Hey all

Just bought a Fanatic Jag 2019 (108L) and trying to decide what sail to match it with. I'm 70kg with a 36cm Tribal fin.
I plan on taking this board and sail out in 15+ kn, I've been out in 15 knots with an 8.0 sail on a bic techno but worried ill struggle to use it in the 18+kn range with this board...so would a 7.0 be the way to go or just stick with an 8.0 and learn to sail overpowered, cause I don't want to be underpowered in 15 knots either.

Thanks

I think you're onto it, I am way heavier than you and only 10L more board gets me going with a 7.0 in 16-17kn.

on techno i use 7.8 techno sail in every wind up to 30 knots then go down to 6.7 for anything more. i am 60kg for reference.

Loving all the responses thanks guys - will be getting myself a 7.0m sail with confidence now

I have the same board, use Duotone S-Pace 7.3 and 6.6 with 36-34 carbon fins.
Great combo, have used a 7.8 with a 38 fin and that worked as well.
Jags are great boards for slalom blasting and easy to Gybe.

That's an interesting anatomical combination...
More seriously, Id have thought 8m is pushing the limits for the size of board you're talking about
