Anyone have experience winging the HPS650? What wind/wing conditions (+ body weight) got it working optimum and how is the top end .. with which stab/fuselage? I weight 63-64kg and love cranking tight (back foot heavy) jibes and bump and jump kind of wing'ing. Thanks.
I have the BCS 740 and now ART 799 both with 350p stab and both are excellent over 12kn wind with my 5.5 Duotone dlab, I am 76kg.
If you have excellent pumping skills and 15kn plus wind I reckon it will work and be super fast.

Thanks. Did manage to get hold of a ART799 and now trying to dial in with my Advanced Ultra Short and 375P stab (and looking forward to test with a 350 or 300P stab should the opportunity comes). So far, it's very responsive and whips around quickly for sure but needs a little more pitch control 'awareness' vs my HPS830. Like to bring the setup to some decent swell and report how it goes vs. my daily driver HPS830.
