- After fielding dozens of calls and messages about Chicama, I decided to put this video together. I hope it is useful.

thx Sev!
Hello David. Great information for Chicama trip. I met you briefly in Hood River in July on the streets next to my truck -- I had the Amos KrUzer 36L board with Foil Drive. The tow in foiling looks epic at Chicama. What do you think about taking a Foil Drive to Chicama -- airline travel batteries are coming out soon for Gen2 FD.
Hi. I remember!! Just use the boats. I don’t think your foil drive is necessary. Also, I don’t think the battery will last very long. It is a huge playing field with a long ride out to the furthest break. Just use the boats. Still room on my September 2025 trip.
Where can I find info about the September trip?

How much power do the boats have? For my smallest foil, the lift 70, I need about 30hp. Would be cool to try that foil. Although I think the wave would probably not be steep enough. But still would be fun to try.
HP of motors varies from 25-40. Smallest I have tried has been the Lift 100. I thought it would be hard to get up on, but it was pretty easy.
@@Foiljourney ok, that should be fine. Thanks!
Thanks nice vid.
Any tips on water temps ? Wetsuits?
@@whenitswindy7034 usually 3mm. But a 4mm is helpful for colder months like July, Aug, Sept
Is there a place to rent foil gear in chicama?
