Foil: 2008 SkySki Launch (B39), Evo Tower. Tbar set at 37.5
Previous Wings: Max Air front, launch rear.
New Wings (nothing else changed): SwitchBlade XXX front and U.F.O rear
First of all, thank you sooo much Marty for making your setup work on the B39!!!
It took me just 3 quick adjustments to set the rear wing forward/back and shim and it was dialed in for my riding.I ended up with the rear wing set in the middle with a distance of exactly 10" from the front wing. The shim was set at -1 degree.
The first thing I noticed was how much faster it took off when I cut out. I would lean and it would shoot off to the side of the boat with perfect control. I went back and forth a bunch of times just to get used to the feeling I have longed for soo long.
Sencond thing I noticed was the stomp was much faster (One thing I was really looking forward too) and the takeoff was booming. The line was getting loaded harder from just a regular air jump than on my previous setup by far.
As I took to the air and landed I could tell exactly when the wing hit the water and flight was regained w/out smacking the board on the waterYahoo! I did notice a change going from rear wings w/winglets to the wingless. It took and few more jumps to learn the new looseness which I really like. A few more jumps and I was doing big tail grabs and fakies.
Off to the flips: air gainer with a tail grab held twice as long as I have ever held before (awesome), then wake backroll that took me 5+ feet into the flats. Wow, where did that come from. I hardly ever land in the flats. Air roll on the other side, nice landing and again, no board smack. I am loving this setup. Wake roll the other way and again in the flats. OKOK, I need a longer rope now. The air gainers, air rolls and wake rolls kept coming one after another. I flipped untill I was exhausted with the MOST CONSISTENT and STYLISH SET OF MY LIFE. Man I wish there was a 3rd person in the boat to film it!!!
Thank you so much for setting my B39 and my riding at a new level.
I am now a Very Happy TROLL![]()
