Yes i did, but im not a expert, it was my first time on a foil. Got it to fly quite easy, didnt have to pump too much, but because it was my first time on a foil it felt quite a "funky" up there, maybe i had a too powerful sail for first foil attempt (9,3 Loft SB with 8-13 knots of wind).
I did only few runs with it, it felt quite a scary up there . But my buddy who also did use foil first time, spend like 2hours with it and manage with foil better than me, it took like 20mins to sort it out how to fly with it.
There is some info on a Z-Foil FB page www.facebook.com/zfoils/
Foil himself felt very well build, stiff and rigid has hell.

Hey Margo, Sounds fun. What type of board were you using ? Will this brand and type of foil be available here in Australia ? What is RRP in Europe ? Cheers Richard

We did use Formula board with it. As i understood it is all ready available to order. Normally here in Estonia if we like to order from Z we just call to mrZ himself but i think you will get answers if you email them directly http://zfins.eu/contact/
Here is my buddy going to foil for a first time

Hey Sean, Was Arnon using an RRD H Fire Pro 91 cm with the foil? If not what was it ? Thanks Rich
