that was amazing: I don't know how to make tiny golf-ball-dimples or the opposite convex-bumps but both make a massive difference releasing surface-tension-drag, even prevents cavitation; you just have a super-dynamic hydro-engineering-surface to play with.
Most amazing my friend- modern man creating and capitalizing on the ancient art of the wind and sail... fascinating.. your sea forefathers would be in awe, at the skills and materials you use. Superb video!
I’d be interested in airfoil selection, shape selection, sizing, for both main wing and canard, how to decide on/set stall incidence for canard as well. Composites are such awesome materials.
I'd love to build molds to duplicate a high-performance model for mass production. I was in aerospace tooling, carbon fiber and epoxy; this would be so fun to duplicate by the hundreds.
Great build ,nice workman ship , the eye and skills can do what cnc can do ,and actually for flow/fairing hand sanding with a form following inner may be better than any cnc . I have made foils with ply ,for windsurfers ,and surfboards [ starting in late 70s ] , the laminates give you a great picture of the foil shape and a way to replicate both sides . You could possibly do a set of plans , material list , profiles etc ?.
Great craftmanship. After you shaped the wing using those screws, what kept the shape after you removed it from the baseplate? Did you steam it or something like that?
The 2 layers of plywood making up the wing stay in this curved shape once the epoxy cures, it will give back a little once the screws are removed, but 90% of the curve will stay.
Wonderful job! What is approximately cost of materials for this wing + mast?And how did you now exact shape of the wing and mast? Do you have any template or you just measured some factory produced one to mimic the shape?
I have just seen the cost in the latest video - around 50$, great. Please just tell me your idea for making the proper shape of the stuff, I assume it has to be made with high precision
Hey man, appreciate your work, just one question, is the rear stabs flat, or is it like a tear drop shape on leading edge and flat on trailing edge, or flat on leading edge and teardrop shape on the trailing edge. Thanks a lot
Hi. Thanks for sharing. How did you select the wings profile? Are from NACA profiles? And the angle of mounting related to the longitudinal body and mast?
I eyeballed all the profiles and angles, but before that, i studied many different factory made foils on the beach. The different layers of ply's will give you all the visual info needed when shaping. I'll try and make a video about these two subjects soon. Cheers!
Amazing! A few questions, if ok. (1) What type of plywood? (2) what was the white material you poured into the bolt areas? (3) Carbon and fiberglass weights? Thank you!
1)4mm thick Regular non-marine plywood 2) Epoxy mixed with high density filler (West system 404) 3)11oz unidirectional 3inch wide carbon tape and 6 oz e-glass. Cheers
Everything is nice. Thanks for those few minutes of dream. One thing I don't really see is if the last fiberglass covers the leadins and trailing edges. I was scared that the coats delaminate à joining point. Cheers,
I stopped using fiberglass in my recent builds, I just add an extra carbon layer to have something to sand into for the final sanding before the hotcoat. There is an overlap of between the top and bottom lamination at the leading edge, the trailing edge dosnt but there is a decent edge of carbon and epoxy before the wood, haven't had an issues so far. Cheers
I think it improves the stability: a downward force is required to compensate for the kite's upward force, so its like an inverse flying plane, the v-shape of a plane serves for a stabilization, so it must be inverse v-shaped
It's about manouverability. Passenger planes have the opposite, upward vee of the wings for stability since they are not overly concerned with manouverabilty. Fighter jets, on the other hand, have wings like these foils with an upsidedown vee because it's all about manouverability - easier to turn. Cheers
Its a pretty good idea, you could treat the carbon fiber board just like the plywood. The shaping process will probably be tougher, but you might be able to skip lamination and just hotcoat your shape. Could be worth a try if you have Carbon fiber Board.

A pure artist, craftsman and an athlete! I am impressed! I hope to raise my kids to be like this man!
Beautiful project execution, well done! Looks like bliss on the water😺
Awesome work. So cool to get to see you use it.
Very nice build video, and the result on the water seems good too !

Looks like a futuristic WWII's Supermarine Spitfire
That is a superb piece of work, been planning something similar. Better get on with it now!
Most amazing my friend- modern man creating and capitalizing on the ancient art of the wind and sail... fascinating.. your sea forefathers would be in awe, at the skills and materials you use. Superb video!
Really nicely done, makes me want to give it a go. Would this be heavier than other foils, does weight matter that much? I've never tried foiling.
Very cool, I love the way you put the curve in the wings, first time seeing that method. Thanks.
Thanks, I'm a fan of you videos as well!
Outstanding job mate! The front wing looks like the new axis spitfire……but you were first. 👍
Great design and great music
You do beautiful work.
wow! what a beautiful piece! awesome craftmanship! it looks like a p51 mustang fighter plane.
It looks more to a Spitfire to me with the elliptical outline :)
@@lomicwind you might be right.
Really great project good work !!!
Excellent video, like the music too.
Nice job!
Most efficient Hydrofoil... turn out to be just a spitfire
Amazing , What a Perfection !, all the best .
Can the hydrofoil be adapted for a kayak?
I’d be interested in airfoil selection, shape selection, sizing, for both main wing and canard, how to decide on/set stall incidence for canard as well. Composites are such awesome materials.
I am as well I’d love to design one of these from the ground up in cad and test in ansys fluent
I'd love to build molds to duplicate a high-performance model for mass production. I was in aerospace tooling, carbon fiber and epoxy; this would be so fun to duplicate by the hundreds.
What's that track playing at the end video?
Great video. Thanks.
Very interesting, well done.

