Q&A – Frequently Asked Questions
Who is the JP HYDROFOIL ES 2024/25 for?
It is mainly intended for riders who want to enter the world of foil with an easy, stable, and intuitive board that doesn't become obsolete after the first few sessions and allows for technical growth. It is ideal for those looking for a first "serious" foil board to use frequently and in variable conditions.
Which size should I choose between 133 and 155?
The 133 is recommended for average weight riders and those seeking maximum versatility in terms of wind and sails, maintaining a good balance between ease and performance. The 155 is the right choice for heavier riders, for those who use large sails and often sail in light wind, thanks to its superior volume and extra support.
Is this board suitable for absolute beginner windsurfers?
The HYDROFOIL ES is designed for foiling, so it is ideal for those who already have a basic understanding of traditional windsurfing and want to transition to foil. An absolute beginner windsurfer might find a traditional freeride board more suitable before moving to foil; however, those who can already plane will find the HYDROFOIL ES an accessible board for learning to fly.
What type of foil is compatible with this board?
The board is foil-ready with a Tuttle box, so it is compatible with foils that use this type of fin box. However, it is always advisable to check the screw length and any foil specifications to ensure correct and safe mounting, as well as maximum performance on the water.
How stable is it during touchdowns and transitions?
Thanks to its volume, shape, and deck design, the HYDROFOIL ES maintains high stability during water contact phases, reducing the tendency to "nose dive" and helping the rider easily resume flight. This behavior makes it very tolerant of typical errors made by those who are learning.
Can I use this board in choppy and wavy spots?
Yes, the stability and overall control allow it to be used in choppy water spots, provided that a suitable foil and sail are paired with the conditions. The board is designed to make foiling comfortable and manageable even when the water surface is not perfect, enabling learning or fun sessions in multiple contexts.
