Very interesting unboxing and comparison, wish to you good "foilings"! I also had a "private" unboxing last year of a Neil Pryde SLR 80 foil. Cannot obviously judge the performance but the carbon finish and fitment quality of the NP is visibly higher than that of both the Patrik and the F4, cannot say the same for the foil bag though which is pretty basic. Congrats on being a Wind lounge rider, nice team of people!
It is not a big problem, I will just make the hole slightly bigger. The wing can be mounted as is but there is resistance on that one screw compared to to the other wings so best to adjust to not ruin the screw over time. Compared to many other windsurf products this is next to nothing in adjustment.
@@surferkaspert4679 I had the same problem with Phantom Infinite rear wing and they told me there is no problem, but later on the wing broke. Got spare one after a month.... Now I am on Patrik as well, just got three of five front wings and they fit perfectly. Was surprised as you mentioned your problem. About the jibing like Michele Becker - I am afraid it's not all in the foil ( at least mine ) 😢
Nice video.!!! Can you make a test with the torsional stiffness of the masts? (as the board is upside down , you can insert the mast and the fuselage. Then a small torsion can be applied on the fuselage so we can see how the mast reacts - on Aeon and f4 if possible - )
Best bang for your buck is an used 2022/23 ZFOIL (PWA winner also) as this have full carbon fuselage (much lighter/stiffer than Al). These foils you can find around 3k from the second hand market.
Hi, congrats to your new foil! Hopefully the gybes will go as expected ;) Have fun and let us know how it is going!
Otherwise it depends on the rider 😉
Nice video. Thanks for sharing. That taper where the mast meets the fuselage is a very good idea. The screws don’t work as hard, I guess.
Great. Love the cooperation with the Windlounge and I‘m curious to see what brand you will be sponsored by
Welcome to the team. We are super happy to send you more stuff and get your reviews, always a pleasure!😄
Nice & calm video - welcome to the Wind Lounge team!😄 Also just got my Patrik foil, smoothes thing ever!

can't wait to get in action review ; by the way, congrats for your new team rider position at wind lounge

Quite disappointing that wing doesn't fit. Will you get replaced wing or do you have to take care about by yourself ?

Great idea, but my F4 foil was sold the same day as the new foil arrived and got collected yesterday
OK. even the Aeon? If possible..
Thanks a lot!!
@@dimitristzortzis1936 I will do it in the video where I test the foil on the water for the first time, hopefully in the following week
@@surferkaspert4679 great!!! thanks a lot !!! have a nice day !!!

I think the aeon is easier to foil with the same speed :) i am selling my z cheaper in new condition if someone wants
You mean f4 foil right?
@@justelis5179no, aeon is easier … just try it and you know what i mean :)
@@justelis5179no nothing about the f4 in this discussion 😊
Windlounge ❤ Patrik ❤ Kaspar ❤ 😉
So, you are leaving FMX boards from Holland ?
@@fp3359 no I just have the foil from Patrik. Johan is also using the Patrik foil is his FMX boards. 🤙. I think it’s the best foil at the moment
