The honest excitement of the brothers is infectious.
Well said! 100%
Welcome to the team John and Nathan! So stoked for the sport that you guys are a part of it. Foils look and feel amazing, time to do some deep water exploration.
Thank you Patrick! We appreciate you and all you have done for Liftfoils over all the years.
oh man. I want to hit the water now. You guys are killing it. Pumped. Yew.
Box arrived yesterday. Opened up to discover the most gorgeous blades yet. Can’t wait to get these wet.
We appreciate you friend!
John & Nathan, You are amazing!
The Pyzel foil is excellent. Probably
made special for you. Your athletic
ability is extraordinary. Turtle 🐢 Bay was really windy the week we
were there. We seemed to end up in
Hale’iwa almost every day.
Go North Shore Squad & Team
Florence!
Be safe. Be well. 🌺🤙🏽🌊💃🏻
The enthusiasm and stoke shown by both Nathan and John in this video is pretty cool.
It's the special feeling everyone has!
Love the stoke. DW rocks. True watermen. A moment in time here for foiling 🤙🤛
Such a cool video in many ways...... Thanks
LOVE IT!!! So happy to see your partnership!
This is so awesome
Tried to get down winding going here on the east coast but the talent pool is shallow. We did an eight mile trip two OR canoe and myself on SUP. Super intense. Definitely not for the faint hearted.
Fantastic! A revolution in technology coupled with the evolution of surfing delivers two brothers on the cutting edge of adventure foiling. Mesmerizing video. Thanks for posting.
Thank you!
I absolutely want to buy some of these now that they’re endorsed by the Florence’s. They know their stuff!
100%
Cool to see you guys so stoked... of course you live in paridise... but being able to share so many big adventures as brothers has to be the best 'stoke" of all!
Well said!
What an incredible experience to do this with your brother. I'm inspired and will be foiling!
Agree 100%!
This was excellent
Thanks for sharing the stoke of downwinding fellas!!!!
Thank you!
Yeeew!!! yeah boys enjoy the flight.
Great video! Thanks
Thank you!
I’m in
Thank you
Great stuff
We appreciate you!
This is insane!
love to get one tomorrow great progression enjoy
You will enjoy it!
Fired up on these!
Thank you for all you do!
Would be cool if JJF tried windsurfing. I reckon he'd get into it if he likes sailing.
so rad
Pretty epic
That is awesome. C U guys in the channel.
Thank you!
Very good for the sport to have his face in it. Should do an interview some time
for less talented people, or not as comfortable with the ocean and being miles out (not sure if that's comfort or crazy).. isn't this where an e-foil with the retractable blade a good option so you can restart and then shut the power off? seems like the perfect combo.
I need to know what kt sup board they are using? please 🤙🤙
Watching this video I’m now hyper stoked! I’m already out there doing this every day, where does one find even more hours in a day to play?! 🤙🤙
You will love it!
When are you guys going to start kite surfing? I would love to see you using the wind and blazing huge turns in the summertime
Maybe one day!
Sick

SICK! For someone looking to get into foiling, where the best place to start?
Depends on where you live and your water conditions. Wing or wake or going to be the most accessible and give you a good start.
Got some stories and guides on our site too liftfoils.com/stories/foil-surfing-techniques-a-quick-learning-guide
@@LiftFoils I'm either in Bali or in Gambia but really looking to get into something that will be challenging when conditions aren't great. Gambia is pretty flat and often onshore, so not sure if foiling would work? Thanks for the resources though, will keep an eye out!
So whats good with the new board design? the new foil boards look longer almost paddle board like does that make it so if you fall you can paddle and get going again?
Longer boards will give you greater inertia on the up pump and and sustain movement. Think bombers over fighter jets. If you want carve and control you want a smaller board in surf. But the bigger ones will give you greater efficiency. Which in deep waters and out from land you'll want to get you home. Plus the addition of stability and platform.
Bottom line, use case and preference. It's all about how you want to feel the flight and the environment you're in
Mental!
Thank you Patrick for all you have done for Liftfoils over all the years!
Which mast are the guys using?
They mainly run their 28" M2 mast
What about Ivan?
What's the best way to get started? Is being able to swim a pre-requisite or can you just pick that up after... 😂🎉 Jokes... Is it best to hit up a local board shop and do some test rides? I'm in LA.
haha, yea check out local shops. We have some affiliates listed on our site at liftfoils.com/locations
Bottom line, don’t go alone get a partner.🤙
Going 3 miles out with no boat seems insane
They live in the water and are the greats. But not impossible. Like anything, it takes practice and perseverance but it's attainable and they would tell you the same. Long live the riders
