Wasn't the mast section of the Fx-1 too stiff to tune the sail adequately for a single hander? Never sailed one seriouly but was is your expierience with it?
Yes, that is my opinion (and another example were using an F18 component on a non F18 design didn't work out). Some consider the Superwing alu mast we have as a noodle but it sails like a dream. Especially when compared to the FX-one setup.
Again, it is in de balancing between the mast and the sailcut. That is the true pathway to success.
