The show is story based while tying in conversation that encourages listeners to learn, progress, and find their flow in foiling. We’ll be choosing from and interviewing a diverse group of guests who are an authentic representation of fun, growth, & creativity within the broad foil community across all hydrofoil disciplines. The goal is to build more community, bring new riders into the fold, and keep things light, funny and interesting. Each show will start with a story, then we’ll break it down and have a discussion with some questions. THAT’S NOT ALL! We will also be including short stories from listeners (you!) and wrap up each episode with something we’ve learned and can work on, whether it’s physical technique, equipment, or mentality.
Between 2 Foils - The Case for Powered Foiling - Manta Takeoff Evo
The Manta Takeoff Evo Foil Motor has way more than enough power to pop up on foil on flat water using a sinker board. The motor is maintenance free (a quick fresh water rinse after your salt water session) and packs about 35kg of thrust , ~4.7HP at 3500W. At about 105kg, I was able to get on foil on 56L sinker board with no issues, using the 5th gear (of 10, about half power).
The system is very versatile, and can either be mounted to the bottom of your board or you can carry the battery in a backpack for a more lively board feel. The 3 blade prop can be mounted to just about any mast out there in a few minutes. An accessory of the integrated mast is an option as well, with adapters to fit most major foil brands. My normal 5'4 KT 56L prone board worked great, don't feel I need another board, and certainly don't need a trench board. Looking forward to try the backpack option as well.
Manta Evo has several interchangeable battery options as well, with a combo of Air 97W battery (comes in packs of 2) or the Endurance Battery 518W. So you can go from super lightweight and less ride time, to a bit heavier and more ride time. And you can fly no issues with up to 8 sets of 2 Air batteries - hand carry the batteries thru TSA.
Basically, I went from about 5-8 good waves from an unpowered hour+ prone foil session, to 20+ waves for a powered 45 min session. Still have a bit of dialing in to do, but I know my ride time will increase as I try different boards, foils, and stop falling so much.
