Bought the 2000 MC PS 205V last October. Seller "threw in" the Air Chair. In keeping with this thread, for you Air Chair/Foil folks - What speed do you recommend for learning to ride? I ordered and installed the beginner blade on the foil. Thanks.

Let me say one word........DAMN!!!!! that's nuts!! :eek:

[FrankSchwab]

Hey Newbie -
15 mph is good until you can ride stably with the board on the water.
18 mph is good for initial, short flights.
20 mph is good for learning stability in the air, and your first attempts at jumps off the wake.

Try www.foilfreaks.com for more info, or there is a yahoo Hydrofoil group.
