I’d like to see a video about who the foil drive is for, is it just for guys that want to prone foil in the waves, or is it a good training tool for pump foiling. I wing foil but would like to try prone foiling, but paddling onto foil would destroy my shoulders, so foil drive looks good. But over 5k is a big investment for another toy. Larry
Hey Larry! The beauty of foil drive is it does have it's place in all disciplines and for all kind of people from learning to pros. I'd suggest having a look at our ambassador page and seeing how people are using it. Olivia Piana is a great example of someone using Foil Drive downwinding, in the surf and pump foiling, but also to teach people all of these skills as well. Sounds like Foil Drive would be a really great addition for you as someone wanting to get into prone foiling. A lot of people have learnt new disciplines or fast tracked that learning curve with the motor. You can start in a medium mast position for a little more time on motor the pop up. Skipping the need for arms really! We have a stack of dealers around as well who run demos and lessons on Foil Drive, could be a good way of trying it out. We've also got a stack of content on our youtube with a range of people and skill levels. Check out the Masterclass Playlist and Foil Drive TV as a starting point for some inspo! Caitlyn
Keep an eye out in the next few hours on our YT :D We had the Travel Batteries on show but must have missed this video, super neat, tidy set up ready for flight!

Nice video. Foil Drive is great. Back from the future?
Thanks. Previewing the 2025 gear. We covered the 2024 gear last year. :)
@@WingsurfingMagazine ah nice... these guys move fast. Guess got confused by the video title... hope to be there in 2025.
The brains behind FD. What a legend.
Sure is!
No talk about the travel battery?!
Kevin Wade spoke about the Manta Foils travel edition: ua-cam.com/video/d1yFBUxGj7Q/v-deo.html
It’s in testing same size as the MAX break down in 3 peace’s. I don’t know if that will be the final product
