A foil to catch the fast but not yet powerful swell far from the shore?

Yes these are much the same as my conditions, we just get more tide, but the low tide small and rapidly deep to shallow makes for tough foiling. I usually find myself on something like bottom left of your low tide clip, or surfing once the tide pushes in and there is a reform.

My experience in similar setups (deep then shallow) is that the waves don’t slow down enough, and then they suddenly break. This is riding AFS 750 Ultra dw foil (equivalent to Code 770R), and Silk 850 (similar to 810x), both of which can go fast enough, but that is going mostly straight, and then kickout as it breaks.

The problem becomes you can only go straight. Not that fun. The key is finding sandbanks where you have waves breaking and then backing off, or a deep channel.

Agree with these points, but smaller is usually faster which is important

I have a nice library of related books on the topic.
