Option 1: Change the front wing
The maneuverability of a foil is closely correlated with the wingspan and shape of the front fin. So the first step is to Reducethe surface area of the front fin. You’ll lose stability, but you’ll turn much more easily.
The shape of your front fin will also change the stability of your foil. A flatter, high-aspect ratio fin (S-Foil HA Ratio fin) provides more stability but reduces maneuverability. With an equal wingspan, for more manoeuvrability it is better to go for a stockier, slightly curved fin with low aspect ratio (Classic S-Foil fins). Indeed, the Classic fins are naturally more manoeuvrable because of their shape. The HA fins, on the other hand, focus on efficiency and therefore require more experience to control them and benefit from superb maneuverability.
