      I have a few shorts that show how I stand up. On a shorter board, I actively hold down the nose and control the throttle carefully as I get my front foot in. I usually hit the throttle harder as I stand and slide the rear foot in.

    Hello William...I am putting together a foil kit that will include the Gen 2 Foil Drive. You seem to have some great gear that works well for you in your home conditions. I was hoping to get your opinion about masts. At the point you are now in your progression...what mast would you chose for your Foil Drive set up if you could only have one? Would you recommend the integrated masts over the movable option? What mast length for prone/DW and what distance is your preference for the motor...I will be running the max battery so I know that adds about 5 additional cm. I will be riding in similar conditions to you as I am about 3 hours south of you on the East Coast of Florida. Any info would be greatly appreciated...otherwise, great videos and perspective!

    • @foilfanatic

      I absolutely love my 800mm Axis Ultra Pro Mast. It is a premium indulgence. If I was not attempting to create a business as a content creator, I am not sure I could justify the extra expense. It is incredible and the extra direct control takes a bit to get used to. It is the best mast on the market in my opinion. Short of that, I would go with the High Modulous carbon mast from Axis. I have not tried the No Limitz integrated mast.

    • @foilfanatic
      @foilfanatic Před 25 dny

      Thanks, great question. I came to the Foil Drive from winging and a lot of jumping, so footstraps were natural for me. I now jump with the Foil Drive , but it does not end there. The straps help me dig into carves deeper and help me pull the board up harder during pumps. So they help my riding and since I have been using them since day one, I stick with them. I can ride without them, I just prefer them for my ride style.

    I was out on a 4’5” 38L yesterday and found kicking to get the board planing the easiest especially out in biggish surf with a chop.Its easy to get up on small boards in calm water.

    • @foilfanatic
      @foilfanatic Před 27 dny

      I have been on the Gen2 since around early October of 2023. When I first started, I needed the 44L to get going and I had to paddle up some of my larger foils, like the 1201. With time, changes in technique, better use of the waves, and a better feel for the foils and boards, I can get going on a smaller boards with smaller foils with the help of a small wave. I have avoided posting a video on how to get going because so much of it is based on reaction to the conditions now. I rarely kick or paddle these days. It boils down to nose and throttle control for me and keeping my legs out of the water to avoid the drag. If you look closely in this clip, I gave the nose a quick and hard bounce to break the plane, it rose slightly, and I stood up. But this is a bigger foil and a bigger board. The 1001 and the 30L will take a ton more effort. With patience, experience, and decent conditions, much smaller gear can be used.

      If I am not falling hard enough to come up spitting salt water, I am probably not trying hard enough. Falling is how I got better at getting up on foil quickly. On a different , note, I am working on getting enough footage for a follow up to this video. I am discovering transition pumping works as well on the waves as it does on skate ramps. More power to the pump and less work in the waves. 🤙

    Yeah man - exactly. I was able to get my sinker up today for first time by using a big wing trying to keep flat as much as possible without sinking it, getting maybe 1/2 way onto a plane and then sliding front foot into the strap and ease off throttle rest of way (I think). Throttle control may be the hardest part? Like you told me weeks ago takes practice and that’s it. Thanks for your help again

      I have the Axis PNG1300 and use high but I think all the settings wiould work with the 1300. To start on my Foil Drive I used a smaller PNG 910 (and another riders 1010) which are easier to ride as ithey go faster and turn easily. Now with the 1300 I'm getting better at getting up and pumping every session. Still a long way to go but this 1300 is popular with Downwinders starting out.

      @@foilfanatic funny you say that. Was out on a 75 and 60L prone boards and spitfire 1100 yesterday for first time. One thing I love about the FD has been the ability to play with different equipment combos. Swap out a progressive rear for a skinny and see the difference in a controlled setting immediately (I’ll play on a perfectly flat reservoir). Take off the 1400 for an 1100 and see what piece specifically is contributing an affect. This weekend I got to analyze the black fuselage versus the Advance+ and it took maybe 15 minutes to come to a conclusion. Things that you could never recreate waiting for wind. If anything I’m seeing that I need less gear for what I will typically encounter. Otherwise I’m looking at these sessions as training for the waves and the windy days ahead.
