    I’m about to buy foil-drive but have Armstrong FG carbon board. I’ve heard the latest release FD has better connectivity and there is the antenna if needed, but I’d prefer to invest the $A400 into smaller FD specific board like DC Foils or Sunova. Anyone out there using Armstrong well with FD at the moment? Thanks for a great product guys 😊

    Terrific video Paul explaining the innovation/design of the NoLimitz FD integrated mast. Just curious on whether or not you've built any of these with the motor pod in efoil position? The underwater footage demonstrates there's fairly smooth water flow around the motor pod/mast unit near the foil, suggesting the setup would glide nicely off power, say in downwind or pumping between waves.

    Love that you guys back the product. In the two blade hub the thread goes right through. In the three blade it is a “heat insert” as you say. But that’s insufficient to tighten the screw properly and the regularly give way. Think it’s worth re-thinking that.

    Good job 👏 here in the Gold Coast, there are lots of guys foil driving. Luckily I’ve only ever seen them on empty banks far away from any surfers 🤙 the Gold Coast has some of the busiest lineups and yet both fd and regular foilers still find space away from others.
