light as possible

the carpet looks like the kind of board I am after.I saw a picture of the crazy fly cruiser which is 154 x44 and something called a lite wave wing but I guess am after something that will get me up in next to nothing but still handle a little if that is possible. have you ridden many and how have they compared?

cheers joel

No Experience with the Crazyfly but the Nobile is similar to the Flysurfer Flydoor except the flydoor comes in 3 size options with the biggest being 170x50cm and I believe the Nobile is lighter.

I got the Flydoor XL 170x50 ... had a Spleene Door 154x42 until I broke it :o

The XL is a little heavy, compared to the Door - I think cos it's got a wood core so it's really strong which is important when spending big money on a board! And you're a fat bastard :D although, I'm not the fattest bastard riding a Flydoor!

Personally, I don't notice the weight when it's on my feet either ...

Great board, planes quick and goes upwind well. In light wind, me and the Flydoor + Speed2 19 are now the first out riding - instead of the last.

yeah nah all jokes, I think most of the kitesurfing community want a Speed 3 19m and a door after seeing that video of kiting on glass. Not to hijack poor spires thread but that Nobile Flying Carpet looks the goods.

What do ya need a light wind board for? I can get going on my 6m and an old surfboard in 7 knots and I weigh 140kg. I

Thats great news that means that on the same gear it would be no trouble for me to get going in 3 knots as I only weigh 60kg.

cheers viper see you monday and we can test your theory.

on the whole though thanks to others for your advice.

like I say though if anyone has a light wind board to sell I am interested.
