I'm testing the 180speed tail, winging.
1125 ha/ 60fuse/ 935 mast.
First impressions: it adds A LOT of front foot pressure compared the 195ha tail.
I moved back the mast but still my front leg hurts after a while, if i move the mast more back the pressure is more equal but i feel the board need more speed to raise up.
Did not feel a lot of difference in increasing speed compared to the 195ha.
But i felt a lack of pumpability which i need especially in weak conditions.
It whistle, not a lot but i will have to sand it.
Overall i prefer the 195ha tail right now.
The information I have is that that tail is in -2 where the 195 is at -1. That means i can use probably use 2 red shims for the same effect?
i'll try that but i'm afraid the the main problem in my case was with the front foot pressure not equal on both feet. When i want to push upwind i usually crank it on both feet, now i have to crank mainly on the fron foot, and the feel is like i'm only on one foot (the front one)and not stable like before.
What is your feedback about it?
thanks!

One session with the 180 and 925 so far. I agree about the added front foot pressure. I had it at the same position on the mast track as the 1750MA (6).

I was able to go about as fast as I've gone on that 925 in decent chop and felt very in control, without any concern about forward pitching with speed spikes, so I'm pretty stoked! Less twitchy overall and felt amazing ripping hard on S turns powered up. Didn't get to pump it much, but the glide seemed impressive. Should get another session in tomorrow.

Sounds ideal. Exactly what ive been chasing. Sick.

180 speed test update:
I tried it today with 1 red shim. Much much better!
More equal pressure, fast but in control, it pumps good!

Yeh that is what my son said - he and most the team riders were frothing over the 180 versus rhe 195 - especially for hard carving and they said it pumped awesome - for Ha and also the MA wings. One red hey. You may not need that for an Ma wing as the front foils are offset different to Has.
