How to Build a Hydrofoil (Part 2)

[@yves-mariechene3778]

Nice build! I'd love to see it in action! What is your fuselage made out of? Is it aluminum? I don't think commercial foils have hollow fuselages, I'm really interested in knowing how yours performs! Cheers from France! 🇫🇷 🤙

What is the measurement on the boards ? And stuff ima gonna have my dad help me make one cause they are really expensive to buy haha and ima make one haha

[@outtheback6550]

The board is made from 20mm ply and is 400mm wide by 1.2m long

Out The Back does it float ?

[@outtheback6550]

@@Peoljaeyar yes the board does float

Did it actually work? If so you should have included a video of you riding the board.

[@outtheback6550]

yeah it did work, and yeah we should do a video on it

@@outtheback6550 Interesting. Did you use it with a kite? Or did you get pulled by a boat? How well did it work? I'm building a wooden foil myself to go windsurfing with. No offense but i've never seen a foil of such poor building quality as yours. That might seem like an insult, but actually i think you've done something really interesting and usefull here. It can encourage a lot of people to build foils themselves if yours actually worked. I'm taking a lot of care to get the exact profile right and it might not even be necessary.... Anyways, cool video, but really missing the performance on the water.
