Race Drone filming Racefoil on Fuerteventura

Postby gmb13 » Fri Aug 30, 2019 5:43 pm

A couple of weeks ago I got to work with some amazing race drone flyers/videographers Nilsen Clif and Red's Bni. We got some amazing footage of me training on my racing gear. Check out how sick my custom colors look on R1v3.

Board: Groove Radical V2
Kite: R1v3 11m on 10m lines
Foil: Chubanga V2

Nope. That is normal speed.

I cannot see the video. Maybe it is some flaw in the forum software, maybe it is facebook doing something crazy. I just get to see this: Cannot load Facebook SDK. Disable any adblocker or tracking protection and try again.

Can you post another source?

Strange. I can see it fine. Maybe you need a FB account to see it? But the video is public as far as I know.

If it does not work the instagram version is here

Cool!

Also a nice study of high speed foil control in ocean conditions. Its quite different to blast in this and in flat water...

Instagram worked. Thanks. (Though I would really have liked a non Facebook Inc. related link.)

Very nice drone flying skills! And, obviously, excellent foil flying skills!
At one point the drone seems to be really close to you. Was it? Were you not afraid to hit it or be hit?

Will be uploading the 4k version to my youtube channel sometime soon.

At some points the drone as only about a 1m from me. The jump was super close.

For those with eagle eyes you should be able to spot where the drone actually bounces off a wave just before I enter my first gybe.
