Kai Lenny & Robby Naish on the Foil Revolution | In the Zone | Outside Watch

[@dylanstarratt6137]

The joy in these sports is found in the learning curve, the sweet spot. Too easy is meaningless. But expanding, overcoming fear, or pushing one's envelope, in a given a set of conditions, is what the sport really is, and that, has a spiritual quality...

[@kaleltheubermensch]

very eloquently said

[@Salahdin_216]

The soul of the surf is the contact with the skin of the wave.

[@ezvibe8310]

The sensation of flying above the water on a foil is amazing. Additionally, as the team rider mentioned, the foil opens up places and conditions that were previously not fun to ride due to the chop or light winds.

@Roland Arjun thanks for your reply. I got to the site thru google and Im waiting for the hacking stuff atm. Looks like it's gonna take quite some time so I will reply here later with my results.

LOVE iT!!!! Also got one now here in Zell am See, Austria and it's simply AMAZING!!! :)) SURF ON in a totally NEW DIMENSION!

[@johnsumner6185]

I got 'stoked' by just watching!

[@chir0pter]

This looks amazing. You could cover serious distance with ease given steady wind. I suppose there's a reason all the America's Cup boats are foil boats now! Amazing that such a revolutionary innovation was still to be found in the ancient technologies of sailing and surfing.

[@whatcher8151]

As long as your hands and arms hold out.

[@michaellausser]

What very perfect description of the feeling when you go foil.... The 3-4 days flying effect after a 1 hour Session is Something i never ever had before 🤙

[@davart311]

I see people foiling just for 30 minutes at the time then get bored and back to shore but real windsurfs stay out . The feeling of the board slicing and sliding the water is unmatchable

[@r0cketplumber]

I'm a total landlubber, but the high L/D of the foils obviously is a huge plus- there are lots more small waves than big ones. Too freaking cool!

[@miyaoberman3755]

Hello from Yerevan!

[@gusthunter4181]

awsome, totally awsome!

[@proteus1]

I still have my parter lynn foil. Never wears out. I have my old windtech. Long before n Mash. I was the with the very few in my country doing kite boarding before mash.

[@landsurfmarin]

Amazing tech and talent.

[@MikeMPharmaCyclist]

@fassenkugel so if giant hydrofoils have been used on boats for decades the tech isn't amazing? Lol.

[@huberthubert860]

The Advantage is, that you can surf smaller Waves and kite in less wind? But it is a little bit like vapourised smoking or electric grill but barbecue?

[@mag9ca]

Damn, to be a ballsy 20 something again, give me a foiling surfboard or a wing suit.

[@felixbrandau4751]

Maybe foiling stays but I don’t for a long time while I am riding these ^^

[@hughdunbar9823]

He's right, it's like the best powder day ever

[@madsteeez]

well... having done both quite a bit, i would say the best powder day ever is definitely more fun than your average foil session.

[@hughdunbar9823]

Summary of comments here "If I don't think it looks fun, YOU can't think it's fun either!"

[@bernardkriel1]

ive never had a new kite....all my kites are 3rd hand..waiting to pop or leak

[@jonathankerner2094]

A question: I haven't tried kiting because my location does not have the beach space for launching, or the necessary wind very often. Now these wings seem to need less wind, and are hand held. So why can't we make smaller kites (the size of a wing 3-5 m) and short lines? Then, we'd get more power by being maybe 20 feet up with the kite, but without the tremendous (dangerous) lift or long, long lines. Why not? Kind of like a trainer kite?

[@MikeMPharmaCyclist]

Not sure what you want... Small kites from 4 to 5m surface area already exist and are very common. You can find a 5m Cabrinha Apollo brand new right now for 250 bucks, a great deal. I don't think I need to tell you how you could shorten existing lines to whatever length you wanted... Lol. The problem is the wind gradient, part of why kites generate so much power (which is usually desirable unless you have great high wind always) is because they are up so high in the less obstructed, more powerful wind. On light wind days you rig longer lines to eek out more power by getting the kite up higher.

[@greensocks4507]

You pronounce your surname 'Nash" Interesting. I'm a surfer too in Western Australia , Jamie Naish. The Naish over here is Naish like Nation , without the 'in' at the end . Nice vid.

[@harryo6126]

that surfboard at the end of the video, does that have a motor on the foil,?

[@a4i.z3n]

no

[@MrStubbs8157]

It is like snowboarding on the slopes vs going deep powder, I guess :)

[@Dantanalicious]

I grew up skiing, racing, etc. since 3 years old. I would trade that in for the same in windsurfing any day! I’ve been windsurfing 30+ years. The stoke factor and fun factor are much greater, will start foiling this summer! Get out there and do it!

[@Hammerrrrtime]

For the largee boards they have enough buoyancy to allow a restart on just board then rise out on foil.

I agree with you 110%

[@whatcher8151]

Just get a bigger kite and put it on a lawn chair with a board on the bottom. Then heliumize the kite for a trek.

[@petericeman100]

I am stoked for these guys but collisions with marine life would be a factor.

[@woody1380]

Redbox why do you think it more likely than boats or boards with dagger boards and fins in the water?

[@starchaser28]

Happens with speedboats, ships, propellers, etc.

[@woody1380]

Redbox what makes it a "fad" ? I'm guessing fish will just get out of the way having sensed the foil coming like they would if it was a predator (or not and get eaten) For the relatively small numbers of surfers in the world occasionally hitting a fish I don't think it's a major concern for conservation. There are bigger issues and things killing sealife

Drago OH yeah u feel, and its the most important feeling of windsurfing, called "speed"

[@avsachs]

if hit a person, animal; slice n' dice?

[@DidBer]

avsachs i typed that years ago on fb. Never got any answer from the protagonists... just think of sea turtles, they are smart and fast but not always that much. With boards you often come to close contact when in their areas. What about mid water foil coming to them, how do they react espacially when breaching for air. I wld defenitely not like to experience that...
