$2700 is also for both wings. It more like $2000 for the complete foil with just one wing.

I thought Kai Lenny was a Naish Team Rider? Maybe Robby has something to do with this.

I dont get it, 2000 is not expensive but pretty midrange for good foils, at least if you convert the currency directly...
2700 is for one more wing so sounds reasonable for a really good foil (but I dont know if it is....)
And still somewhat less than the racefoils

Super curious about the MFC 1280, esp because it can ride with one wing out.
But 633, IMHO, is quite a bit overhyped. I've been kitefoiling with it for over year 2-3 times a week.
It's good, but it's heavy and not very maneuverable. It's great for bigger waves - 5ft and up, since you can slow it down to go with bigger wave speeds. For most other wave conditions, I switched over to Lift 170 and loving it - more skatey, lighter, more nimble and more durable than 633. Waves smaller than 3ft are Lift 150 for me. It's been more fun than 633.
