An i see broken foil tracks almost every week...
only as the manufacturers use rubbish longboard boxes and-or crappy install. Done right it’s a strong as DT and similar weight. Using surf boxes and the ridiculous Gorilla glue installs that surfers did a decade ago (that unfortunately a lot of folks still follow) is just asking to fail.
companies like DT as it’s a more simple install to get done by Asian factories.
Combined with a box that’s really easy to mould in big quantities at Cobra.
With most racey foils being DT that’s why it’s prevailed.
people come to me all the time to get tracks put in for adjustability and love the result. Seems a lot of folks want adjustability. I’ll be keen to see if the adjustable Tuttle is strong enough but with Slingshot pulling out of Oz I dunno if we will see much
