i caught these photos leaked a few weeks back, .... i just got the ok to leak them.... a new foilboard by comp tech marine.

i only know of a few features, but here's the highlights.

The T-bar comes apart at the bottom of the strut, and is a 'bolt-through' design. This means that it's easy to assemble/disassemble, still as strong as before, and will all pack easily into your board bag.

A new board that is compression molded, specifically designed for foil boarding. I don't know if any of you have tried this before, but all of the previous boards have been hand shaped, and i've seen a lot of boards break.

the other beauty i know about (because I ride the sit downs) is that you can change out the wings to all kinds of combinations to fine tune your style of riding (making it quicker, or more stable, etc..)

this thing will be a light wind, an up wind, and a speed machine (even in heavy chop)...

this isn't a commercial. I love riding the foils, and am excited about the new stuff!!!

Flow bindings... This means we have to wear snowboard boots?
