It would seem conditions of late have been rather good for SUP foiling in some parts of the UK. At least that’s what we’re told and what we’re seeing from the accompanying pics.
Whilst you can, of course, fly in good waves (albeit with a bit more skill) foiling actually makes those lacklustre days, such as when it’s small and junky, all the more fun. All you need is a bit of ‘push’ from the wave, a spot of technique, and you’re flying. Having risen above the water you then don’t even need the wave to keep on forming, instead the foil humming along with just pulse energy keeping you up.
NCW likes to see its wetsuits in as many watery scenarios as possible. We’re not just (and have never been) only about surfing. Every other type of moist activity is ripe for North Coast Wetsuits rubber.
The 2021 NCW Gulf Stream, front zip 5/3mm wetsuit is warm, flexible and applicable to all manner inland and coastal water shenanigans. You just have to decide what it is you want to do whilst wearing one. Hit the product link below for more info.
