Windfoiling (or foil windsurfing) is a surface water sport that is the hydrofoiling evolution of windsurfing , as well as typical sailing boats and sailing hydrofoils . It uses similar equipment to windsurfing with a normal or slightly evolved rig on a normal or specialist foil board.
Mechanics
[ edit ]
The board has a hydrofoil mounted in the fin box. The hydrofoil lifts the board off the water and enables the rider to achieve improved speeds in light winds due to the reduced drag.[1] [better source needed ]
The foil transmits a hydrodynamic lift force to the board, capable of lifting it out of the water. The goal is to reduce drag and increase performance.[need quotation to verify ]
