Just received the JNJ hydrofoil, cost 450$ Total to my door, mast is solid pre peg carbon from looks at the mast base end, still need to glue the base on. Slapping the High proformance foil on a 4.8 LF rocket. Who cares about the board once out of the water, anyway the rocket is a good indestructible foil board, good size maybe a pound heaver than the Happy, but the foil makes up for the wt issue Carbon is much lighter than aluminum anyday.
As for RND its not rocket science! The tech has been out there for like 100.... years, adapting it to kiteboarding not so hard, and it was not the kite companys that did most of the RND, it was the KOOKs/amatuars board riders, the kite companys copied what they made.
Anyway I think this foil may ride better than my Homebuilt Frankin foil.
We all know almost all of the foils and most boards are made in chinas factorys, most by their design, IN BIG LOTS, which are stamped with whatever brand is buying the lot!
