Kite hydrofoiling is an exhilarating water sport that combines the thrill of kitesurfing with the smooth gliding sensation of hydrofoiling. There are several reasons why this activity is considered so much fun:

1. Flying sensation: When you lift off the water's surface on a hydrofoil board, you experience a unique feeling of flying above the water. The hydrofoil's design allows you to ride with reduced drag and increased efficiency, making it feel like you're soaring effortlessly through the air.

2. Speed and efficiency: Hydrofoiling offers incredible speed and efficiency compared to traditional kitesurfing. The hydrofoil's underwater wing generates lift, reducing drag and allowing you to reach higher speeds using less wind power. This speed combined with the sensation of flying creates an adrenaline-pumping experience.

3. Smooth and silent ride: The hydrofoil's design enables it to glide over the water's surface, eliminating the choppy and bumpy ride often experienced in regular kitesurfing. The absence of water resistance and the reduced contact with the water result in a smooth, silent, and almost surreal ride.

4. Extended riding conditions: Hydrofoiling expands the range of conditions in which you can kitesurf. With a hydrofoil, you can ride in lighter winds that would be insufficient for traditional kitesurfing. This allows you to enjoy the sport in a wider range of locations and weather conditions, increasing your opportunities for fun and exploration. Combined with either Duotone Juice or, even lighter and more efficient Duotone Juice D/Lab you can head out in as little as 6 knots.

5. Challenge and progression: Kitesurfing hydrofoiling presents a new learning curve and challenges even experienced kitesurfers. Balancing on the foil and learning to control the lift and speed requires skill and practice. As you progress and master the technique, you can experiment with different manoeuvres, jumps, and tricks, providing a sense of accomplishment and continuous growth in your abilities.

6. Connection with nature: Being out on the water, harnessing the power of the wind, and gliding above the surface establishes a unique connection with nature. You can appreciate the beauty of your surroundings, feel the wind in your hair, and enjoy the freedom and tranquility of being immersed in the elements.
