I've spent countless hours over the years trolling the internet, watching every video of shaping, design and construction I can possibly find. And what strikes me is how radically different he is. No one else is doing what he's doing.

Great interview, I totally agree with durability being more important than having the lightest weight.

Balz is such a great embasador for wind sports. Thanks so much for sharing the stoke and information. I ride sabfoil and agree the 799 is awesome and the 999 completes the quiver.
@murraybruce3802 Жыл бұрын
Hey Ted. I’m interested in the 799 and 999. I weigh 180 and have my jibes down but not tacks (yet). Think the 799 may be too unstable for me? In the San Francisco Bay there are lots of days of 18 mph + winds. Thanks for your thoughts. I use a SabFoil 950 with a 370 stab primarily now.
@DamienLeroyYouTube Жыл бұрын
The 799 is an easy and stable foil to use, Kelly (which you may have seen is quite a few of our videos) loves it, and she’s got her jibes down and now working on tacks. wingfoilprocenter.com/collections/foil/products/sabfoil-wm799-front-wing-medusa-799

to be Swiss he is very nice and open, however he is absolutely right about everything: pro winger, board that weighs 10 kg, average front appearance and easy and fun equipment; Fifty-year-old Sunday winger, super light full carbon board rigorously under its own weight, front with a very high aspect and sharp as a Japanese katana; and it does nothing, in fact it complicates life by always blaming the equipment

Question: what is the order that I should learn tricks in? I am eager to learn but I don’t want to overprogress in some areas and not others.
@radiculo Жыл бұрын
we all love the crazy overhead rotations, but don‘t underestimate the dancing/carving flatwater moves.. so starting with carving then sliding 360 variations to eventually jump frontside 360

Easily one of the best, better than 90% of all foilers, gets all his stuff for free, worries more about durability and longevity than weight and trend.

This foil has washout which any designer worth their salt would include. Many of these foils ignore the basics of fluid dynamics.
