Hi Patrick, first of all many thanks for the support with the quiver and hope you enjoy the new FW TXT! great board! Well, as we know South of France can be very windy (I used to live in Hyeres many years ago), and you are pretty light - so I guess your smallest board needs to be the Grip 68 and I would get the 2021 model with the new shape. Then for the medium/middle board, I would actually say either the Mamba 78 or Grip 82. Depends a little on the sail sizes you plan to use on that?
Question - when do you jump from 68 to bigger boards- which sails would you use with:
Grip 68
Medium size 78/82
FreeWave 95 2021
I'd actually tend to go for a 82 Grip as it has probably the biggest range and the jump from FW 95 is not as big as from 95 to 78 or 75? And you may want to ride waves in really lighter winds, but still need a 100% waveboard like the 82 - there the 75 would be too small? I think you can ride the 68 Grip easily from 3.3-4.5 or even 4.7, Grip 82 from 4.2-5.3 and the FreeWave 4.7 to 6.0?
