Land-based finish is a crazy b..... The race is decided in the water, not on dry land.

What brand is that travel bag pls? The rest of the vid was great too ;)

Great video. Great insight. Great clips. Great interviews.

All da RIPPAHZZZZZZZZ!!!!!!!!!!

I can’t believe you went to SanO on a Saturday. I swear, I’ve turned back two times, back to San Diego.

Great Review Fellas! Definitely keen to hear how the newbies go on it

Top de mais irmao , meu sinho pescar no mar , eu pesco de mergulho nas aguas doces do Amazonas. Parabens 🤝

2 out of 2 for Mr Ku 👌

What's the name of the songs? I can't shazam them and they're amazing!

Balls of steel in these parts

B A L L S

How much more forgiving when hitting White water is this new code mid aspect compared to code s

Maşallah

How flat is the board forward of the tracks? Can you mount a FD gen2 with the Max power battery (long nose cone) without having to add any foam under the nose cone? And how’s FD remote signal with this construction?

Price is only $5 less than ordering from Australia 🤷

Lift 170

I know that place!

Huge deal! Would be sick to get the cypher, sultan shapes under some feet in the states

Hi @joshku, are you coming to Europe?

Such an epic collaboration! Ripping bro!

Amazing just ordered one! What’s the specs on the foil setup? Mast/fuse/front and stab?

Noice!!! Count me in. Just not with a yellow bottom! lol I'm in San Diego.

Thank you Josh 🙏

Awesome!!

Great news

Only reason i didn't buy one was the shipping. I wanted one so bad i was going to fly there to pick it up and bring it back but buying it here will be easier. From someone who doesn't get forced to ride something and say its great i think this is the best design on the market. If i could demo any board this is the one.

Bring It to Europe please 👏

Is there a dealer in Europe?

Living at Lake Hodges (winging), Del Mar River mouth is my closest surf spot, however prone pop-up is still tough for this old man. Good for you Josh on the collaboration.

Looking forward to being able to purchase these boards in the United States with reasonable shipping - awesome progress! Curious your thoughts as a board designer on the various tunnel type designs being used to recess the foil drive units on these style of boards?

Hi Josh. Just saw the video of you and Casey "sup vs foil drive" where you test a bunch of code foils. Just wondering the dimensions of the Kruzer board used in that video. Thanks

Does the foil have a propeller or motor or is it just momentum that powers it ?

Such an interesting view, my legs got tired just watching.

U guys are ballz

I’m just about to buy my first down wind board which I also plan on using as a sup foil board in the waves. I have my eyes on the it dragonfly surf edition. Slightly unsure of which size I should get. What do you guys think? 86kilos I can sup surf sinker boards I prone foil and connect about 5 waves before I tire out. I’m thinking either 110liter at 7’10 or the 120 liter at 8’. What are your thoughts? I’ll probably use it more for winging and sup surfing over down winding anyway. Also how much do you guys weigh and what size boards do you usually go for?

Очень опасно, белые акулы, австралия, очень страшно

I’m 86kg intermediate foiler! Should I go with the 5’4? Feel like I’m between 5’4&5’8. Pumped to test this out! Going to also use FDgen2 on it sometimes. Using Armstrong ha880/980 795Pmast w/ v tail stab. Appreciate any feedback

Zane shot himself in the foot by capturing some awesome tight drone angles, making the bumps bigger and helping Josh edge out the win.

Sick, will finally go do my first downwind with paddle today, thanks Josh for keeping my inspired for the last year to train baby steps 🥳

Zane's turns look more radical. It seems easy and smooth for both of you. So just a little preference for Zane.

I think this one goes to Josh but the swell looked bigger on Josh's run whereas Zane seemed to be using the paddle a little more to stay connected. Or was Zane's drone footage capturing better angles? Zane takes the drone footage for me. Great concept!

I think you take it Josh. Love these videos

Thanks for sharing, love the idea, definitely matches to what people enjoy about dw is the snowboard back country feel. You could do a virtual comp where you get to submit your best 2min section and then score each. I do like the idea of the same conditions because obviously someone at Hood is going to look better. Gain points for linking consecutive bumps, 360 carves, tips out, holding turns to completion, snap cutbacks Lose points for pumping, touchdowns, going straight But, and I say it with all respect - this looked somewhat forced for you guys. Conditions looked tricky, struggle to get a rhythm going, so for me the flow wasn't there. (pro riders, I've come to expect the edited version, so take this as intended - constructive) I guess a good test is that I wouldn't show this to surf mates to impress them. I would show them the Hood river one, with you and Jack, that was really good. Maybe board was too big, making turns look a bit more nursed. Another way of saying this is that if the conditions aren't good, it's hard to make the foiling look smooth. Reminds me of a surf contest in onshore grovel, you can judge it, but its tough to make much of it. On the whole, I really like the idea of this. Maybe an idea is the parawing or efoil for these tricky conditions. That way you ride the best foil and board for the conditions, and don't have to worry about paddle ups. But I like the experimentation. Very cool.

Josh look like he was too scared to drown the drone so Zane made him look better with riskier flying. Or a stitch up 😂

They were some big bumps - not real peaky and makes it hard to surf cause you're going so fast and have to maintain speed to stay with them. Does go to show that as the Cypher is a beginner board it can still take you for a LONG way through your DW journey for sure! Epic Vid Josh!!

For me it was difficult to pick a winner as Zane had the best flow while Josh had the best style. I also like Josh’s line choice at the end - pushing wider on the outside the cutting back to the right through the surf before the river mouth. No question that Zane was the best drone pilot though! 😅

Josh won this one for me. Zane looked to be fighting his foil in turns. Josh was going with the flow and doing what the foil allowed, nothing forced, smooth, graceful surfing.

Loving the new comp format 🤙

Take gps tracker then you know who made the most turns as there track will be longer also average speed and top speeds are fun

For me Zane won. Because all in all he stands smoother on the board, less arm shaking and the turns look a little bit more powerful. But Ku holds the turns a little longer. I like more the wider stance of Ku, but I see him more on a small Prone Board 🤙🙂
