    I wish I lived in hawiaii . What an amazing life. Kai Lenni is such a dude. Not pretentious in the slightest. And always comes across as being constantly stoked.
    He's an inspiration

    I remember the guy who pioneered foiling in the 80’s. He invented it for a friend or a family member who lost their leg and couldn’t waterski anymore. I used to watch him out at the lakes and river and his was a chair that he sat in. His big move was cutting across the wake and doing an up/down pump then slapping the board on the ramp of the wake and it would launch him straight into a huge flip. I see you guys going off the ramp under the power of the foil. Try slapping the nose on a downward pump then arch back and pull and see what happens. Like you’re bouncing off the ramp. I’ll be looking for it. All your stuff is great.
    All you guy’s have the Aloha spirit and it rocks.

    Am I the only one who would love to see the „backstage stuff“ of Kai‘s sessions?! For instance his positioning and paddle techniques… how he gets out… more pop ups… and especially how he handles whipe outs without a leash…

    I wanna grow up to be like Kai
    I was dumb enough tobuy a Pyzel and Go Foil setup and try learning with a broken foot and cast. I prone foiled until I could stand and have been at it for a few months.
    Absolute inspiration! I've used lots of these videos to learn what setups to try. And more importantly, what to order from Taco Bell.

    How fast are you going on the foil? ( if your watch tells you)And can you ride them through the white water or do you get hung up?

    • @KaiLenny98
      @KaiLenny98  4 роки тому +3

      Keagan Luttrell in theses waves I can get going around 20mph, if the foil is a good design it goes through white water no worries

    What’s the longest time you stayed on your foil?

  • @AWildBard
    @AWildBard 3 роки тому

    From the beginning I was worried about how deep the water was with the foil so low underneath you...
    I was wondering if you have to walk out a little bit or is it deep enough almost right away?

    • @krispewkrem3
      @krispewkrem3 3 роки тому +1

      You paddle out with the mast and wings up above the surface. Once you're deep enough, you flip it over and get the mast/wings under water. Some dudes are good enough to run at the water and jump on the board, and pump to keep the wings off the rock/reef/sand. It's mental

      Bom dia Kai, if I get selected to win the Go Pro 9, I would shoot videos of a kite boarding school here in Mozambique with locals doing flipping impressive moves. I would also include shots of mozambican culture how the kids live here in a developing country and trying to do sports that westerners do. #gopro9giveaway