Thanks for the message, seems like we share the same love for plywood and potential of hand shaping.

What is that slit in the beam for? (seen at 4:54)
Edit: NVM, I got it is a mounting point of the vertical foil-shaped mast.
thanks dude to show up your back kitchen and than see your creation. 👍
Wonderful job!

Как это круто и красиво!!! Удачных вам заездов!!!
Took Mechanical Drawing at the JC. Good Job!
It's essentially a spitfire/hurricane!
dude what a job! i build model airplanes, this blows me away! u need a cnc and 3D CAD/CAM s/w to shape that wood core.
Cool build. Sounds like Alan Watts playing in the background👏 How does it work?
Hey man, appreciate your work, just one question, is the rear stabs flat, or is it like a tear drop shape on leading edge and flat on trailing edge, or flat on leading edge and teardrop shape on the trailing edge. Thanks a lot
The stab is a normal wing foil profile upside down. Flatter side on top and curve on the bottom.

Супер видос,супер музон!🤝🌲🍾🥂
Hey here excellent job !
Would you have tips / info on how to carve the curve of the profil ? Pure feelings or calculation ?
Thanks mate !
pure feeling
4:14 Feet for free?
All jokes aside this looks really gorgeous!
Incredible work! I just have one curiosity: I see all hydrofoils for surfboards have some sort of negative camber/dihedral, what is the reason for it?
Indeed most foils have Anhedral camber to reduce roll stability, helps the foil follow when leaning into a turn.
I think it improves the stability: a downward force is required to compensate for the kite's upward force, so its like an inverse flying plane, the v-shape of a plane serves for a stabilization, so it must be inverse v-shaped
It's about manouverability. Passenger planes have the opposite, upward vee of the wings for stability since they are not overly concerned with manouverabilty. Fighter jets, on the other hand, have wings like these foils with an upsidedown vee because it's all about manouverability - easier to turn. Cheers
thanks for the inspiration
Are you shaping by eye or are you using precisely measured airfoil shapes and angles of attack Etc
all by eye
Dude you just created a SuperMarine Spitfire for the water !!!!
Impressive
that's awesome
does this foil have enough surface area for lake foiling? (wakefoil, dockstart and wake stealing)
Probably not, it looks small. For pumping you want something with around 1700cm2 of surface area and a high aspect ratio.
Very cool, but what materials are actually used, what wood, whats fiber?
Hey there, the building materials are 4mm Plywood, 11oz Unidirectional Carbon, High density filler, and Epoxy.
R. J. Mitchell ( designer of the Spitfire) is smiling down on this
It's a Spitfire!
Hello, could I ask if the material used to make this can be replaced by carbon fiber board? If so, would the cost be higher?
Its a pretty good idea, you could treat the carbon fiber board just like the plywood. The shaping process will probably be tougher, but you might be able to skip lamination and just hotcoat your shape. Could be worth a try if you have Carbon fiber Board.
Thanks for your reply and help@@HANDIY
God bless you Sir,,, 🤙🏼🤙🏼🤙🏼💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼
Excellent! I want to try to replicate what you did. Do you mind being contacted if I have a few questions?
Best of luck! if you leave questions in the comments i'll answer them
красивая работа
Save 1 kg by replacing the wood with foam or dense styrofoam, great work
How did you decide on the shape of the plug?
I molded the mast base that i planned on using into the blank
¡Gracias!
Looks like a spitfire ww2 plane
is it a sail pulling you?
I'm using a kite as propulsion
Шикарный вид!
Can you make a working Manta5 replica,please? 😊
THANKYOU!!!!!!!!!!
but unfortunately I didn't find the details of the process dimensions and step by step work on it, it's too fast
I would like to have one.
Dude, make a mold and let us know where we can buy a production piece out of it.
6:30 запах наверное свежий
eu acho que o mais dificil e subir na prancha e comecar a se movimentar rsrsrs
i know development is hard, please try vacuum without pollution. last part of video is clean
fantástico!
Be interesting to throw a prop on it and see it fly
Barefoot in the workshop? Are you perhaps a fellow Ausie?

Ахренеть!
This isn't a how-to it's a time-lapse
Good point, title changed, thanks for the feedback
@@HANDIY just add a quick audio narration
Perhaps you could hire him to show you how
@@gfdrthjigvtyhnhyg that would be a lang spec oriented. we have to learn from Mr Chaplin
It was implied in the title of the video. No where did it say “how to”, it said “building” learn how to read.
I wonder, can this hurt animal life? I know that surfboards sometimes hurt dolphins.
yes it can
...???
Я думал ты на этом полетишь, а ты поплыл😂
