Hi
I still ride an old gong v2 freestyle foil when winging, but i feel my stab is too big : its like a 200cm2 : cant get past 25 knots of max speed, its very heavy on the front foot past 20 + i'd like even more manoeuvrability.
I am not too fond of the idea of buying new parts for this old foil because its un-sellable now, and I wanted to know if some of you had ever changed the shape of their stabs, and reduced its surface : how to do it, through sanding, sawing then sanding ???

I already cut a little chunk of my old FW after smashing it on the rocks, and that thing was assymetrical af but still worked just fine. But maybe stabs will react differently ?

Interested in Your feeedbaks. Might not answer everyone but thanks all for reading and contributing on this great forum it helps me a lot in all discussions
Apoplogies for voc I'm not a native english speaker

Hacksaw works great...

Okay thanks.
Will destroy it monday and try it as soon as I can
I think it's full carbon but the fw I sawed was foam inside, I just put some strat and few minutes of sanding it worked.

Oh okay thanks for that i'll see your vid and try it out
