Fanatic Gecko 110 liter | Duotone Superstar Stargazer Edition

Описание: My first ride on the Fanatic Gecko 110 liter was a great experience.
"The Gecko is a freeride board with a big bandwidth in terms of range of use or required riding skills. Since 2013, the name Gecko stands for our freeride board concept with the guarantee to improve. The rather thin and wide shape has been subtly adapted over the years. Its volume is perfectly distributed for an amazingly stable and at the same time very sportive ride." (Fanatic Homepage)
I can underline this description. From the first minute, I felt comfortable on this board. In the video you see very gusty conditions (22 - 30 kts).
Combined with the DUOTONE Superstar Stargazer Edition 4.5, I was a little bit overpowered. However with this setup, I was able to break my speed record. I started windsurfing 2.5 years ago with the age of 46. I never thought to increase so rapidly.
The DUOTONE Superstar Stargazer Edition ist a very light sail (4 battens), that is very easy to handle. It reacts very directly an generates instant forward draft.
With a 110 liter board it is still possible to make an uphaul start (considering my weigh of 70 kg). However, in choppy or wavy conditions, I could not manage it. Therefore be sure you can waterstart safely and confidentially.
