Looking at the water, my guess is, you would have flown with your hipe5'3 as well, no? I also have th e hipe5'3 and think about a cruzader. But mostly because i hope i can use smaller foils at leas wind. The hipe pro doesnt get fast enough With its bow wave in front of it...
I would have struggled with my Hipe Pro. With my weight on it i find i need to be going much faster to take off. My pumping technique is not very good yet - if i was fitter and better at pumping then maybe. In this vid im using my 7.5mtr superpower wing as well. The hipe pro creastes a lot of drag and dirty water unless the wind is strong enough - then i can pump the wing and get up quickly. I just need more time and practice. But The Cruzader is really fantastic at speeding up and taking off MUCH earlier for me 😃
@@andrebabin5153 I was about 110kg (a bit less now) I'm 6ft 2 as well so. Bigger is better. I can totally relax on this board. It will take my weight easily and I really don't notice the length when I'm riding it. It has mounts for straps but I don't use them as I prefer the freedom to move my feet in different positions It's really a great board. I let 2 people have a go last weekend and they both got up on foil straight away.

I am planning to order an inflatabale crusader. Why did you buy the lenght 7ft 11" What is your weight? Is it strapless? Thanks!

Nice video, but there are a lot of weird beeping noises.
