With twintip it seems clear to me:
Freestyle: unhooked
Freeride: weekend-hobby-cruisers
But what does it mean in foiling?
Freeride: same?
Freestyle: strapless tricks?
Difference freeride freestyle in foiling?

Re: Difference freeride freestyle in foiling?
2 types of freestyle in hydrofoil : strapless and bigair
Stéphane goffinet in France IS a Monster in strapless foil freestyle https://m.facebook.com/story.php?story_ ... =634739270
I prefer bigair (i don't have flatspot at Home)

Re: Difference freeride freestyle in foiling?
You must be a twin tipper
and you can only compare a TT kiteboard to another TT support (I can only think of wakeboarding).Kite foiling is and should only be compared to kite surf, strapped or strapless. Wave, freestyle or freeride/no style.

Hey, Navy. You need to hang out with some different TT riders if you think hooked-in = "weekend-hobby-cruisers"!!!
