Hi, There is no possibility of vacuum drag for a few reasons: the EVA plug fits at the same level as the board, leaving insufficient space to create a vacuum effect. Additionally, the slots on the deck go through the carbon plate, meaning there is no enclosed space between the plug and the deck, so vacuum formation is not possible. Many tests confirm this. 😉
Some great new features in there Ollie. Nice one. Look forward to trying one of these to see how the new features improve performance.
Nice board, i will buy
Wonder wy you put that handle on the bottom ? it scraps the hidrodynamics.
Not really noticeable. But that plug idea is surely gunna create a vacuum drag before takeoff 🛫
Hi Pierre,
The handle is made from flat webbing, and there is no negative effect on hydrodynamics. 🤙🏽

@@StarboardFoilboard Thanks, nice
Can you add a foil drive to this?
No, but you can attach a tolling motor.
Make Foil drive friendly !
