Hi
I would like to ask your opinion about the 2005 90lt falcon. I am 90kg rider, surfing usually in choppy conditions with winds around 18-28knots and want to use it with 6.3-7.0 freerace sails.What fin size is best for these sails?
Thank you

The Board is a total dream to sail. I've still got mine and it's probably still my most used board.
I reckon the real sweet spot with the board is a 7m and 32cm fin.
Here are my results from a nice day sailing it. (Wind 18-23 knots and gusty with Small chop)
It's a true gem to ride and great in the jybe

About Centre, just a little bit back if it's flat. A bit forward if choppy. The track itself is relatively short

Hi, I use this board with 6.7 and 7.2 rs racings, 32cm falcon for well powered 6.7 and 34cm
goldwing with the 7.2. I have tried 28,30& 36cm fins but these are not so good. I am roughly the same weight as you. I think the board feels big for 90L and works well in lighter winds also.

Hi Ian
how did you feel it in choppy conditions? Is it really sensitive in back foot presure?

Hi, board deals with small chop very well, heavy chop not so good . I think the board is sensitive to
back foot pressure , I had some spin out problems when using Naish /Gaastra sails, but with NP it seems ok.
