"First session with the new 85L Julitta today. Managed to squeeze one in after work before it got dark.
Went out with a Mya 5.0 and a Wahoo 800, mounted on a 95 mast. Already when taxing out on the knees, I could feel it had a good glide. When pumping to get going, it felt a little strange at first. The board cleared the water super easy, but the foil would not really lift.
Turned out that it clears the water at a much lower speed than I have been used to. And I need to give the foil a little more time before pushing up. Which is a good thing 😀
With my 90kg, it was very easy to get going once I adapted. Could have taken a 4.0. And with the Hoki 999, I could probably have gone even smaller on the wing.
This is my main reason for getting the Julitta. Being able to take smaller foils or wings, and still have a massive range.
I was a little in doubt if I should take the 65 or 85. But now I am happy I got the 85. Up on foil, it was not a single time I felt that it was bigger than my 75L 2024 R-board. Really nimble and fun."
