Mine has not been modified and does not really seem to need it. Steady wind was only about 12-20, but some gusts up to 30. I used the full sail pretty much the whole time.

I don't know how much wind, but I see no wave! the video was in the lagoon or repaired in the Bay close?
Real waves are another thing, my TI undergoes major twists and steep waves, I have unplugged (and lost) the HOBIE branded hard badges under the handles of the AMAS.
to tackle the waves should reinforce elastic attacks between AMAS and AKAS ... .. .in my Tandem PAPAYA.
... .. .in a ADVENTURE island??... ... I wouldn't know.
. strong winds? roll ( furling) the sail! and. .. move the weights to counterbalance.
