I’ve only ridden the 72 sorry! For what it’s worth the 72 measures identical to axis 75 (the 72 is to the start of the ‘doodad’ section of mast). You folk probably already knew that…
Sorry I maybe wasn’t clear, I was asking about your experience with stability and control, specifically this line, taken somewhat without the preamble context
Decreased stability in turbulent waters and tip breaches.
Thanks yes that helps
The actual thought is:
I am wondering if the feeling you describe comes down to the less stable nature of a shorter chord. Seems likely not the case, but something to consider.
Ia that a custom mast from AFS you’re getting next week? I don’t see those measurements on anything on their website
I guess this is the 75
I believe they are also working on a skinnier mast (less chord and thickness) ; at least around 85 cm. The 85 is already a super super good mast.
With such a low chord, you can miss a bit of precision when pumping.
The 80 seems to me more recommended with larger Foil (such as the Enduro or the Ultra)
I have heard some complaints from (potentially bias) axis HM users that their friends with NLv2 have had to shim their axis adaptor to get a good fit. Has anyone got photos examples of the alu tape used for such purpose? Id like to make sure I’ve got the connection as stiff as possible.
