Hi
Anyone tried this combination?
I am looking for tips om setup.
Front wing in front or rear position?
Angle of rear wing?
Mast foot position?
My weight is 80 kg (if relevant)
Grateful for any advice :)
Check this youtube. If your foil strut is 90 degrees straight up and down, you don't need the right angle tool in the video.
Set your gear to the video setting as a starting point. Then, as you get some water time, tweak the settings from there. I still use the video settings for foiling with a 6.4 after 225 sessions.
Supercruiser really prefers the mast base back near the front footstraps. It can be used with the wing slid forward on my conventional boards but then gets *almost* too stable. Personally I quite like it in that mode.
Just be careful with the Bolt, the ridge of the concave deck contacts the mast and extension collar too (from 18-28 cm ext. on a Bolt 135, see pic. below), it can get pretty banged up when getting the board into deeper water, letting mast lay across the board in waves, and any time the mast falls. Would also recommend getting or making a good nose guard, you are going to hit it with the mast sooner or later. See my 2019 Bolt 135 left of the mast track on the ridge of the concave deck. I am going to be covering that area on both sides with dual density deck padding. Otherwise a great foiling board with an impact proof foil box.
