    There is the Wing-In-Ground (WIG) effect, the board essentially flies close to the water surface while supported by a field of high-pressure air beneath it and above the water surface. This creates the impression that it's simply gliding above a cushion of air. Drag is amplified by the posture of Kai standing up and height above the water surface in relationship to reduce the WIG effect , more drag is addes by the foil size. But Kai is ballzy as ever.
    The WIG effect can work for and against you

    • @robinjones7373
      @robinjones7373 2 года назад

      For the wing in ground effect to happen the wing needs to be near the ground or in water the sea floor, so being just below the surface doesn't cause this.

Watching him bouncing off waves & doin' 360s comin' down the face of those waves in Hawaii I thought he was one of the best surfers I've ever seen.

I think I would credit laird with that one, although others did attempt to put a hydrofoil on surfboards in the 60's with limited success. I rode waves (barely) on my aquaskipper hydrofoil which is a human propelled device many years ago. Laird Hamilton is widely considered the person responsible for making hydrofoil surfing a practical reality. Did Australians invent surfing too?
