Testing the Indiana Hydroskate Pumpfoil 

Have you been kitefoiling with the Hydroskate so far?

exactly, getting your feet in optimal position is much easier with a narrower board.

@@PumpFooling-bm2rb yes, very much...

you got the Hydroskate? nice, if it wouldn`t be so expensive, I would totally consider buying it

yes, the microchip is insane indeed. I haven`t tested it yet, but I have at least one friend that went back to an Axis board. I need to ask him once for the reasons.

Microchip felt heavy, that is the only things I remember from trying it one time. Do not even know the weight, that was just the feeling.

@@mihazidar4856 I guess the Slingshot is quite similiar to Axis, Indiana and the new Gong Board. 90cm seems to be the most common size!

no, I never hit the Sirus so far. I can understand that you are afraid, but I never hit the front wing so far.

Yes, for sure. The best docks are the one that are overhanging at the end. For example there is one in Silvaplana (ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-ec0qpqYwlNg.html). Also the height makes a difference. Too high get`s difficult to put the frontwing into the water, too low makes it difficult to jump high enough. I also prefer wood over metal, because they scratch the foil less. Usually, we don`t have so many different docks, but you can just try to look for some in your region through google maps. Usually, we don`t have so much choice. Where do you live? I could help you a bit in central switzerland

@@FoilingPastor thank you - i am in the region Basel - max 1 h drive would be ok since i have not found anything

@@mulhauserthomas1325 I haven`t been pumping there so far. I know that some friends have been pumping at the Aare and some at the Rhein, but rivers are a bit more difficult to learn.

@@mulhauserthomas1325 that`s probably a difficult area to learn pumpfoiling. Some people went pumpfoiling in the Rhein and in the Aare, but rivers are more difficult to learn in the beginning.
