Windsurfer foil

Kuau’s Giampaolo Cammarota carries his windsurfing rig to shore after a session at Kahului Harbor on Thursday afternoon. Cammarota, who works in the rentals department at Hi-Tech Surf Sports, said the foil attached to the bottom of his board may be the next big thing in water sports. The foil provides support, stability and allows riders to stay longer on waves. Cammarota said that as the foils have become popular, especially with stand-up paddleboarders, they have become difficult to keep in stock at the Kahului store. Cammarota posts a Maui surf report at mauisurfreport.blogspot.com.
