Hey Crew, ive got an old Speed SS125L (295cm x 62cm circa '88)with large adjustable mastrack. Rearmost setting is 1500mm from tail. Looking to use Ezzy 8m Cheetah on it. Any advice on mastrack position?

Im keen for some Retro Rippin.

FAN ON!! i need to hit the water.

I have an 8m cheetah that I use on a mistral one design. Seems to work okay- I have not used it enough to be more specific than that. The foot of the cheetah seems to be cut bit lower than a lot of other "freeride sails". My suggestion would be put mast track right at the back.

I use a 8.5 Koncept on a Mistral Olympic One design with no issues. Go for it
