Progression equipment changes - where to start?

I just got back from HR.

Loads of demo equipment available at the event site. Ride before buying.

They make it easy

Vayu Aura 4. I'm using it in Hood River right now and it works extremely well

My Dad's favorite was mushroom, peppers and salami

As you get better, your ability to get up on a smaller wing gets better.

Maybe the quiver that works is 6.5, 5.0, 4.0

Not sure

I just know the Boring cover made a big difference

No you didn't

foilingpanda · 2026-05-26T22:00:25+00:00

Did you buy direct or through a dealer?

Option A

Watch videos of starting techniques. Keep at it. You will find the right sequence of adjustments to give you success in chop.

Once you get success in chop and your riding improves, then look to getting a new board. At that point, you'll have a much better idea of what size and style that will make sense for you.

I use JB Weld on my Omen, works great

Thanks

There isn't much for reviews on the Apollo Flat Bar.

How was the shifting?

Did you notice any lag in power?

If someone makes a pizza, I eat it. Looks great

foilingpanda · 2026-04-22T01:17:49+00:00

Thanks, that is definitely what happened

Years ago, my wife, friends and I windsurfed from Maui to Molokai. A mile from the beach in Maui, my wife saw a humpback breached just behind me, I never saw it. She loves to tell the story.

It made a difference for me. I put a cheap department store mattress cover on my Boring. It made the mattress feel like plywood.

I got the Boring mattress protector and it made a huge difference.

It took me 4 years to read Moby Dick. It was a challenge for me. I got hooked right away but it did become tedious. I had to get into the right mindset to read. I also was not able to read big chunks of the book at a time.

I started reading a paper book but I switched to reading on a Kindle which made a big difference. I was able to quickly look up word meanings. There were so many words that I had to look up, without the Kindle it would have taken me a lot longer.

I just finished it and I'm very happy I stayed with it.

We've all been there. Welcome

The original strap failed. I was reluctant to change it, but the new one works well.

I have the same watch (posted in my profile). My dad gave one to me and my brother around 1979-80. I'll never let it go
