Getting hooked on foiling
The Foil Shop was born out of a love for water sports. We were (and still are) stand up paddlers, kitesurfers, windsurfers and surfers. So when a new sport came along, well, we had to give it a try. We got totally hooked on foiling!
Foiling is such a different feeling to other watersports. Flying so quietly over the water is really quite magical. It lets you get on the water more and have so much fun in conditions that you previously considered barely worth going out in. And the joy of learning a totally new sport just brings out the grommet in you.
