Progress in wing is there and you want to switch to a performance oriented front wing? The right time is probably as soon as you think about it 😉 Here is some feedback from Quentin who passed on the Veloce after beginnings on the Rise and the Curve.
“I weigh about 60kg and have been winging for 9 months
I started with the Rise XL before moving on to the Curve XL and L.
I switched from the Zuma 95L to the Lemon 70L and soon to the Lethal 65L.
“It’s crazy good!”
Second session with the Veloce XL.
My feeling? Uh well, to put it simply, it’s crazy good!
Tested with Veloce 47 then 43 stab.
18 knots in the morning, it’s easy to take off in this wind. In the light it stalls quickly. You have to be light footed with your stance.
“I recommend the high aspects.”
Once in flight it’s just a complete blast. It glides so well, it’s a crazy thing compared to the Curve.
I maxed out at 15 knots with the Curve XL and there I was directly at 17, even 18-19 knots (on broad reach) when I pushed a little. It’s a delight.
The jibes? I’ve never stuck so much. It glides so it goes by itself.
In short, I will never go back to a low aspect foil again. I recommend the high aspects to anyone who knows how to jibe.
The 85 carbon mast? It changes life. Compared to the 90 Alu V1 it’s 10 times more rigid. The flight is more stable and therefore easier. A real added value.”
