I've researched for my first foil but the amount of different opinions is rather overwhelming !
I have 3 years experience kitesurfing, started with TT and now use surfboards 100%. Mostly in flat water, with a view to get into the surf once more confident.
The idea of learning to foil on a tall mast scares me with the crashes as I know what whiplashes feel like when falling off the surfboard at high speeds...
This is why I like the idea of the Slingshot foil academy and it's short masts to start off with.
I'm aware that it's quite a heavy setup, much like the Cabrinha Double agent which I can get used for a good price (although I've read that it's a dud outdated and slow foil).
If I can upgrade to a carbon foil down the track with the Slingshot board that would be a bonus.
Has anyone tried the Slingshot boards Alien air vs Drwarfcraft and compared the two ?
Any tips appreciated !
