Kluber 80, 87 or 95?

In pumping, board compactness is a major advantage for going the distance. Every bit of performance matters when chasing new records. And with hundreds of pumping movements for the most enduring pump foilers, the difference between a Kluber 80 and 95 becomes significant.

The Kluber 80 is the most high-performance. It develops the least inertia and gives you that direct feeling of pumping straight on the foil with no energy loss, offering comfort and a stance suitable for all body types.
The Kluber 87 and 95 are extremely close in performance. Over one-minute runs, the difference is hardly noticeable. However, a larger size offers several advantages:

Extra length compensates for foot placement hesitations. On the Kluber 80, you need to “land perfectly” from the get-go (an advantage in the long run, since you know exactly where to set your feet on the board).
Less intimidation when jumping onto the board. More room for your feet means more confidence.
Extra surface under the nose helps you bounce off the water more easily after a poorly timed start—especially with foils like the Trail, whose lift allows you to climb back up the mast after a touch.
More width under the back foot gives you the option to offset your stance for tighter turns with very high aspect front wings.

In summary

For optimal pumping performance, choose a Kluber 80, regardless of your weight.
To gain tolerance in foot placement, go for the Kluber 95.
The Kluber 87 is an interesting compromise: ultra-efficient yet less intimidating than the Kluber 80.
