What are the things on your side when on the foil is that you're up very high and have a commanding view of everything going on around you. That being said, when foolish beginners paddle in right in front of you, they are taking their life in their hands.
What is the foiling etiquette like here? This dude straight dropped in on all types of people and foiled above riders where if he fell would put the foil in harms way of everyone on the inside. Seems ludicrous. As a foiler, this kills me that we are glamorizing this behaviour in a youtube video. As a fellow foil lover - ride strictly on the shoulder! Or better yet, at breaks where you can't actually surf.
Yes I feel it does look pretty sus to be foiling through a crowded line up like this. All it takes is one cowboy to seriously injure someone and there will be NO FOILING signs up, which of course will spoil it all for everyone.
I love foiling and enjoy the content but man I get sweaty palms watching all this foiling through crowded line ups.
Perfect lines. Lots of people all seeming to get along. Cheers
The crew on surf skis and SUP's would be relieved. Now the jealousy over who can catch waves the easiest is deflected from them. Enjoy the ocean.
That's a bit dangerous surfing through crowded line ups, accident waiting to happen.

Couldn’t agree more. One incident and we’ll be hated.
