Interesting that the Infinity 99 wing for Windsurfing is just for the Levitator. Must really bump the surface area up from the 84 wing.

"WIND - This wing works ONLY on The Levitator boards that offer an adjustable track mount that allows you to slide the whole foil system forward. Super smooth takeoffs and touchdowns. "

Still no information about the Phantasm?

Seems safe to assume that the 99 front end is at the same spot as the 76 and the 84. That means the back end of the wing will be further to the back, and therefore also the "center of effort" (or whatever the correct term may be for the foil). That's already the case for the 84 compared to the 76. So if the "C" position works for the 84, then the 99 would require a "D" position. Easy to do with mast tracks, not doable with a tuttle box unless you are willing to drill another thread or two into the fuselage.

I'm keen to hear about the phantasm too. The expected launch date I was told of around of the end of July has come and gone.
Saw a you tube interview with Jeff Logosz about the phantasm foil which pretty much says nothing:



Had been hoping they would do a high lift/low drag wing this year too.

2371 cm2 vs 2066 cm2. The 99 is pretty pricey in my neighborhood.

Should be picking up the 65 infinity wing in a couple of days I often find myself overpowered on the 76 with my smallest sail,just thought I would give it a go from what i hear its going to seem a lot faster!
