Do you think is it possible to modify a 2016 Titan 120 in to Hover Titan 120 by installing two U.S. boxes?
Of course the tail should be reinforced using some carbon skin.
I have added 2 US fin boxes to a friends old starboard carve and kept the tuttle box. You need to set boxes in some pvc foam though. The carve had a big v in the bottom which is a pain because the us boxes need to be level.
Hi Johno
I have been using the Naish thrust in my RRD slalom board with deep tuttle (has flat tail bottom)... I was thinking of having 2 US fin boxes installed so I can move the foil forward and aft.
On your friends board how far forward from the tail or in relation to the tuttle box did you install the 2 US boxes? do you have any pics and/or measurements please? Thanks
I just went off my Naish hover and the Naish titan. Basically the fin boxes go under the rear strap. Mast track position on the carve was a bit far forward but does not seem to effect the sailing.

The 120 SURF/SUP/Crossover WS is primarily a Surf SUP/SUP Foilboard. Howver it does Wind Foil surprisingly well, and is a great option for a 3 sports in one board. The smaller mast track is because with the setup there is little options really available due to the foil positioning. It is used with the Thrust Surf Foil, the Other two boards are best used with the Thrust WS foil (the dedicated WS Foil), which provides some specific windsurfing performance advantages.
Basically if SUP/Surf is your main aim, then you'd go the Hover 120 Crossover with Thrust Surf (M or L or Malolo). But if your mainly looking to Wind Foil and want the best windfoiling performance and light wind ability, then the Hover 122 with Thrust WS. I think the option of the Titan Crossover is pretty obvious. This will work best with the Thrust WS set at the very back of track but give great performance with the Large SUrf Thrust set at the front of the tracks.
I hope this helps.
Ride safe,

What whould you say is the big differance windfoiling the Thrust Surf L vs Thrust WS foil ?
Independently of board you use witch of them take you into foiling first (at lowest windspeed when windsurfing) ?
