I didn't think I had enough footage to make an edit but last night I decided to throw some clips together anyway.

Here's a quick and dirty edit from Huckfest 2015. Enjoy

Great event! Got to say that it's pretty had to believe that anyone was jumping higher than Adam on the foilboard and Ram Air kite setup.

yeah it makes me kinda wonder if the WOO algorithm is built to still function correctly on something as smooth as a foil.

Also consider that everyone except Adam W. was throwing their boards up over their heads to get the max reading. So him not getting first might have had something to do with that.

Jim, I heard the rumors sparking up all over the place from individuals immediately following the awards ceremony. There is no doubt that when the conditions were light to marginal, Adam had an huge advantage. But as we all figured, once it ramps up, that advantage quickly faded. Suck it up foilers, the TT boys gottcha in the finals fair and square!

I have no skin in the game. I just mow the lawn on a directional. I don't care who won the event. I just want to know how high they were jumping all day. I don't think that the final numbers accurately reflect what people were hucking.... It was a huckfest..... and they have the data

What the heck does this mean Jim? Ain't no logic to it.


Soooo, is the Woo consistently accurate or not? That seems to be the question. If yes, then the numbers dont lie.

I'd just like to know the highest recorded jumps for the day. I don't care who won the last heat. Pretty simple.

The wind steadily picked up throughout the day so the biggest jumps were in the final. Here are the Men's and Women's finals.
