We've reviewed many foil brands recommended to us by viewers, and have quantitatively assessed the performance of each using a common methodology. When possible, we share the exact builds (mast, fuse, rear wing, front wing, etc) to help save viewers the time and energy to navigate through some of the decisions needed to spec a foil. Some of the links are affiliate links, meaning we make a small commission if you buy through these links. We have a similar arrangement with multiple retailers and brands, and are sharing this particular foil because it scored the highest in our review, and is our current favorite foil.

Can we just appreciate the fact that bro was upfront with us and said he makes a small commission if you use his link but he doesn’t care where you buy it from

[LivingProofFilmz]

He said this was the only foil he was able to pump for more than 2 minutes. Holy hell that means riding one of these is tiring AF

[monadamus]

Omg. I always assumed those were being dragged by a boat out of sight. These are so cool

[laprepper]

As someone stuck in the city I really wish I could just spend every weekend on the lake having fun like this

[shanestewart]

Oh, is that what those are called? A "Hydrofoil"?? Ive been wondering what they call those things. They look so damn fun!

[jamesmorrison]

I've never seen someone so honest about the commision and willing to say please go through your own retailer. If I end up needing a foil, I will definitely use yalls link. If for nothing else, to show the appreciation of the honesty yall have.

[calebbrooks]

Man, I remember learning about hydrofoils as a youngling and thinking they were so cool it makes so much sense. Ride above the waves.

[billflk]

This is the 1st time I have seen the product, I think it is awesome,

[mesmith]

The guys engineering it should start a patreon. More people could donate smaller amounts, then it would also increase the budget for engineering the perfect Hydrofoil, and people could purchase the finished product rather than having to upgrade later from an earlier model!

[Windsurf]

Adrian will be pleased with your results

[lronbutters]

You guys are so awesome!!!
Keep up the good work!
Hope to be on a hydrofoil that is smooth to ride in my future!

Thanks for the videos! Heading to North Bay ON for my first wing foiling experience this weekend.

“We wanted to fly forever.” Such a kickstarter line.

[justincoats]

You need some type of electric assist. (I know there are full electric e-foil boards.) I'm talking just a little assist. I have an ebike and it's changed riding bikes for me. I love it. Anyways, I might be strong on toes. Ha, ha. Keep up the good work. I love all of your videos.

[pureprotein]

Hey waketheif, you should make a website that displays the review summary’s and scores for your different wings, and maybe even a tool to compare parts. Honestly, you have the biggest platform on the internet about reviews of these foils and there is much room for you to grow!

[SergeantSquared]

It is easily understandable why there would be a two minute max. It also seems as if the solution is fairly simple also, as it should be. I love dynamics. I could easily envision *30% increase in efficiency.*

[Racer-M]

I feel like the jump on the board and pump away is going to be a BIG obstacle for some people. Shit i snowboard and wakeboard and pretty sure it would take me sometime lol. But very cool non the less.

[SortaIrish]

Sorry to go off topic, but can I just say-
Wherever you live, it’s insanely beautiful!
Seriously I would never go indoors 🤭
Love your videos too, you make it look so easy!

[johnathanharvard]

ive tried an e-foil and theyre a ton of fun

[tastierwindow]

1st time seeing theese things, look pretty cool & could totally be a sport
