Drone Hydrofoil Edit

Postby kiterdrew » Wed Feb 03, 2016 5:25 am

I wanted to come out with a video that showcased a different side of Hydrofoiling with a kite, that also captured the experience and places it has taken me! I teamed up with Professional Drone Pilot - Tim Johnson to show just how beautiful this sport can be from above. Thanks for checking out Floating Away!

Amazing movie mate! Really captures the feeling of foiling.. And drone work is super good.

who was flying? how far away were they when they were shooting you doing rodeo?
They were flying very low above water. Were they near in the boat?
