    Nice run !!! I am not sure why it is rated so dangerous, or, is it shallow so a wipe0out makes the surfer get creamed.
    The speeds are barely waterskiing speeds, so it shouldn't be that bad, I guess, unless it's really shallow. Good video !!!
    I have had waterskiing type wipeouts as high as around 100 mph (150 Km) and unless you go under, such as hit a wave or swell that takes you under, it not a big deal. If you go under, it needs to be deep because you will go far under and it is a long way back to the surface.

    • @gatesurfer
      @gatesurfer 2 місяці тому +1

      I think even foils have limits. Drag is drag. But can you imagine losing it while riding an extra two feet above the water? You’d skip off the water like riverstone and slam into the sand in one bounce. Hooked in, you’d be sliced in half by your foil. Unhooked, you’d break your neck.
