This
is the first test of the F 159 in 6 to
12 knots :
Up wind : The board give you more power
on the rail, so you keep the planing a
little more than the F158. The board
keep the angle beter also in the hull.
The board hit less the waves, so is more
easy to increase your up wind angle.
Downwind : Same as up wind, the board
hit less the waves so you can go realy
deep with more confort.
The result against the F 158 is clear,
the performances up wind and downwind
are really higher.
Sundenly a rain of 5 minutes come with
gust at 20 knots and it was more easy to
control the board even with 12m² on up
wind and down wind. The board don't hit
the waves and glide a lot more and
increase the speed and angle.
Teste: Remi Vila (Martinica)
