I have just returned from Sherman Island in California where we had a very successful foilboard racing event. Johnny Heineken won (as usual) with Joey Pasquali and Adam Withington just behind. . There were 17 of us competing and we had a great time with 9 races over two days.
There were also raceboard races on the same days. Although we did not race with the raceboards the winning times were recorded and the foilboards were 1 to 3 minutes faster than the raceboards every day (races were typically 15 minutes.)
Virtually all of the foils were Spotz or Taaroa. There was an assortment of boards with Aguera being the most common.
