I have been struggling abit with my pump on the sk8 750 8.0ar - when there is backwash or when tide is changing during prone foiling.
I have noticed many many times that as the tide is changing I’ve been getting pulled into the wave face when pumping back out more drastically during low-midlow tides…which all makes perfect sense on how the wave is breaking(mix of beachbreak and reef/gradual).
I also notice that it feels like it takes more energy to pump back out as well during tide changes.
whereas if there is no water movement/tide change it is less energy to pump.
Do you guys generally size up if you aren’t timing tide changes?
