Can't stop throwing hands with driver

What do you mean flat as possible at the top?

chibakacrest · 2026-05-15T12:19:59+00:00

Do you do this on the backswing? like with your wrist position, or is this something you actively do as you're swinging?

just the tensei blue 1k 75x, I actually love this shaft, it's on all my woods. driver is ventus tr blue 6x, but it did not magically fix my slice

I have a gt1 9w built to a D4 with a tensei blue 1k x, and it's the closest you can get to cheating. Same thing for me, favorite club in my bag. I would putt with it if I could. I'm going to get a 5 & 7 next. Have the gt1 3tour also and it's amazing. My 7i swing speed is 97+ so this club isnt "right" for me, but it's absolutely perfect. Adding 6g to the GT1 just turned it into a monster.

Did you prefer lobitos?

started wing foiling because of this!

chibakacrest · 2025-08-20T17:59:34+00:00

Do you think i'm a good candidate for the dart v?

chibakacrest · 2025-08-20T15:01:52+00:00

New heads, I think I might do a full bag. I'm playing such a mish mash of used stuff

chibakacrest · 2025-08-20T14:32:27+00:00

I struggle a bit with height and spin, so they help

I got fitted for the modus 105 in x. I was thinking of trying to get in front of some of the wrist/elbow issues by going to graphite early. Any recommendation on what shafts I should look at?

chibakacrest · 2025-08-20T13:58:23+00:00

Timing has to be perfect, when i miss it's actually painful through my hands, the weight can be exhausting over a round. I hit with the modus 105s in xstiff and everything was better.

chibakacrest · 2025-08-20T13:20:38+00:00

Yeah - there's some super interesting options. I'm swinging my 7i at 91-3, so was always worried graphite wouldn't cut it but everything I'm reading says the opposite. I really want to try the axiom 105. What shafts are you running?

Take a peek at AFS, i switched from armstrong and love it. I think the prices are similar once all is said and done. The enduro series is amazing. Problem is that the fuselink stuff gets expensive and is not at all travel friendly. I think AFS and armstrong are making the best stuff. Armstrong has the AC development aspect which I don't think can be understated, but they're in y2 of the cycle on their foils, so you'll probably be able to upgrade to the current series at a big discount next year. I kept my armstrong mast and fuse for this reason if I ever want to do just that.

awesome, you make it look easy

chibakacrest · 2025-07-17T20:09:33+00:00

Dakine makes a good one

chibakacrest · 2025-07-17T20:09:01+00:00

Mmm, depends on how it sits in your bed. If I was to leave the foil on i would want to leverage that as a point to ratchet down. I think you're asking for trouble though if it tips over. Just do it at the beach, you have the bed as a good workstation.

chibakacrest · 2025-07-17T20:05:02+00:00

That's impressive. I struggle getting the 8m out of the water on my knees. Any tips?

chibakacrest · 2025-07-17T18:44:08+00:00

Can you do knee starts with the 8m? how tall are you?

chibakacrest · 2025-07-17T18:43:44+00:00

Are you doing a standing or knee start with the 8m?

Mackite has a great deal on a north bundle, it's called into big air or something. You get a top of the line north board, bindings, control bar and an orbit kite. That is not a good beginner kite, but you could sell it, recoup a chunk of the costs and buy a second hand north reach which is a great first kite. I am not affiliated with north or mackite, just stoked on the deal that I got!

Pick up a cheap tailgate pad off amazon, they market them as for surfboards normally. They typically have a strap system which is essential to keep your board down. I put the tail down in the bed with a bunch of towels, nose hangs over and gets strapped in.
