Join a a very average drone flyer as he tries to capture the crew downwind foiling off Perth. Hugh is currently rehabbing his knee so not allowed to downwind foil, but getting the drone up to film the local crew is at least 10% as good. The bumps are here in WA! 🚨🚨 THE FOIL PROJECT COACHING is starting in October. Find out more here: thefoilproject.com Only a couple days left to get in your sub...

Since then, he has helped pull Doni into this crazy adventure of foiling with him. They are both pushing the limits whether it be trying out crazy small foils, using footstraps, planning and comp...

Sven @sveny_foils has got to be one of the most stoked foilers in WA, he won't miss an opportunity to go out for a foil session and there is never a session where he is not smiling. He has always gone out of his way to find the right kit, pushing brands such as Axis to create products for the bigger riders. It was awesome to talk to Sven about everything that he has done foiling as well as disc...

    There's no doubt open ocean DWing is hardest and purest discipline of foiling. But to claim it's the ultimate...is only an opinion. Bigger boards, slower foils, softer swell, shuttle logistics is not appealing to everyone. I'd rather "point sail" a wingfoil on 45L board and 3m wing in head high breaking waves anyday. Being stoked about your sport is one thing, but "selling idea" because your in bed with brands is another.

    • @The_Foil_Project
      @The_Foil_Project 9 месяцев назад

      Completely agree with what your saying especially around the logistics of the sport. Maybe it would have been better to say the 'ultimate challenge.' Winging waves is next level in so many ways, trouble is finding that ideal wave! Glad to hear your stoking on foiling too!

    Guys I love your podcast!! I have been wondering a lot about the history of the sport, how things got started with Laird Hamilton back in the day with those clunky foils using snowboard boots/bindings, the Kai Lenny video from 2016 and then everything just blew up... how cool would it be if you guys could do a interview with Laird Hamilton and really go deep into how this all got started!!

    • @The_Foil_Project
      @The_Foil_Project 9 месяцев назад

      Thanks that sounds like an amazing idea we will definitely look into that! It would be amazing. If you interested Armie Armstrong gave a pretty interesting run-down of the history of foiling from his perspective, starting when Laird Hamilton released the Ultimate Waterman film of him foiling Raglan, New-Zealand. It is crazy how quickly this sport has grown.

    I'm an old guy. Just turned 77. I'm thinking about a foil drive assist Gen 2 on something about 5', 5'2, 19-20 wide, 70,75 l. I weigh 75 kg. Thinking about lots of foil combinations. I got up on foil in downwind conditions on Maui with a foil drive assist and a very large board and foil. What do you think? About the right combo? Love the podcast. Aloha, Don

    • @The_Foil_Project
      @The_Foil_Project 9 месяцев назад

      Thanks for the support Don! Sounds like a great combo to me. I tried the Gen 2 on a prone board and it has heaps of power, so something around your body weight should work really well downwind. Best of luck!

    Cool episode. I really wish kite foiling would get a look in with the new wing designs. No one seems to make small enough gear for kiting - 550-600 span territory. The axis advance fuses would be perfectly suited to kiting but seems its just not a market any one is paying attention too.
