5.3m on iSonic 101 08

agrelon · 24th January 2010, 09:50 PM

I'm looking for a new board and although I'm mainly considering a Futura 93 I've stumbled across an iSonic 101 from 2008 for a really good price.

I've got a new F8 Ram 5.8m which would be great on it, I think, but I'm not sure how well it could take my higher wind sail, a 5.3m.

I'm quite light weight and generally use a smaller fin than recommended.

Would a 34cm fin and a 5.3m still work ok on this board?

Thanks.

Hi Agrelon,

Better in this case to use the Futura 93 for both sails, the best sail for iSonic 101 is around 7m² so you are far for that but for F93 will be perfect.

If you want to increase the performances of your Futura, go for a C3 Venon 34

Hope this help.

All the best

Thanks, Remi. The iSonic is no longer for sale anyways...
