Hey all,
After debating for years wether to invest in a hydrofoil or not, I finally bought myself one. With the arrival of bigger wings (slower speeds) and more and more hydrofoil wings being used for kiting but also doubling for surfing, I invested in the Slingshot H4 (2019: Space Skate). Being able to be used during kitefoiling, but also surffoiling my next step is to invest in a suitable board for both disciplines. I just want a board that does it all. After reading some reviews, I got a few options:
Slingshot Alien Air ( + Lots of volume for easy paddling, easy to start kitefoiling with - heavy, limitations by such a wide board?)
LF Galaxy (+ Light, great for kitefoiling, could be used for surfing - not that much volume)
Appletree Foil 50 (+ Volume, carbon build, not too big - $$$$)
I really like the appletree, but the price of 900 euro's at least is a bit too steep at the moment. What would you guys choose? Are there options I missed?
Thanks!
