Do You Need a Big Foil in Small Waves? 

Thanks Jerome! I think Ryan is on the lighter side, around 150lbs but he'll have to chime in to confirm!

That's it! 850cm2 area and 90cm span

It's amazing how small a foil you can use once you get the design right. I had a lot of fun with my early 2022 designs but this year my latest design is not much bigger than this one at 900mm span and 1020 sqcm area (I'm 115kg) and I ride it from 2,8M wing to 6M wing and I'm so happy with the glide and even the breach reconnection performance. I don't sell them yet but it is so interesting after 3 years of intermittent design to look at something like the plan outline of your foil and straight away, to know how it will feel at different speeds for different rider weights depending on how much double bias is in the composite layup. I've approached it a little differently but every designer is looking for those edges to optimise for their own local test conditions and are slowly heading to common goals in their own ways for the more performative foils.@@omenfoils

great opportunity to hang out your friends and talk about how much foiling sucks, haha

We disagree @aldemirgraselli3253 it is in fact a expensive foil!

Would love to make them cheaper, but compromise always comes with a cost.
