"I watched the videos and had my first outing today. I had a few controlled flights and a few good crashes. I used the information in the videos to help figure out what was working ... Thanks for all the tips, I’ll be watching as I go through the stages. Looking forward to Cascade mountain lake foiling this summer."

"I'm a long-time windsurfer who is thinking of giving foiling a try, but didn't want to buy a bunch of expensive equipment without learning a bit more about the "learning curve" first. Foil Academy is a great format and gave me a good feel for the difference between foiling and standard windsurfing, a good idea of the additional skill sets needed to foil successfully, and a detailed overview of the equipment needed. I especially appreciated the tutorial videos about the step-by-step instruction for beginners to the more advanced lessons on set-up and jibing. Thanks so much for the course … I really appreciate the efforts to share your experience with "newbies” and the free tutorial format. Cheers and happy foiling!"

"Super cool course on how to get up and going AND keep improving your foil technique. Super stoked that these guys are prepared to share their knowledge. I had my first runs on the Slingshot Wake foil on the weekend and (yes, stoked!) and it is clear that their years of experience have paid off in bringing a really well rounded product that is easy to ride and progress on, to the market. Love your work Slingshot! Keep 'em coming."
