This is a little video of Lucy's first ever SUP foil session! Lucy is a competent SUP surfer but has never stepped on a foil before. The conditions were perfect with a 1 foot clean wave coming in over a sand bank.Remember that there are loads of ways to get into SUP foiling and this is not an instructional video. Going behind a boat first would be a good introduction to getting up on a SUP foil. But Lucy very much just wanted to give it a go!

  • Go Lucy! Looks quiet tricky but also great fun. Cool that you guys get out on the water together like that. Enjoy!

    Thanks for this video. I've been following the rise of foiling for 3 years , but it was not until I watched this video a few times that I actually understood what it means to get the foil to pop up and 'fly' a person. Thanks! BTW I do notice that while Lucy may never have foiled before, she appears to be a very highly advanced SUP surfer or SUP racer - she has a very fast take off with the paddle, and she is able to paddle in pure surf stance without issues.

    Nice one, I Kitesurf foil, but keen to sup foil too, good to see that nice honest vlog. Cheers
  • "For a second, you looked completely in control!" (I'm gonna steal that.) Nice video.

    This is so cool! Lucy rode that wave so good! My partner and I just preordered our first SUPs, we went with the RED 10’6”, and upgraded to the carbon fibre paddles so feel pretty lucky to be starting out with great kit. Watching this made me so excited to learn with my partner (and I’ve learned so much from this video, like leaning back slightly as you ride over the wave). Do you have more learning vids? Obvs you two are pros, but tips for beginners are always helpful :) I’ll have a look anyway but thanks for sharing your trips, you really inspire us to just go for it!

    I think you did brilliantly Lucy...you're better on a foil on a wave than I am on a normal SUP! What was the other board that you were riding???
  • @ajachild
    Hi you two, I have just bought a 5.5 Gong inflatable Hipe Foil And board at 145liters. Do you think this would be possible to learn to sUP foil on or too short. I have been Supping on a 7.6. Mainly bought to go into wing foiling. But just wondered what you thought of the length to SuP foil? Thanks for all your videos. Love them all!

    Hi awesome! You believe it's possibile also with a Reptile High 2000, 1050×245, area 2000 cm?
  • @drowsy4312
