Measured today, 110cm from the front foil bolt centre (which is the middle of the mast track) for the 9.5m HGO, and 111cm for the 8m HGO It's a jp 175L board.




Thanks for taking the time. Interesting as I'm 105 on an HGO 8 and iq foil. 107-108 just make it feel heavy for me. High level IQFoilers I've talked to said they run things "at the back".

We've reached the summer doldrums and it may be a while before I can revisit this.



I run my mast base right at the back of the track with all my sails (HGO 9m, Neil Pryde Flight Evo 8 & 7) if that helps.



Thanks. Appreciate that. So, how far back is the back of the track from the screw if you know offhand? I'm on a custom and the nearest IQFoil board is 5 hrs by car. .

Talked to a local cat foiler this past weekend and need to up my speed game a bit and represent.


106.5 from the front foil box screw hole to the centre of my mast pin when in the track mate. :)

Thanks! Appreciate the effort. That's actually a touch forward from where I am (about 105) but very close. Nice to know that I'm at least in the same neighborhood as others.

Again, thanks.
