After 6 months experience with the S1 Alloy Package system I'm beginning to realize how special and well thought out this system is. As a beginner, I have found that the hype is true. You'll find out that the foils (I have 3) and the fuselage length will actually help you get up and going toward learning this difficult sport. I took a spill (and you will too) and landed on the tip of the foil (hopefully you won't). I now appreciate the square down turned tips. On foil it's steady. Described as "self correcting" on breaching is a true statement. I wouldn't consider it a beginner setup that you'd grow out of quickly. It mostly holds your hand till you can learn. When you're ready to demand more, it delivers. It can go fast and it can turn sharply. It performs, without surprises. For the price of entry into an expensive sport, and the fairly priced accessories, and excellent build quality, AND the ability to add the more advanced foils in the Armstrong line up, make this a worthy consideration.Maybe even a "no brainer". I'm glad I bought the S1 and finally got into learning this insane sport.
