I wonder how they work in 5 knots or 25 knots, upwind and downwind?

Foil are now correctly operating with a minimum of 8 knots. Some guys are using their foil on the Defi Wind. In particular the guy from HORUE. Defi Wind was over 48 knots average last year 45 up to 66 knots on the course !!!!! you need smaller tail ans smaller sail in strong Wind but it's possible.

This RSX concept is a Slalom and Foil Prototype it can do both !!!
