Dave Kalama discuses the E3 boards, foiling and downwind best practices
I caught up with legendary waterman Dave Kalama to talk about all things foiling. Dave shares his knowledge about foil boards including construction, design, weight, size, and more. We also talk about foiling techniques and skills, as well as his lineup of the Kalama E3 Performance foil boards. These are his newest designs for SUP downwind foiling, Wind wing foiling and SUP foil surfing. I’ve been using the E3 model 6′ and it’s a big improvement over the custom that Dave shaped for me in 2018. We get into the nitty gritty details and if you’re into that then I think you’ll like this interview.
