Wing Foil Surf Heaven in Hawaii

Summertime test runs on the final version of the new Cabrinha H series foils we’ve been working on for the past year. Super stoked with how these have been feeling and in love with the added glide and speed a design like this gives you. Can’t wait to test the top end of these things as we start heading into Winter!
For those wondering, I'm riding the 4’6 Autopilot, H800 wing + the 80cm Carbon mast which has become my go to setup in most conditions unless the waves are really slow. Check out more info on the gear I'm riding at www.cabrinha.com

25 years of windsurfing, then some kiting, then left the water completely the last 10 years for mountain biking and gravel riding......This is the first time I'm seriously thinking about returning to the blue.....awesome video !

[@KeahideAboitiz1]

Haha, great to hear and definitely recommend as there's some similarities to windsurfing in terms of handling the wing. It's still a bit of a process to learn if you don't have the foil experience, but I'm sure you'll be addicted like everyone else if you spend the time getting into it! Opens up a whole new world of fun in average waves and bumps

[@peteskyrunner4845]

Man what a beautiful video. Everything from the filming , the surfing, to the music. Different technology coming together (plus the creators) to make a very pleasing video. The drone flying is smooth as butter and the guy on the board really knows how to use the energy of the wind and sea to do what he wants with it. Love it!

Thankyou and stoked you like it! Always loved trying to minimize the pumping as much as possible and just let it flow

[@2eggsnbacon]

This is an unbelievably good video. Your balance and control make it look so easy! I used to windsurf, and then got into sailing catamarans and yachts. I am now going to take up wingfoiling - largely because of your video. I have never actually seen anyone wingfoiling and had only seen a short clip on Tiktok of someone wingfoiling - and then found your video. Wow!

[@KeahideAboitiz1]

Thanks mate, appreciate the positive comments. Although its still a bit of a learning process, with the sailing and windsurfing background I'm sure you can figure it out. Biggest thing that would help would be learning to foil behind a small boat or jetski or an efoil, then bringing in the wing. Such an amazing feeling riding waves and swells like this once you figure it out

[@ttb1513]

@@KeahideAboitiz1Can you describe how much energy/force you get from the swells? Very cool.

[@makalii]

Like how you can keep your wing behind you and out of your way. Skills man.

[@KeahideAboitiz1]

Definitely takes some micro-adjustments but having a wing that flies well off the front handle helps a lot. Having a stiff handle like the one on the Mantis makes a big difference for me

[@kshred3043]

@@KeahideAboitiz1 Yes, but (dumb newbie question) how do you keep it more or less behind you all the time regardless of your heading ? Seems that you must be foiling a lot faster that the true wind so that your apparent wind is always more or less coming from in front of you..... ?

[@KeahideAboitiz1]

@@kshred3043 The main thing that helps is the wind direction as this particular spot is side offshore wind so you are always going slightly into the wind whenever on a wave. In my opinion this is the best direction for wing foiling as it keeps the waves smoother and the wing naturally wants to sit on the best angle. You're also right that I start generating apparent wind especially as the wind can be super up and down here so in the light patches I can ride with it behind me. The Mantis is also a great wing for this as its quite stable on a wave and the stiff front handle also heps a lot with the micro adjustments to keep it flying on the right angle

[@KeahideAboitiz1]

Thanks mate, this spot is definitely a little tricky for wind as its quite up and down, but the gusts are pretty strong so as long as I time those, I can stay up through the lulls. I like to stand on my board underwater and then pump the wing and board until I get up. Works fine as long as you're powered enough. I'll see if I can post a clip on my instagram sometime soon.

[@EverybodyEditsHacks]

These look incredibly fun! Been a dream of mine to own one, but I have a couple questions. I read that you need a powered Foil Board if you are using it in a lake or flat water and don't have a wave or wing or some sort of thrust keeping you up. BUT these seem to be 3-4x the cost of non-powered ones, and I feel like I have seen people just pumping the board to stay up. Is this possible with a bigger foil or something? I'd love to buy a cheaper unpowered one to use in a lake

[@CBlargh]

You need either a wing or waves or a motor. You can't just jump on it and make it go. He's using the wind to head out and then surfing back in so he can stay up as long as he wants to. It took me a while to figure out what he was doing! It's very cool technology.

[@KeahideAboitiz1]

CB nailed it. You need one of those to keep it going. Wing foiling is definitely the cheaper option and something you can do on a lake as long as you have some wind and not too much in the way of obstructions for the wind upwind. Depending on where you live, check if there's someone that does lessons. If you learn the foil behind the boat or doing an efoil lesson first, you can figure it all out with the wing with a little practice. Its a little bit of a process learning, but totally worth it!

[@Carfree-Cities]

Hypnotic!

[@robertstenn1350]

That was some graceful riding, really mesmerizing. Am I wrong or was it fairly shallow where you were riding?

The water clarity definitely makes it look shallower then it is. Although there is one section where you can hit on low tide, its pretty easy to avoid and you can still go over it if you ride a little higher on the foil. I actually just hit for the first time a couple weeks ago after all my time out there 😂
