Has their forefoot always been so directly radius curved?

Always was well curved but I didn't think it was a direct radius like that, taking lessons from local Starlings?

Gybe behaviour is different in all the recent vids of Prada

Boards staying in the water longer and turning through a much tighter angle And then bearing away to their proper course, the movements now look just what cost in the ineos VMG downwind In the Christmas cup

Or could they be testing their higher range foils or operating with less angle and less lift and running into some issues?

Not sure the link works but it's Vittorio D'Alberta's FB profile:

^ Thank you.

So is he expecting clear screens (Parabrezza) to be installed (i.e. in the recess/rabbet shown on the port side) to deflect wind up and over each of the 2 crew pits? Just so long as no one is 'under it' right?

Funny because today watching Justin Mitchell's last video I though that LR sides seemed a little higher.. but then I said nah Zaal, it's just your imagination. However, no backstays, black rudder and - maybe again - a slightly different bow, edgier 

Edit: not so sure about the bow
