Really good example of using the Go Foil without excessive pumping , just letting it do its work .Great video..

It's also the first foil surfing video I have seen where you see the paddle in, and the wave is not actually breaking.

Most foil surfing videos show waves that you could reasonably surf without a foil. Videos that show foiling on unbroken swells usually have a tow in to start.

That's a great video, it shows just how smooth the feeling is. I've never liked the crazy pumping, too much effort for something so beautiful as foiling.
I started with prone foiling then shortboard and now SUP foiling. Here's one of my foils dropping into a tube.
We might need to start a seperate FOIL SUP category for foiling threads ?

Faark thats hilarious
First vid I reckon I have seen where "the foiler" does anything bit draw extended lines smooothly.
Keahi is getting pretty close to ripping on that thing...glimpse of future potential methinks!
Imagine the angst and hate that's going to stir up over on Antiques Roadshow aka "The Longboard Forum"
Pardon me while I change my incontinence pad

Indeed!

No straps, pure flow.

That's actually the first time I've watched a foil vid and thought " I'd like to do that". Nice.
