Dockstart vs wake thievery foil sizing

Foils and Boards - Gear Talk

Frame: 95kg, proficient lake winger tacks/gybes on both sides, dry shirt sessions. Usual combo for wing has been 850 or 1050 Sk8 w/ 88L board.

Initially started looking at options for dock start (Jam 1900, also looked at SIC, slingshot). But honestly I’m really just interested in winging and picking up boat wakes easier, and they’re not big enough to put the Sk8 in play without more wing. I’ve also tried my Eagle 1290. The dock start foils seem to…

Skill issue? Would a Jam 1600 give me what I need to flag and ride small boat wakes? Could I make a paddle up work on a 1600 at my weight, or is that a lost cause?

Can’t find a used 1900 to save my life. But 1600s seem to be prevalent.

Im 95-100kg, and use the Jam 1600 as my dock start foil. awesome behind a boat wake, and has a really good speed range. still turns pretty reasonable with a small tail. carve 180 or 160 on a xxs or xxxs fuse. the 1900 is a good dock foil for flat pumping, but even at our weight, is a handfull behind a wake
