Just if somebody else has some children and wants to let them try foil surfing in controlled envirnoment.



My son (8) wanted to have a go, so i setup a simple pulley. He started on his knees, and now he is OK standing (sometimes).
I recommend a Helmet as you get close to the peer as you see in the video. And do it somewhere where no one else is swimming - ropes and swimmers don't go well.

I'm gonna try that to practice foilpumping! I think its easier if you just let him hold the rope though, instead of attaching it to the board.

:) yes I told my son, but it feels better for him like that.

You need somebody strong to pull (at least for the start), and a dry peer also helps.
