Well done to @marcus_tardrew and @james__casey for the great effort, onya gents !
The video is nice to watch if you got the time and maybe learn some dw foil skill.
I have never done a dw foil and would like to do it someday.

anyone notice james mast and it looks thin and or tapered than the existing GF 28.5 mast. I saw amundsoncustoms are using it as well and theirs is like thin and even longer mast? My perception maybe

Not sure what they ride has any connection to the average punter

To start with Marcus would be 60kg wet, super skilled and very fit with years of dw experience. Pretty sure my 100+ kegs would sink what he rides. Or maybe one for each foot??

Well done to both of them on an epic adventure

People like to know Hilly.
yah I think the new go foil mast is 31 or 32' plate. Not sure if it is the super stiff mast like the 29.5' or the thinner 28.5'. Time will tell.
GF have some amazing stuff in the pipe.

James Casey weighs 85kg so he is no light weight .
