I'm aussie, and I wave sail and I'm average
so...
That boom looks to me like it would be good for flat sails. For sails with a deep draft you would need a more rounded curve at the front of the boom if you didn't want the sail cloth to sit on the boom.
i dunno.

Just guessing, ( I use a Loft carbon wave and its about the same weight and narrow), but I suspect that the wider front end of a standard set might be a little more user friendly. Being wider you can hang a little further out and/or grip a little further forward. If anything I'd be inclined more towards the bulgy fronts like the Prolimit for ease of boom handling in transitions. However I'm just guessing.
I don't think that the sail touching the boom is a problem.

I'd love to give one a try, I usually rig my sails fairly flat so don't think the shape would be a huge issue.

They say that the point of making it so slim is that you are more inboard while sailing, and that it makes tacking small boards easier, and lets you go up a wave at a steeper angle...anyway, the text is quite interesting but for some reason I wasn't able to copy it, so you'd need to go to the website and click on the pink arrow...
