I bought 2 wings that were fibre glassed. Very light and very good value. I strapped them to a DIY alu mast and fuselage and will try this weekend.
Very quick to respond to emails.
Is there anyone who has experience with the Clearwater Creations 2016 foil. I bought some wings from James for my DIY aly mast and fuselage.
Would be nice to know whether someone is kiting and using this foil. James Fiore has some videos on You Tube
I have a NJS SF6 raceboard in the shed that I do not use anymore. Would it be ok to epoxy two sliders in and use this as an hydrofoil board. Length is 169 width 70cm and of course nice and meaty thick. the rails are pretty sharp and the board has a reasonable front rocker but the back is pretty flat...
How big is hydrofoiling. Not really that big. Where I kite there are only a few. I think the cost and the very steep learning curve is putting people off. I have tried to make a DIY twin tip bi directional hydrofoil. I beefed up my twin tip with a bit of carbon and drilled 4 holes. Made a strut (mas...

I just want to be safe and put the sliders to give me enough adjustment forward and backwards for any type of wings I will...
I am trying to find out where to insert the fin boxes (sliders) 30 cm long on my Paulownia boad. The dimensions of the board are 150 x 52 cm. I have a moderate amount of rocker starting at 1m from the back of the board. My plate holes are 165 x 90 mm so there is a good amount of adjustment. I also w...
