I came down to Ventana the first week of January and on my way picked up a wing/sup/foil setup to try to learn. After 8 sessions I decided it was too much work and not my thing. Sold that rig and bought a kite foil board.
First session a few days ago was trying to get the board up on the water and keep the foil down. Dozens of fails and falls.
Second session yesterday morning. Same routine. I rigged up underpowered like the homies down here told me, then I hit a hole in the wind, kite dropped and I made my way back to shore.
Second session yesterday afternoon. First time I sent the kite I got up on foil in perfect trim, totally by accident, and went for 20-30 seconds hauling ass. Kissed by God moment. OMFG it’s so sick. Sicker than I imagined. Rest of the session was a shitshow.
Totally. Hooked.
Any other kite foilers here?
