Great to see foilstyle content from George and good to see Duotone supporting the direction windfoil should always have been pushed in as there's lots of fin skills crossover for those of us who like cranking round corners. The foil looks reminiscent of the Sab909? Like the look of the board too, always good to have options!

Yep 14kts, 5.2 foil freek and Sab 909 plenty. That's my biggest rig these days. I'm about 82kg...

Good stuff. When the timing is right it's amazing how much pop there is. Takes you by surprise esp as we spend so much time trying to avoid a foil-out!

I started off worrying about coming down too hard and flat so just mash the back leg down, sheet out a little to encourage the nose up then sheet in once the board is well up and out pushing up for high nose and then a stabiliser first landing. The flat and fast landing maintaining speed is possible too but it's easy to exit out of the front door. My port tack feels good, starboard tack is still messy timing to get the leg control in the right sequence.

My fin brain says to look for a little ramp to help but in fact you can launch very well off nothing. Have fun!
