Anyone own an ampjet and love it?
Seems like the hype's gone and quite afew for sale second hand.
Yeh I got one & loving it. Have posted about it elsewhere on this forum. Wondering what's making you ask the question/what's behind your question? Happy to share my thoughts.
I got to ride before I purchased so knew what I was getting which helped make decisions about size & foil easier to make.
Had a great session (no jet, just with the blank in) yesterday at a local point break. light onshores with chopped up swell aimed direct down the line of the point. was a bit more down wind style foiling than riding waves. Hoping for the same again this afternoon
There's 4 people down here now with them. A few other crew have the foils but not the boards. One of the guys who bought an amp, when he first got it was wishing he bought a longer one. the flitelab board he bought was shorter & less litres than his previous prone foil board, so there was an adjustment. He stuck with it and loves it now too. I just ask him how's it going & the smile spreads across his face and he can't wipe it off. There was a bit of persistence from him to adjust to riding a smaller/less volume board. The persistence paid off & his foiling was gone from strength to strength with and without the jet. I reckon he has had his since when they were first released. I've had mine since November. I ain't going to be selling mine. Am going to buy a longer one to wing/parawing & downwind with.
