Pump foil boards

Q: Which board should I choose for Dockstart?

We have two types of boards: the pocket 4&#39;0, which is a perfect board for beginners and those looking to improve their skills. It will also allow you to do other activities such as wakefoiling, kitefoiling, or tow-in.

Q: What size board for starting out in Dockstart?

To start, a board that&#39;s around 1.20m long is perfect. It will give you a little room to position your feet, even if you&#39;re not very precise.If you&#39;re comfortable pumping, we recommend the mini pocket 3&#39;3&quot; which is 97cm long; it offers lightness, pumping efficiency, and rigidity. It will be slightly less forgiving of impacts.

Q: What volume of pumping foil board should I get?

A board around 15L is ideal for pumping with ease. It&#39;s perfectly possible to use a 4&#39;2&quot; Superfly foil surfboard with 32L, but pumping will be slightly less efficient. The lower the volume, the more compact and lighter the board.

Q: What's the best spot to start foil pumping?

To start pumping, you need to find a pontoon that isn&#39;t too high and has few obstacles so you can run safely without getting your foot caught on a cleat, for example. Rowing pontoons are very low to the water, making it much easier to get going. If you don&#39;t have this type of pontoon, start from one in a harbor. If the pontoon is very high, choose a longer mast; if the pontoon is short, choose a shorter mast, which will generate less drag.If you are comfortable you can start from the beach or even from a ladder to get more depth, you will have to adapt your technique, because you will not be able to run, you will have to launch the foil with a single push on the feet so that it can generate lift.

Pump foil board: what makes the difference

In Pumping, the board doesn't serve to float: you take off directly in flight from a dock. What matters is rigidity, lightness and a short format. A board that's too flexible deforms with each stroke and you lose energy. A board that's too heavy or too long adds inertia and tires you faster.

Which foil to pair with your board?

To learn dockstart, the High Aspect 2000 wing is the simplest: it's the one in the beginner Pumping kit. The Pumping Foil wings form a performance range: the 2200 is suitable if you already come from foil (Wing foil, Surf foil, Kite foil) and heavier riders, the 1750 as well, and the 1500 is for experienced Pumping riders and lighter riders.

Pumping parawing: one board, two practices

Keep the Pump Board 80 V2 and the same foil, and add a parawing as soon as a little wind picks up: you alternate Pumping and navigation, without needing a larger board.

Getting started with dockstart

Choose a low and clear dock, push hard at the start, pump hard on the first 4 or 5 strokes then more gently, and look ahead. The whole method is in our tutorial dockstart in Pumping, step-by-step method, and the complete guide in Pumping: the guide to get started and progress.

Our Pumping boards and wings are designed and tested in Brittany by Bruno Sroka and his team.

Quel spot pour débuter le dockstart ?

Cherchez un ponton bas et dégagé, sans taquet sur lequel vous coincer le pied : les pontons d'aviron sont idéaux. Si le ponton est haut, privilégiez un mât plus long ; s'il est bas, un mât plus court génère moins de traînée. Toute la méthode est dans notre tutoriel dockstart.
