I had 1050 and for my 76kg it gets to feel big quickly and much harder to jybe compared to the 980.
To me the 980 is better so just persist.
I am now using the 899 ART 90% of the time as my pumping skills are reasonably good, best wing I've had todate.
I have the ART 899 as well, but I wouldn't call it a good light wind option.
