foil. Don’t make the first sessions in too light
wind as it’s gonna be hard to keep the kite
up in the air. You will need to be very good
in piloting your kite! At least 12 knots (up to
18 knots) is my advice. I love to use a 10m
Rebel for Foil.
Better if you know how to ride well on a
surfboard strapless before trying the foil…
Once on the board, forget all you know about
kitesurfing! You can edge and press on your
back leg as you would ride a Twin Tip… but
really you need to put your weight on the front
legs, more than you can imagine!
