In the V2 high aspect range I tried the Fluid H (XL and M), the Curve H (XL) and the Ypra S (XL and L).
I disliked the Fluid H – it sort of “kicked back” when going into a turn, the Curve H was too ‘tame’ for my taste but I loved the Ypra S for its glide AND manoeuverability.
Taking this into account would you recommend to go for the Ypra Slalom (or maybe surf?) again in the V3 range or as it become very “special”? Might the new Fluid H be worth reconsidering even if I couldn’t make myself like the V2?
Which front wing now comes closest in caharacter to the V2 Ypra S?
Nice overview. When can we expect the V3 Ypra Slalom and Surf to go online?
