Quiver Choice

Hi Ian

I'm 85 kg and 1.90m, what is the best 3 boards quiver choice for slalom. I will use them for the competition. Currently I use Maui Sails 5.9, 6.6, 7.6, 8,4.

Thanks
Koray

Hi Koray,

If you're selecting a quiver based on typical slalom race / freerace sailing (as compared to say, GPS speed etc) then a good 3 slalom board quiver for your size / sail range will be :

1> iS86 (5.9 / 6.6)
2> iS101 ( 6.6 / 7.6)
3> iS122 (7.6 / 8.4)

3a> could be iS133 if you really wanted to increase low (slalom) wind range and/or margin for racing in "marginal" slalom conditions.

Cheers ~ Ian
