Wow, I've windsurfed and now wingfoiled on that river most of my adult life, and you just made it look like some crazy exotic place I should visit someday. The angles, the lighting, the music. Love it! Oh wait, I only live 4 hours away and can go there every weekend! Boom! Thanks for elevating the froth factor to 11. Just bought a DW SUP foil board and I'm starting the struggle. Can't wait to find that glide.
Great video as always. The most difficult thing must be travel around with board bags 2:23 Cheers for putting up such great content to us who cant travel around easily to these amazing places you are showing us in crazy details
We wish we could have made it this year. Great footage. Love your recap with Dom. It's crazy fun to be part of the Foiling family at this time in our waterman careers. So many options and so little time. The Hatch and Rufus are now a legendary destination to us even though we have only been to Hood two years in a row. 🙂 A Big Winds visit is a must for sure. If you foil and haven't done this trip, do it now. Thank you
I wasn’t there during the windsurf years, the boost and final collapse over high end equipment. Let’s hope, for you guys mostly, that Downwinding doesn’t get too exclusive and go the way windsurfing went. Snowboarding blew up when everyone adopted the 4 hole bolt pattern. As soon as foil companies land on a common pattern for masts, fuses and tail wing, where everyone can mix n match, the better. I’ve got a great $650 setup mast compatible with Slingshot. (Zetti) that’s Axis stab compatible and Slingshot mast comp. But, how much would I want to try say a spitfire or progression foil on my rig…
Maybe include some footage of actually trying to drive your white sprinter van through Hood River to get groceries, or park it... anywhere🤣 You show only the good parts. This place used to be awesome but these days almost anywhere is better.
The video is great but what about the "music" or better the spoken text in german????? that is very strange and disgusting as it referres to a kidnapping which has been very bad... what is tha aim of that?
That Rufus downwinder has some of the best Gorge footage I have ever seen from any windsport!
That drone footage is so good!
That’s Dane wilson’s master work

Yep I agree totally
Still want to see the water shot of that WOTW you caught a few years back!
Mate what a great sound track - I mean “Coasting” from 1977 are you kidding me, where did you find this stuff?
ah stoked you like my taste
Awesome video ! I like the car full of foilers and stuffs on the way back 🫣😂
What is your body weight?
Not much roofing happening at the moment!

There is no such place as Rufus, this is fiction. Please do not look it up on a map if you come here.
