The nose of my 7' light wind wing board has a tendency to dive. It's an older board with modern foil and the tracks are too far back. I'm thinking of attaching some lead to the back to balance the board better. There would be a few people with this problem so I thought I'd put it out there. What do you recon? Why does nobody do this?

Buy a better board.

Extend the tracks. I've put two 8" boxes in front of tracks for people a couple of times. Or just bung in chinook 16" tracks in the right place
