  • I run through my thought process for choosing foils for use with the Foil Drive Gen2 Max when foiling on the Florida Space Coast. I discuss the Axis Art Pro 1201, 1401, 1001 and the Axis Spitfire 900 & 1030. I did my best to describe the trade offs when selecting a foil for the conditions.

    Great overview and context on how to choose your foil to the conditions. I’m curious about your use of foot straps - can you comment on your preference there and how or why this works for you? Appreciate you sharing your riding experience with us!

      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.

    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!

      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.
