Isonic 110 or 117

I would like an opinion with respect to which of these two boards (Is 110 or Is117) would suite my purposes. I weigh approximately 82 kilos and have been sailing for 30 years. I presently own a...

I can't think of any sport where one individual has dominated like BD has. I was fairly young when he started winning titles. That was then (23 years ago) and this is now.

My impression of the FF138 (have both versions) is that it will plane really early, but wont maintain the plane as well through lulls as an Is 131 or 150. Once the newer boards plane they want to...

BD uses a low boom position, relatively speaking, and a wide harness line position because it works! He must be very comfortable with this set up and you can't argue about how fast he is. I've been...

I too bought a couple of NP pads and cut them off the part that attaches to the boom. They have two clips each which hold them onto the mast -- just keep the clips away from the cambers.. I...

The "best" deal with it and move on. "Fair" really isn't part of the equation. This sort of thing happens at various times to just about all professionals - they put it down to bad luck! You've...

What's really interesting is that some knew what they were talking about two years ago while others didn't have a clue. Interesting thread from a historical perspective.

Many of my boards have recessed mast tracks - 2009 Is 111, 222, 150 and 2010 Is 131, but if you blow up the side shots of the 2011 Isonics you'll see that the entire deck takes a dramatic dip before...

Remi, you recommended the Is 150 to me back in 2009 and I bought one. What a great board! This thing is fast on all points of sail and very comfortable with big sails. Now that I've spent some...

Here are the boards I'd pick.

IS 147 - 8.6 to 10.8 sq. m.
IS 107 - 6.5 to 8.6 sq. m.
IS 87 - 4.8 to 6.5 sq. m.

What a fun quiver that would be and it would cover just about all...

Good Lord, the deck concaves on the new Isonics are incredibly radical. For the most part the boards seem a little longer too and the weights of the carbon boards are very light.

Now that I've had some time recently on both the Is 131 and 150 i have to confess that I prefer the gybing ability of the Is 150 over the Is 131! That's a big surprise for me since the Is 150 is...

I think SB has a light wind blaster with the IS150! The more I sail this board the more I like it. The JP 154 certainly looks interesting and is definitely worth a look - looks great in the...

I bought a Pan Am 27 years ago so the 10 year argument is more like 27 years. That was a good board then and since boards and sails (according to manufacturers and magazines) get faster and better...

Looks like my Isonic 87 is being revived! That's wonderful - so now I won't have to think about updating. No Isonic 133/131? Marketing, don't we love marketing.

One thing is for sure and that is that the RS:Slalom MKIII isn't slow - 43.69 knots! This was a on a borrowed RS:Slalom MKIII. The sailor obviously bought this sail - he at least liked it. The...
