Step into Liquid is one of the best movies i've ever seen! foilboards are amazingggggg It looks like the rider is every so gracefully floating across the oceanl! just like he describes at 1:47

Here are my (non-surfer) thoughts on it. The idea of the foil is awesome! However their design is crappy. Right now, you are essentially doing the equivalent of wheeling a motorcycle. You are balancing left/right and forward/backward on 1 elevated point. Obviously that is quite difficult.

What I would suggest is using 2 smaller foils, 1 near the tip of the board, and 1 near the tail of the board. I would also suggest cutting the vertical part of it from 2 feet down to maybe a foot or so.
