.Interesting that Andrea did not use his PORTAL FINS:As one month ago he was totally stoked about them:Does this mean that these special fins do not really make sense for jumping ?Because fins in general loose too much grip if the board is extremely edged and so only the rail counts ?And they are slower […]
Needed a new harness as my waist harness was starting to look end of life so thought I would try a seat harness (on the back of Mike Mcdonalds video) but wondering how to get the right fit.On my waist harness you kind of crank it tight and then continually shuck it down as you […]
Highest for me was 12m Vortex using a foil board, 20.1m on Woo.i jumped 19.5 meters on a 15m Sonic 4 riding a twin tip. Both sessions were super gusty. I think over 25m high is possible with the right conditions (strong, gusty wind and big kickers).Statistics: Posted by fernmanus — Wed Sep 17, 2025 […]
I use a sewing awl meant for shoe repair and generally will go all the way through the harness with the thread which is sometimes kiteline tho that's a bit thick. I'll sometimes use that waxed shoe thread they give you with the speedy stitcher. on this job I would cut away entirely the fabric […]
Knowing how to foil is helpful, yet not sufficient to pump foil. Also kitefoiling is not the easiest to learn - I’d say efoil or wakefoil (behind a boat) are way easier. Then goes wingfoil which is more technical, yet all three efoil/wakefoil/wingfoil would get you few steps closer to prone/pumpfoil and would allow to […]

Did someone try to learn pump without prior kite foiling experience? The gear for kite pump is completely different, one for wingfoil is more similar isn’t? I see sometimes good kite foilers starting in marginal wind and they pump quite a bit to get foil levitating.I know one fanatic who started from pumpfoil with no […]
