The 5.7 hybrid does not like being underpowered at all. Unlike single skins, there is a wind range where this is enough wind to fill it but not enough wind to control it. That with added annoyance of the inflated tips and having to drain it every time it goes in the water while waiting for a gust to get up I won’t use it until 15knots. But then at that wind speed I can be on smaller more nimble single skin. Maybe these Hybrids and Dual Skins just don’t make much sense in larger sizes and should be kept for higher end conditions?
