Carbon vs Aluminium fuselages
I'm interested in getting my first windfoil. I've been told that windfoils are basically following kitefoil developments with a lag of of a couple of seasons. Right now all-carbon windfoils are all the rage. I really like the idea of having as few connections and screws as possible. But apparently single-piece (mast and fuselage) foils were all the rage in kitefoiling a few years ago, yet now everyone is switching to aluminium fuselages (and carbon everything else). Is this true? Coincidentally, the windfoil that is winning most races now has an aluminium fuselage (Starboard). Thanks for any tips.
