Great series of videos. Shows a lot of good and very tight racing. It's amazing how the level of foiling has risen each year. Pozo is a typically windy place with winds this year 25-30 kts. Few ever expected foils to be competitive in these conditions much less matching fin board speed.

Pros take on the windy races at Pozo, foil vs fin, what they learned and more.
"RIWmag interviewed some of the best competitors in both the women's and men's fleet:
Marion Mortefon (BETWEEN | Fanatic / Duotone)
Sarah-Quita Offringa (ARU | Starboard / NeilPryde / Maui Ultra Fins)
Maciek Rutkowski (POL | FMX Racing / Challenger Sails)
Pierre Mortefon (BETWEEN | Fanatic / Duotone / Chopper Fins / Phantom Foils)"
The women ripped, too. Glad they did a highlight spotlighting the great racing. fwiw, Blanca Alabau is a towering 5-6 125 lbs. and was absolutely blazing on a foil. Very inspiring.
