Very good vid 👍🏼 to show the difference between fin and foil. It confirm my perceptions. Very low wind, foil is faster. Foiling jibes are faster. But if the wind is enough, fin is faster.
Slalom is in the Gusts (12-13 knots) definitely faster. In low winds / lulls (9-10 knots) speeds are comparable but foil gear will overtake the slalom gear in the jibe then.
@@femkeenjelle3826 don't know. Never competed in that class. Is it possible for me to start there as a german? Currently it's also pretty cumbersome to enter the netherlands. Hopefully it'll be better next month :/
Normally you can always join, but like you already mention it will be harder to enter this year due to the regulations. Personally think it's still a bit unsecure if the event will be held. At least interesting to experience a new race format with slalom and foil gear in one heat: i'm curious!

Amazing gybing skills! What a joy to watch!
And what is the result? Which one ist faster in light winds? A comparing needs a result.

@@femkeenjelle3826 well another aspect to consider in favour foil is the confort with chop for calves and also noise for ears!
Looking great but soooo jealous of your flat water. Our sea was ridiculous this Sunday and I was the only one on slalom gear.
beautiful video the foil looks great
🔥🔥🔥🔥Great action!!!
Interesting video, thanks
aaah so nice!!! I understand you! 😄🤙🏾
really interesting, at "not pwa levels" normal slalom still seems to be by far superior. What front wing size did you use?
We do agree! You have to be a fast foiler (at least at our level, haha) to overtake the slalom gear in the gusts! We used a small front wing (639).
Nice video. Do you know what sort of speed you were making?
Maximum speed was around 45 km/h on the foil, around 50 km/h on the slalom gear
Great footage. What was the rig sizes?
Thanks, 8.5 on slalom gear and 7.8 on the foil!
Very nice video,what size front wing on the foil and brand
We use a MOSES foil, 85cm mast, 639 front wing
@@femkeenjelle3826 very small wing
hello super your vidéos will see mine if you want ! thank you (de France)
championships in may? NK or regiocup?
NK slalom! Do we see you there? 😉

Nice movie but terrible music. Can't bear to listen. Would much rather just hear the wind and the water.
