New Foiler needs advice

Post by Winger »

My chiropractor has a place on cowichan lake and would like to take up foiling.
Any advice on foil size, where to buy, board type & size. Any used starter gear??
Thanks in advance!

Can’t go wrong with the slingshot system - relatively inexpensive and used stuff around.
