Just wondering if anyone is still surfing their old Takuma Kujira1095 because I am rediscovering & really liking mine, previously I only used my Kujira 1210 (mainly for small waves) but the 1095 does everthing well and performs almost as good as my lift 150hax, so any thoughts or options thanks:-)

AFS is the same designer. Great foils.

Agree with Hilly check them out here same guy who designed the Kujira

Yes. 1095. Don't use it with the original connections though. Great bottom and top ends, turns well, pumps phenomenally. Glides ok.
If it got relaunched today under a different name and using a stiffer connection system, I'm sure it would be very well accepted and maybe even hyped 
Options: AFS Enduro has better glide but turns worse and doesn't pump nearly as well, specially at lower speeds. AFS Silk I've never tried but would probably be more similar given the specs. Heard interesting things about Axis Fireball.

Agree with this - the connections and mast were a real problem on an otherwise great foil. So much play and flex in the Takuma system. Silk is the next step from the 1095. The Silks have similar glide, but roll much better. Clearly the same DNA as the Kujiras. I bet the 1095 with AFS mast and connections would still be a great foil. In fact its kind of hard to say whether the Silks (and Enduros) are THAT much better foils than the Kujiras or whether the AFS system is just 1000% better and lets the foils perform as they should.
