FEEDBACK: MORE SESSIONS AND PROGRES WITH THE HIPE CRUZADER!

Adding up the sessions with the HIPE Cruz and a Sirus set-up in ultra light wind conditions eventually boosts your progress in all types of conditions.
As we can read in Aurélien’s feedback, the accumulation of flight time and the precision required to make all his maneuvers in the lighter conditions are a source of progress that radiates over all of your sessions. Not to mention the incredible feeling of flying in silence under the mountainous horizon of an exceptional spot!

The only one flying in 6-7 knots
“3 hours of pure fun! I was the only one flying on the lake of Annecy this afternoon. I can see myself a year ago telling myself that in 6-7 knots it was impossible to jibe. Well now I can do it with even less!
I had trouble jibing on my first 2 sessions with the Sirus 156 (fear of the wingspan, too much “J” curve).
For those who are stuck: I forced myself to take it easy, to be one with it so as not to get carried away, and not to rush it at the end of the curve (I draw more of a “C”, which I would not do with a “normal” wing).
So it leaves time to pump quietly when you have the wind in your back. It makes it so stable!
I was riding the stab Sirus 56, Sirus 156, HM70, HIPE Cruzader 7’11 strapless and Pulse 6m² V2.” Aurélien.
A general progression in light and stronger wind conditions
“I was barely making my tacks and jibes before my first HIPE Cruzarder session…I was failing at all my transitions on the Cruzader during the first 2 sessions. I struggled but when I returned to the Lemon it was so much fun! No need to calculate 20s in advance, I could send a tack at the last moment to turn before a wave… Which I couldn’t before.
The length of the Cruz’ gives less headroom, so coming back to a short board is super simple!” Aurélien.
