If you can get on a plane then you should be able to go at least a bit upwind. On my FT138 54/9.5 but only 80Kg I'm already flying in 10-15 kts, don't even have to bother with pumping.
- are you only rying to point upwind after being well established on a plane? - when trying to point are you just pressing down the windward rail (this you should NOT do instead, pull fornt foot towards you and tilt board a bit leeward and lear toward to front of the board (in your harness) and weigh those lines!) - I think you might be sheeting in too early and too hard killing all power (and spinnig out/dropping off a plane) - you might consider placing you MF further forward to conteract turing upwind (speed setup comes after control) |
