maybe I will wait a little see what else is out there


3k?! :shock: That's for both the board and foil correct? I hope that's not the price just for the foil.

yep just for the foil, there is however a cheaper version around 2 Gs , with 1 fuselage instead of two, so I heard.

Crikey, that crash was gnarly!

Rumor has it there might be a foil demo organized for race participants at the 2nd Annual Jericho Windsurfing Slalom Races (July 8th)!

Stay tuned for more info...

Not enough wind. I tried but even with an 8.5 it wasn't possible. Maybe during the 3rd race I could have gotten a couple but I'm glad I stayed on my longboard.
