Serenity in less than 6 knots wind - Page 3

Hi Roger,

Thanks for your suggestions above. Until I actually take delivery of the board (estimated in a March/April timeframe), I'm not going to get too anxious about the situation. Maybe the fit will be perfect without any modification needed at all. That's what I'm hoping for, but I'll keep your suggestions in mind if the outcome is not ideal.

Um...like great! It is really something to see Serenity in those videos. Question though. The specs quote a sail range from 5m, so in what conditions would sub-6.5m sails be useable and fun?

Philip,

I've let a pal test ride the Serenity + 40 cm fin + 6.0 slalom sail in 10-15 knots of wind. He was happy and quite impressed by the speed he can reach with that combo. Since he doesn't want to get a sail larger than 6.0 with his small slalom board, the Serenity could be an excellent and fun alternative board for non-planing days with his small sail.

Cheers !

JM
