First time out today with my new 900 cm2 2.0 series Glide Front Wing D/Lab, partnered with H185 rear stab which I already owned.
I'm intermediate level, make around 80% of my gybes and love riding our South Coast bumps and lumps.
Conditions were 3.5 mtr wing weather and I was on a mid length board, which with wettie, harness etc was about 'buoyancy neutral''
I already have a D/Lab Carve 2.0 series 1100 cm2 foil set, so I know how fast the D/Lab kit is, WOW, this Glide is a weapon!
Up on foil really early and super fast. I did need to work at getting the fore/aft pitch/balance, like my new 850 Whizz setup, this is a step forwards in terms of fore aft pitch control.
After 20 mins or so, I felt more comfortable and with the Rustington Wave Buoy showing a 3' swell, albeit short period, the foil just wanted to glide and ride our regular South Coast bumps.
On the faster and steeper sections, the foil just wanted to ride and go fast. One session in and I can see my bump riding moving on to another level already!!
There's so much more to come from this new foil. I will do an update in a few weeks time.
