Hi. I have a 2020 Fanatic Blast 130L and I'm thinking of upgrading to the Duotone Blast 117 SLS as I think it will be better for choppy. I will use three sails with this board: 5.7m, 6.6m and 7.4m. How do you feel about the change? Is it too radical?Thanks. The small board I have is a Fanatic Freewave 105L.
Hi there, Hmm 7.4 is probably better with the 130, it's not a very wide board. The 117 is best with 5.7/6.6 sizes, 130 best with 6.6 and 7.4 - how often do u use the 5.7?
craig Hi, Craig. In the website I read that the max. sail for the Blast 117 is 8,3. I use the 5,7 a lot.
yes, max size it will still work - but if you want to know the best sizes, then those are as per above. If you use the 5.7 a lot, then yes, the 117 is the better choice. Plus if you are riding a FreeWave 105, then you can handle a smaller board.
