Soloshot3 foiling winter-session in Copenhagen

Postby alsbirk » Sun Jan 14, 2018 8:50 am

I am pretty amazed about soloshot 3. Very easy to set up and almost perfect tracking, despite a few glitches of bad focus. I had a blast despite the cold weather in my home spot Amager Strandpark.

Thanks guys!
Yes my car was parked right upwind of the Camera so therefor no wind shakyness.
Went diving for my wing today but it was simply too cold, I will wait until spring :-D We had freezing temps today. Luckily I had another one with me yesterday, bigger one that made the foil more stable at low speeds in manouvers etc, but a little less stable at high speeds.

Is it the telephoto 65 Soloshot or the wider angle 25?

Nice one!
Whenever I come your way I will check out that spot if wind direction is suitable.
Looks like it may only be an option during winter time?

My human camera/phone operator was shaking a bit more... well, 2C air/water... no surprise:



And my 'soloshot' phone is not following me for some reason:



Cheers,

Wow! Some beautiful riding in both of your videos. I'd love to be that smooth on my foil one day 8) . I must learn the 180 to toe side next.
