Mr Bennetts' latest video. I love how he rides pretty much every foil out there. This time he's on an F-One Eagle 690. Last winter I loved SUP foiling on a Phantom-s 740 and I can't wait for Kaa to start working again and compare that to the Eagle 690 and Sk8 650. I think they're all going to be excellent rides but with different characteristics of carving vs gliding/pumping.
