I used to have a F2 Axis 158. Last season I used a Axis 262, which was
much more user friendly for bump & jump sailing. This year I have a JP
265 Freeride (84 liters). I have used it just once, but it was very
comfortable from the get go. Real stable in the jibes and real light. I
am 150 lbs so it may fit your need. The negative about the JP is the
price.
