Foiling

So no foilers? Or no one admitting to it?

bunch of kids foiling around here.
making it look easy

Maybe if you titled the thread 'foiler alert'?

I kite foil a fair bit. It's pretty fun, a bit sketchy with the foil blade. You really barely need a lump of a wave to get you moving, it's pretty cool.

Haven't tried prone foiling yet as I normally only head out for a surf when the waves are good, but it looks fun. You'd want a fair bit of space to learn it....

Roadkill just for you :), gotta move to Byron Bay though for the full experience

Looks like a lot of fun . Maybe a way for me to get my surf fitness up when there are no waves .

I bought one after reading this: https://www.beginnersurfgear.com/foil-surfboard-buyers-guide/
It's a lot more challenging than I anticipated. The main thing is start off in small surf - like 1-2 foot max - otherwise you're seeing your arse
