SUP Foil : Flat Water Take Off explained

Eric Terrien

A short tutorial on taking off on flat water with a SUP foil, using a GoFoil Maliko on a Bic SUP board. The chapter notes describe starting with 2-3 hard strokes with weight on the front foot to keep the board flat, then moving the weight over the foil with short, quick strokes or pumps, and easing off the intensity once flying.

Key points

• Start with 2-3 hard strokes, weight on the front foot to keep the board flat
• When lifting, put all the weight over the foil and use short, quick strokes/pumps
• Once flying, reduce the intensity of the paddle strokes and leg pumps
