    Another great video Matt! The speed of that SabFoil 769 is impressive. Since you are using the Slingshot Phantasm 360 tail is it also interchangeable with the Slingshot Phantasm masts and fuselage or do you need a SabFoil mast /fuselage too?

  • @AustinActive

    Thanks ! Fortunately the sabfoil front wings are compatible with the slingshot phantasm fuse. Just order the sabfoil conical washers and it's a perfect fit.

    Nice and smooth ride, smoking the wingfoiler😂. I'm a windsurfer and also windfoiler, the point is why using the foil also in clear planing conditions? Yesterday for me it was the same, I was on foil but with wind that started rising I would have switched to fin

    Thanks, I foil in all wind conditions now. Ripping around with tiny sails in high wind is a blast. I use a 103 foil mast to fly above the chop and waves. The smaller high aspect front wing is not affected by the waves.

    Don't need or use them. My back foot is always dancing for maneuver's and dealing with gusty winds. Started with back straps, but could never stay in them long enough to make it worth it. Plus the board was delivered with 4, so I have an extra pair when the others wear out 👍

    Get some speed, release back hand early, focus on riding the foil through the turn, not the sail. Once you start the turn, maintain Constant rail pressure. Keep feet planted and shift body weight. If you get pulled to the inside and crash, you held the back hand too long. Let the back of the sail go, and just hold the front of the mast. Took me a long time to foil jibe.

    Hi Matt, excellent solution! I already managed to twist my ankle badly during a flaka attempt (resulting in being a few months out of the game) so I definitely see the benefits of such safety system :) I'm sure you are already thinking about this: pre-installing your system in the board so it would be flush with the deck of the board?

  • @AustinActive
    @AustinActive3 ай бұрын

    Thanks, Part of my design criteria was to keep the stack height above the board as short as possible. I didn’t want to be able to feel it with my bare feet. It took 5 prototypes to get there, but I can't tell it's there and I have an 8.5 foot. An unexpected bonus was for large feet. Some of my customers have a hard time with large feet in booties where the strap is too small, even at the max adjustment of the strap. The extra height above the board gives them more room to work with. The "in board" function would be cool, but I don't see myself making boards. Don't have that skill set 😁

    Thanks, the winds were max ~20 knot gusts. But the gusts can be narrow wind lines that only last 5 seconds, so not enough time for waves to build. I'm 140lbs on a 114L board and 1456 cm2 front wing. 103 carbon mast.

    Hi Maury, sail 3.7 goya fringe. Rider 140 lbs. Winds were 7-gusting 17 knots. All the video obviously shot during the gusts. Phantasm 103W carbon mast. I also have the PFI730 front wing. The G800 in comparison to the 730.. Rolls nice and controlled rail to rail. very stable and easy to jibe. The extra glide gives a lot of time to jibe. The video at 1:47 duck jibe illustrates the glide with the delayed foot switch. Heel side turns generate a lot of lift. It's more of a carve, wide radius turns where the 730 is more agile spin on a dime wing. The take off, and stall speeds are similar, with the 730 being a little better at the extreme ends, but hardly relevant in the big picture. Finally got out in some 25 knot winds last Thursday and had a blast. Good upwind speed is a bit easier than the 730. The 730 will do it, but requires a bit more skill to hit the sweet spot. As of yet, I can't say it's any faster (at lease with me) than the 730. My max on the 730 has been 21.8 knots. Your G900 should fly very easily I would think.

    Hey Matt what an interesting idea, can't believe you figured out how to engineer that! I haven't had a problem with my footstraps yet but in pushing my foiling to ever faster speeds - I have had some of the most violent "catapaults" of my life. The worst part is when my harness lines finally arrest my "flight" and my neck gets viciously whiplashed! ...it has made me think about break- away harness lines to save my neck. Could you adapt this technology for harness lines???

  • @AustinActive
    @AustinActive Жыл бұрын

    Hey fleet, thanks. I design mechanical systems and machine for a living, so I make things for my own needs and put them on line for sale. I think someone already makes a harness hook just for that situation. Probably search Seabreeze windfoil forum to find it. My break away foot straps have saved me several times that could have been bad. I was at max speed a couple days ago and hit a submerged anchor buoy line that hooked the lower wing and slammed me down hard. Luckily only my knee hit something (boom, mast, board,? IDK). Foot straps popped loose as designed 😅

  • @AustinActive
    @AustinActive Жыл бұрын

    Thanks, it was a weird wind day. 2-16 knots from the east. But the 16 knot wind line would last a minute or two, then drop to near zero. We typically never have wind and flat water. Nothing was planned, my son just happened to show up with his drone. That was just enough wind to make the 3.7 work at my 140 lbs. I'm also on a low aspect wing that has a huge dynamic speed range of ~4-21 knots with me on it (slingshot phantasm 730PFI).

    @@AustinActive Thanks Matt I'm curious about the Phantasm 730 PFI I used to ride the Infinity 76 which I loved but it was kind of slow. I switched to Moses ( Sabfoil) and generally use their 683 front wing (1005 sq cm) with my small sails 5.2 - 3.4. I'm 165 lbs and I can push that wing to just over 24 mph in flat & windy conditions. ... what do you think is the fastest that 730 PFI wing will go?

    @fleetwoodmarine Cool, Actually just got off the water and had a great session. Wind gust were 25 knots recorded on my boat dock. I actually finally broke 21 knots (21.6). In pretty big chop/white caps. I started on the I76, but it was very lifty and hard to control at speed ( at my weight). I would always foil out in swell.The 730 also had more glide going through jibes. I've been curious about the sab foil 799, or the new slingshot G800 on max speed, but can't find any numbers. I've read the G800 is less affected by chop and swell which would be nice. I have to focus on keeping the 730 deep enough to not follow the surface of the wave. The 103 mast helps a lot to get it down deep.
