I have been owning the Dragonfly Surf II 7'4 106L for few months now as my light wind , free ride fun board when I want to use small wings in light wind. With a 4.5m wing and the Code R I can get up at 9-10kt easy even at 92kg.

My main issue arises from when I use it for parawing.
Especially with onshore wind, the chop hitting the side of the board combined with the "tracky" behavior of the board can make using the board quite annoying.
This is something I do NOT experience with the Super K2 6'2" 90L which seems to be less affected by side chop.

Looking for some enlightenment from people who have experienced the same. Thank you

I'm 85kg without gear and ride the Dragonfly V1 7' 19" 100L

Using a high aspect foil and longer mast will help dampen the roll side to side.
The main technique to better control the board is have 70% of my weight on my back foot. Drive with back foot and also bend over a little to keep your weight lower. Also try and stay pointed into the chop until ready to attempt take off. Over time your balance will get better as you learn to bounce around with the board and use the Parawing to keep balance. You can pivot the board pretty quickly off your back foot, think having the board at a 15% nose up angle. This will also help take off faster as you power up the Parawing and transition your weight forward and will create more pop.

I did not experienced the same but from a 6’6 to a 6’2…made my life so much easier. I can now untangle the line that goes under the nose so much easier!! I guess you are probably a way higher level than me and not experiencing this issue? I just realized I did not answer your questions and reply with another question…I should run as a politicien! 😁
