Bonjour,
J'aimerais avoir quelques retours sur la Mistral AB Slalom 91L de 2015.
Perfs, confort, départ planning, aileron conseillé, etc...

Merci d'avance

Hello c'est un peu moins confortable que ton ancienne ab.
Elle est légèrement plus rapide.. La construction est plus béton que les anciennes générations..
Donc plus lourde . La carène est plus travaille au niveau des concaves pour plus de facilité dans le clapot. Bref acheté la et tu me la revendra dans quelques temps

Hi,
I have been using it since 2014. A lovely board and a true pleasure to use.
It's a bit smallish (57 wide) compared to other boards, but can still go very well with a powered up 7.0. It seems to have the same huge sail size range as the other m° boards (in my case, the SL112 is a pleasure to use even with a 6.3, the SL137 loves a 7.7). I use it with 6.3 and 7.0 (I don't need smaller sails here) but I think it can hold easily smaller sails down to 5.0.
It is extremely easy to control even in nasty chop.
Weight is not a problem as it's a small board, I think it's around 6.0 kg; construction is super tough which is 100% OK with such a small board (in case, one could consider the larger boards as a bit 'overbuilt', but not this one). With the SL112 (probably close to 7.0 kg) and SL137 (probably around 8.0), I discovered that weight really does not matter, as long as the shape is good and stiffness OK; with the SL91 there is not even this concern.
I thing I am going to keep my set of m° boards for the 4th season; still in perfect shape and not easy to replace if one likes the feel.
As for the fin. The best option is a Chris Lockwood designed one. You can check the Tribal Windsurfing website for a G-10 Powermax in 28 to 32 (according to the sail size you will use); or look for a custom carbon Lockwood SL2 (in 30 cms is the best choice for 6.3 - 7.0, but ... good luck!!!); or wait until October, when Tribal Windsurfing will release a range of Lockwood designed carbon fins made in Europe. In such small sizes, and due to the peculiar way those designs work (relying much more on shape than construction), G-10 should deliver as good performances as carbon, so the Powermax definitely is an option.
In this case (board that will be used in lots of wind) you can also try different designs. I had a fairly good experience with a Tectonics Fury 32; and, in really heavy conditions, with a Vector carbon Rockit 31. But I strongly advise you to look for the Lockwood designs as they complete the board perfectly.
