New to the forum and appreciate all the amazing content and knowledge being shared.

Does anyone tow with the Amundson Fire Bolt and have some thoughts on it?

Thanks!

I only have experience with an amundson strapped kite surf board but the design / build was top tier . I bet the amundson foil boards are top shelf too. Would love to try one some day.

Have about 15 sessions towing on the 4’6 now since the beginning of April- pulled the trigger. I am a bigger guy- 200lbs so went with his stock 4’6 instead of the 4’2. Solid board and bomber construction. Really makes a world of difference compared to towing on my prone board that is a 4’8 big boy. Definitely takes some getting used to pulling up on a smaller foil for the larger days without board float, but figured it out.

By now I assume you pulled the trigger on something. I have the Fire Bolt tow board 4-6 as well. Agree with all comments above. I love the board but there are easier boards to get up on. The easiest one I have ever tried is the Armstrong WKT. It’s only an issue when you tow with someone with less skill.
