Foil History : From the Godfather Himself!

- Foiling and the adventure it offers is my favorite sport, on or off the water, because it's a whole new world! Foils are an entirely different feeling because they are one of the few things in the world where we get to ride a wing rather than a board. Dating back to the 1800's, foils go farther back in history than I ever considered! In my opinion, foils are the fastest growing watersport worldwide, and the technology is advancing even faster. But they started somewhere, so when I ran into my good friend Mike Murphy at a boat show and we both agreed that we needed to meet up and chat about some foil history. Tony Klarich's Florida house was the meeting point and the watersports gear and foils started coming out as well as the stories. The rest is history!

This was amazing. It is so awesome seeing these legendary guys still out there showing they still got it!
The rocker on those boards is something else! Recovering from a full foil breach is a bit crazy.
Absolutely loved these videos, like you Shaun, I grew up watching guys hot dog skiing, riding air chairs, and watching videos like “hot rockin feet” being from SK Canada going to Cypress Gardens in 1988 and watching the show, I was in love with water sports. Watching my Dad well into his mid 40’s barefoot with the handle in his mouth, and myself now being in my mid 40’s I understand how these sports keep us young, amazing to see older guys still rippin it, and still pushing their limits. ❤
Stayin on the water is one of the best ways to stay young!
Just started foiling. Absolutely love it. Thanks a bunch for the history in our sport. Truly enjoy my ride 😎
Just getting back into foiling after riding air chair back in the 90's. The foil tech has advanced so much, it's actually incredible.
The foil stoke is real
Very real 👊🏼
Awesome video! Watching you three legends ride is amazing. Very happy, warm feeling video 😊
Thanks Glenn 👊🏼 and thanks for watching!
Good stuff I love the old-school stuff. I love the hair on the older gentleman. He is Still living the dream. Too bad you and I will never have that dream. Lol not a huge fan of the foil. I had one of the Fliteboard‘s for a while. it’s fun, but I prefer to be strapped in standing sideways until I die lol.
Fantastic videos Shaun!! So cool to learn all the history behind foils!
The sit ski ☠️
Felt that way for a hot minute!
I think Mike did some flipping on our lake in Ohio approximately 2002. It was so cool!
Way impressive to see it in person right?!
Super cool video and the history is really fun to learn
Thanks D 👊🏼
🤘🏼 74 and still sending it! Awesome 😎
Cool to hear the history and see the vintage gear.
So much gear that we didn't even show...crazy!
I'm pretty sure I rode with mike murphy once on the snake river, ID. he gave us some tips, really cool guy.
circa 1998/1999.
Shaun, have you ever done any trick skiing? Maybe an idea for a future video? Been on the water since I was 10 years old and now teaching my kids. Love your videos!
I have. Even competed on one in college. 🤙
So crazy meeting you a couple weeks ago at Clemson, your like what this guy of the hydro foil is to me of wakeboarding, super incredible meeting you and thank you so much for sending that video to the kids of us, they still talk about it!
Great meeting you as well 👊🏼
Three waterspouts legends right there! I've been blown away by each of you on different occasions. Tony at Long Beach Marie Stadium in SoCal , Mike on some random canal in West Palm near Jeremy Kovak's old house and Shaun at OWC.
🤙
I still have that same purple air chair haha. My parents bought it in the early 90’s!
Holy moley Mike! You're flipping unreal!!!
The Air Chair was so epic in the early 90’s. It was futuristic with an element of mystery and completely different than anything in water sports. I wanted one sooooo bad but the price was insane. Thanks Shaun for the trip down memory lane. What’s next? Slalom tips by Carl Roberge?!
For sure new adventure when that thing came out! Carl Roberge reference! Love it
So cool, I remember seeing the air chair in the mid nineties and thinking WTF, and to think where that lead to today’s hydrofoil’s is pretty cool. 🤘🤘Thanks Shaun for the history lesson.
Was so crazy to see the foil back then and people are still seeing em for the first time. Was super fun to connect w Mike and Tony, and wow what an experience!
I just picked up a vintage ‘98 AirChair a few weeks ago. It is soooo fun. Only wish I would have gotten one years ago! This was cool to learn the history!
Love it!
This is some awesome stuff! Total legends!!!
Thanks for stoppin by 37 👊🏼
Learned to sky ski from Mike back in 03 on lake Elsinore with my dad and friend Jared
Grew up not too far from there in Mission Viejo and that was one of our skiing spots
@@Shaun.Murray I live in mission viejo now off la paz
Very cool
74? that dude is my hero!! He is from other world...by the way, this video is TOP!
Thanks for watching 👊🏼
That is awesome I remember seeing one for the first time at Castaic Lake back in the late 80s. I was telling my dad that guy is sitting down and strapped to a ski. Craziest thing I ever saw and I believe Skurfing was wakeboarding back then. I also loved kneeboarding back then too. 👍
Castaic! Been there as well. Skurfed on Shasta for the first time at 11 years old.
@Shaun.Murray I remember water-skiing on doubles when I waa a kid at Shasta. Remember the wood skis 😆.
Mike is incredible!
I definitely think you should do a dedicated video of Tony Klarich doing his signature front flip on a slalom ski.
Such a crazy trick!
Nice one! Thanks for making this.
Thought you'd enjoy this Craig 👊🏼
Looks like a blast!
Good times for sure Ryan!
Hi Shaun, I'm sure that you have heard it many times before, but I used to fly with your dad on the 727. You were always a topic of discussion and the photos in his "brag book" of you were epic! And yeah, I might have even played your video game...Old school, indeed.
Frito, though I've heard it before, it never gets old! My dad flew for TWA for many years, and some for American, and I've heard some good stories. He actually wrote about book about some true/funny pilot stories, which you can check it out here. lloydmurray.com/
So thanks for watching and playing the game!
Florida Activities. 🎉
Air Chair still exists in Lake Havasu City 👌
Mike Murphy
Parker, Az
Arizona Shores
The foil OG
Yessur!
7:30-8:30 was the best minute of video I have ever seen! 👀
Always blown away by his comfort on the water
Dude...watching how absolutely in control Mike was with that foil was on a complete other level. 74 years old, are you kidding me!!!?? And also props to the editing and background music. It really hit hard with the edit!
Your the best shaun! Keep going!
Thanks Fox! 👊🏼
No problem bro. And its liam btw
💯🤩💪
Hey Shaun, did my first couple of tantrums this week and now working on spins, any quick tips for 360s? I’ve watched your detention on them but wasn’t able to land it
Have you worked on some slow boat speed surface spins straight behind the boat yet?
Time to take that airchair out for a spin again!!!
I did. Now it's your turn!
74!!!!!
people that like foiling also like rollerblading. tell me im wrong.
I like rollerblading, so you're correct as far as I'm concerned! 😂

Where can you get a kneefoil??
Don't think there's more than this one from what I know
You grew up on lake Saint Louis?!? So did I! Lol one love STL baby
Went to Wentzville as well! 👊🏼
Man I’d love to get into this but the gear is so expensive 😢
I hear ya for sure but some people are sharing setups. BUT, I'll say it's worth it either way. So much fun!
