I have got a froth and have my ART wings 2cm from back, looking at getting a semi sinker (50-60l) board and using straps, what board works well with ART wings? Anyone using f-one rocket v2 and straps with ART?
Loving my Sunova Casey 60L with my Art wings. Boards are stiff and volume is well distributed (not too many kiters in the back). Super durable and well priced. Excellent
It's much easier with Axis as you don't need the tracks as forward as much as other brands. Unless you're using the advance fuselage.
ART wings needs planning boards to get going so avoid boards with a kick tail.
Fone rocket, Takoon glide etc...

What size Froth are you currently using?
I'm 72kg and have been riding the 4'10" 75L Froth for 6+ months. I primarily ride the following setup:
ART999
375p
Ultrashort fuse
960 carbon mast (not the new version)
I know people say that the ART series likes to be ridden further back in the box but I ride with footstraps and have settled on a position that is pretty close to the front. I keep the mast in the same place when I size down to the ART799 in breezier conditions.

I'm 80 kg and got the 5'1 90l for +6 months. I have front straps as far forward as possible ( I think the board is too clunky to jump) and the mast in position 2, using same setup (except 899 instead of 799 )as you but aluminium mast and I still feel on speed/waves it's hard to keep the lift down.
Happy with Armstrong fg 4.5 34 lt, 799,999 altrashort advanced, 325 and 82 HM carbon. I'm 60 kg, using 799 at 2.5 track position and 999 at 5

For some reason, after just looking at this pic, I checked my bank account and noticed it was 5k less!!! Wow!!!
I've had great success with the Quatro and Starboard take off with Axis wings. Quatro I had to put it all the way back, the Takeoff likes to be put in the center.

I've just bought an ak phazer v2 110L with an Axis 1099 foil. I've been told it has very early take off, easily gets up to speed. So far only had 2 sessions on it but still have to get used to the 1099 beast - it takes off way differently than my previous low aspect foil.
