eFoilIng and Wingfoiling
I dip a pumpfoiling board in the water every couple of months for 10-15 times and then I forget about it…

Your first time trying pump foiling

Story of your first try

Found a great deal on a  pre-owned Axis foil that I could also use for wingfoiling (85 cm mast), purchased an Indiana LeDoigt and went to Tiefenbrunnen. Then I realized the commitment/dedication required and reframed my expectations 😎

Objectives

Your objective for this year
  1. Dockstart to 10 solid pumps by June.
  2. Pop-up on SUP foil in flat water by September.

Moving home closer to the lake will hopefully force me to get more at it.
Keeping it real, have no time/aspiration/utility to invest in endurance pumping

Your tip for others

Not qualified to give any advice on Pumpfoiling, but for other foilsports stick to one set of gear until you feel too good for it. Don’t change it because you suck with it.
