Thanks but I like to think it's technique more than strength. Anyone can do it :)

Sorry I missed this comment. Hope not too late to reply. If you cannot keep a board straight it is due to your paddle technique. You have to learn good sup paddling technique first before even thinking of flat water paddling up a foil. Have a google and look up paddling a sup straight with J stroke technique :)

It sure is. What a fun sport!!

I think every variable counts to helping obviously, but there is definitely a pay off. Going narrower will help for sure but will also decrease stability. You can increase stability by increasing length and volume :)

Haha no way!!ma1750 probably the easiest before the ha1180 and 1675/1880apf

I have 1700cm2 ar7.2 and am still strugling to get it going from the flats. I hope that If i get the technique right i eventually will. I just have to Watch your videos morę ;)

I think the 202 has even lower end than the 220. The 202 is a bit nicer to pump at low speeds but the 220 has more glide

Hey hey.. 90kg dry

Definitely easier to paddle up bigger board from the start (less strokes) as you don't need to get it on the water surface first. But once up the smaller board much nicer to pump and turn

@@Mickfoil1 thank you, that helps!

Hey! Definitely no overlap with the 1880apf. The 1880 has extreme low end and slow speed easy pumping. The ma1750 is harder to pop up and better top end, designed for light wind winging . Whereas rbe 1880 for dockstarts/flat water pumping!

Thanks! @@Mickfoil1

Hey thanks for the question, it's in the description:) 40L dry bag and 3.5 xps wing. The perfect fit !

hey sure but depends on your level in sup foil. If you just starting out go the biggest HA 1180!

Oh yeah!

Definitely the 1125 for more speed and glide

Easiest is the pump 202 but if you want something with more glide and top end speed for dw use the glide 220

Hi Yes it is a great sup. It's easy for me as I have sup experience. If you tried it and struggled go rather one size up!

It definitely is. I use the 6"3 for winging and it's fun !

Hi this was an old video I think was the short advanced

Hey only saw this now! Thanks! I like your Channel, thank you for the great work !

Hi, sorry only saw this now ! 795pm is great if you want to surf/wing as well as dock start when you want more height for turns to be able to lean over more. more forgiveness for breaching in a straight line too :)

Thx mate, you confirmed my choice! Just purchased a 2nd hand 795, so far only dock starting and riding micro bumps on the lake, but it is certainly a step up from the v2 in terms of glide and stiffness. Easier to control the wide span foils...@@Mickfoil1

Exactly!

Thanks John:) Yeh the long and narrow board with a bit more volume definitely helps !! 220 also will give more early lift than the 195 for sure

Thanks Dave...hoping to be less heavy one day haha

Hey..yeh SUP stability depends on your sup experience /skill level. If you are finding it hard to be stable on that board I will go one size up to the 121L! When you get better you can go down in size. Keep practicing and you will get better. The Armstrong dw boards are great for all found use for dw, small surf and winging !

Hey! 220 I only use to increase bottom end if needed. Mostly use the 180 and I love it much more than the 195. Much better bottom end and pitch stability at speed. You can shim it flatter if you want it to be a bit looser and less drag

@@Mickfoil1 thanks for reply! you reckon the angles on the 180 and 195 are different?

@greg.ocallaghan no they both -1 degrees relative to fuse but I think completely different design means have to tune different

In foiling gear design is a big part I think, all these new foils mean even smaller can be paddled up. Surface area doesn't mean much :)

Look pretty shredded already

Lol just the number on the scale need to get it down 1 or 2 kg down !

Haha indeed , yes it can!!

Thanks for that... i am planning on another video soon!

Great question... those are both big boards with similar high volume. What's your weight and experience level with foiling in surf? Is your surf from an exposed break or in a protected bay...I.e how much power in the surf? Also what foil sizes are you riding?

Thanks@@Mickfoil1 My weight is 86Kg, 49 years young, confident winger (gybing, tacking, downwinding). Winging mostly on MA1000. When I sup surf its with MA1225 or MA1475. Knee to chest high waves. medium power, never go to the peak, I stay outside on the shoulder, I go maybe 30 days a year Think that with the 7.7 I can stay even more on the shoulder and having the board under control if being washed should be similar to the 6.4x31 132l , the 7.7 is longer but lillte bit lower volume 121l. Thx for advice.

yep i agree, slightly less volume on the 7'7 and plenty stable for your weight. Just stay away from others in the line up and definitely can surf far away on the shoulder.

@@Mickfoil1 What leash would you recommend me in the surf wit the 7.7? Waist, knee, ankle? Coil? Length? For my and others safety. Thanks Mick

I use a 7 to 8mm coil to calf leash . Any good quality brand like creatures or Kaohi leash are good. Just inspect for foil Knicks before each session

Amstrong HA1525 /135L: 8’3 x 21 Or will it be difficult to start?)

The ha1525 will be great to learn on in open ocean or bay runs. The ma1750 will be easier to pop up but will be overpowered easier than the ha1525 if waves are a bit more powerful . The ha1525 has better top end speed and glide. Your board specs are perfect

Hi, sorry I have been away for work :) I assume you mean HA1525? Definitely m1750 is perfect for light wind winging and downwind sup foiling for your weight. If you want more speed the ha1525 is even better although you lose the turning ability
