I have the above combination and had 4 sessions supfoiling on it.
I already hurt my ribs
The windy season has started here so I want to try windsurfing with it.

It will be strappless , the JP Foil board has has footstrap inserts but they are on centerline of the board.
Good thing for me, I hurt my foot a month ago windsurfing.
I will only go in light winds with a 5.3 Simmer blacktip, when it is really windy I will go windsurfing.
The mastfoot goes in the second hole from the front, t he first is the vent hole.
So there is not much standing space...
Should put the foil as much to the back as possible for my first try?
I will be wearing a full wetsuit, booties and an impact vest and go to a lake for my first try...
And I will uphaul my sail, the board is 115 liter.
Tips or thoughts anyone?

I windfoil a SUP foilboard too. Mine is 7'1 and I use the same Neil Pryde Large wing.

Put the mast in the back of the tracks to make it beginner friendly, not just for riding, but for uphualing too.

These are nothing like foiling a regular windsurfer, because the tracks are so extremely far forward for SUP use, they can be tricking windfoiling.

They are very responsive with the tracks so far forward. It also makes the board trickier to uphaul. Wanting to spin as the sail is pulled out the water, if the foil is forward in the tracks.

So, just put it in the back, then bump it forward 1" at a time, if you think it's too tame.

The fun part about a board like this, is being able to pump (like you do when SUP foiling) it airborne. Also pump it on a wave. You can ride slow and surf it.

Oh, no straps. You need to be able to move your feet around and surf it.

Thanks for the tips.
Yeah we don't want to race, just play around!

It is a long time ago that I uphauled a sail , didn't realize that the position of the foil could make it more difficult to uphaul.

How much wind would I (85kg/180lbs) and my daughter (60kg/133lbs) need with a 4,7 or 5,3 wave sail?

After some practise about 10 knots for you for the 4.7 i think, but I haven't tried your foil.

i never had trouble uphauling because of the foils position btw, i think the trouble is more due to technique issues, having the front foot too far forward when uphauling.

I'm finding the JP foil 7' a great choice for sup foiling , windsurf foiling and wing foiling. For windsurf foiling I initially had the foil a bit too far forward making it ultra sensitive and twitchy but with the foil a bit more back now feels very balanced and stable. Pumping onto a foil is also even easier. Using mainly 5,3 and 6m sails.

At the moment I am mainly using the Starboard Ocean 2000 and Starboard 1700 wings with the 65cm mast and surf fuselage. I want to get some sessions on the NP L foil as visually it is quite different from the Starboards wings which have a much thinner profile (ie thinner leading edge).

The 2020 glide wind seems to come with an 80 Mast and the glide surf with a 70 Mast.

We are switching to Axis foils and my wife, a good wavesailor wants to give windfoiling a try on our JP 7'0 .
I want to make it as easy and painless as possible for her...

Should we get her on the biggest front foil, the biggest rear foil, the longest fuse and a short mast?

We were tired of waiting for the NP Glide XL . We mostly sup surf our foils and love the Axis S1020 S1000 and s900.
Being able to chose mast and fuse length is also a big plus.

Should I get a 100 cm (40') Fuselage for learning to windfoil?

It looks like NP has the extralarge Glide on their website. Does anyone know the surface area of this 100 cm wing? Did anyone try for windsurf foiling the XL glide? It looks like 85 cm NP mast could be adapted for this wing.

Apparently next years Glide Wind will come with the longer mast. That's worth waiting for me.

What masts and wings are they coming with?
