I apologize in advance for this long post, but I felt there was a need to shed more light into the topic, so here goes: I agree, I too did not face my Y-foil...
No dispute about the importance of facing/chacing. JUST with the Y- Foil you need to be really carefull about how you do it. If you use a bit too much pressure...

If you have rolf vector pros you might need to service the rear hub. It needs to be taken apart and cleaned then relubed. It sounds crazy but I swore my bottom...

Hi, Kelley. Not sure about Question #1. With regards to Question #2: It is a common misconception that "straight-bladed" forks do not have rake. The shape of...
I'm pretty sure the threadless forks on the later y-foils are 1"... I've changed the stem on mine and had to use the spacer. (which is for the 1" forks)......
