Hydrofoil / Race-Kiting

Hydrofoil and Race Kiting

Hydrofoil and Race Kiting is a new trend in kite sport. Because of the extra-long fins of the race board or the wing of the hydrofoil, the board is being lifted out of the water and the friction between the bottom of the board and the water surface will be eliminated. This in combination with a high-performance kite makes it possible to kite even at only 5,5 to 6 knots. It takes some kiteboarding skills but with hydrofoil and race kites, you will be able to kite at days with low wind, when conventional kites, even large twintips, do not allow you to go on the water.

FLYSURFER – everyday is a KITEDAY

Challanging in light wind. As low as 5,5 knots make you go on a Hydrofoil or Race Board. Every Day is a Kiteday with the right gear.

Also the velocity on the water in relation to the wind direction can be much higher and you can go upwind on a much wider angle. Because of these advantages, hydrofoiling and race kiting becomes more and more popular.
