@Chef23 this is what I do , no need for a proper surf board if you're only going to ride the boat wake of do flat water pumping you will need a surf board if your endgame is going out to see sur foilsurf real waves and manage a proper takoff ... mine is an old wakeboard (boat board as the cable ones tend to be too soft) under which I bolted the Gong Allvator L surf foil (https://gongsupshop.com/epages/box1707.sf/fr_FR/?ObjectPath=/Shops/box1707/Products/GON8SFOILALLSURFCPTL) on the pic it shows the tuttle box setup but it also comes in with the standard US rail plate ... this is the kind of fun and progression you can expect with this kind of toys !

@BraceMaker I haven't ridden the refkex skifoil but am quite advanced at riding surf/wake foils... The way you ride a foil is back foot directly above the mast so no the ski foil setup looks right. . then you balance the flight plane with your front foot. personally I don't really see the point of putting binders on a foil ... then call it what you want skifoil wakefoil surfoil supfoil it all doesn't really matter what really counts is what lies beneath. . stab, wing , mast the great think about foils it that you need barely no speed to get them going and fly , on the rope 7mph will get you up , at 10mph you're surfing without the rope behind any ski boat !

Kiting ... even more addictive than Skiing ...

those SLO's were the best , Patrice event pushed it to SL5B adding a Stepover on the last 180 , this looked pretty rad ... dunno why they decided to put a ban on 1 foot ski lines ... need to look if I have a video of Flip Stepover from when I had it put in the books !

@oldjeep -> gong (french brand) foils are €399 (for the foil) , €799 Foil + Board Foils are tons on fun , and an amazing toy to workout , as mentioned before no need for a big wakeboat , any ProStar 190 or Nautique 200 will do , even a small boat with 9hp outboard would do , actually you don't even need a boat if you are fit enough ;-) https://www.facebook.com/100014525910246/videos/509235799570613/
