Small boards

My first lesson was on a huge floaty board and I thought it felt soooooo big when up and foiling. Then I bought a small thin board 58" x 16" x 1" and have only ridden it so far. My question is once you are good and understand the balance of hydrofoiling does the big board still feel big? Id like to ...

Re: harness hook height

Side note... I just tried NP's twisting hook and couldn't believe how much it helped for toeside. I also like seat harnesses and low hook height but for all kiting.

Re: Foil Boards!

Evan that is a cool board, wish it was in English. Are you keeping the curve with fiberglass? How thick was the wood?

That would be a fun board to try.

Re: Show us your stance !

I ride the Aguera foil on his TT board for just about two months now. I usually stand with my rear foot right over the mast. After our last conversation I moved my strap back one hole. I'm still over the foil but a quarter of my foot is over the back edge. I couldn't believe how different it was. I ...

Re: Foil Boards!

I want to bring the board question back up... I've been riding an Aguera TTF board, I don't have exact measurements but it's small and thin. I can get up and ride easy enough but jibes are very difficult. I've been trying to touch down when switching feet but it's supper easy to put too much pressur...

Alex Aguera using SUP foil to kite, looks slow compared to his kite foil.

Re: Board question: area vs volume

Yea so with the 54" Dwarfcraft you would not be able to do that. The track and strap holes go from right behind the mast to WAY behind the mast.

Re: Board question: area vs volume

Are people using the DC with other foils? I was talking with a beginner using the DC on the beach the other day. She had the mast all the way back and the strap all the way forward but her rear foot was still behind the mast. I like to stand right over the mast, but would have a hard time doing that...

Re: New Slingshot Foil Products

I was looking at the 54" Dwarfcraft on the beach today... Yes it is different than the one on the video. The one on the beach had a flat bottom, the only one on the video has a v center. It seamed short and narrow but very thick, very heavy too, but that was probably the foil. Plus the person who ha...
