Re: The future of foiling

Last summer after I got my efoil going I never pumped any kites till late fall with strong wind. The freedom to go when you want and know its going to be a good ride is priceless. We get 30-40 days a year when it blows 15-20 knots; causes some nice wind swell. Before the creation of the Efoil, I wou...

Re: The future of foiling

So cool to see the efoil setups making no wind days fun again. The $ spent on efoiling is great value for me compared to all the kites I have. Flat water cruising is not boring for me yet. When I started kiting after windsurfing I never went back. Lets see how efoiling plays out for us ;)

Re: The future of foiling

I am full into efoiling now too. Anytime anywhere is such a change from always waiting for wind and the frustration. Mind you I windsurfed from 1982 to 2000 and then kited from then till now so its kinda time for a change for me. I still never get tired of good jumping days on a TT though

Re: How many sessions to replace a kite

Its not so much the sessions but how long it is in the sun. Flapping on the beach in the tropics will trash it fast. Pump it ride it pack it.

Re: Kiteboarding RIP ?

Despite the legal status they are being used in public right in front of coastguard boats who seem to turn a blind eye. The rules are being changed to allow certain shrowded props or jet type drives soon along with safety leash power cut.

Re: Kiteboarding RIP ?

Windurfing then kitesurfing are not rip for sure . Winging growing for sure. But efoiling will outpace this. Its just more user friendly and no worry about the fucking wind not being any good. The windsport companies will need to adapt... Lets see how it goes.
