Two years from the last post...
...I am a teamrider of Moses today
and Moses is doing strong like most of other producers. The foilboarding is visible booming! So happy to be an active witness of this boom.
New VoRace will be launched this summer! And it looks like a real racing machine.

It's a pleasure of opening these boxes, bags and see how all was secured against damages.
Don't afraid to state that Moses has reached the Apple's level in the foilboarding industry in this field - I guess because of the SAB involvement :yourock:
For example - check out how the ends of foil were secured in a simple and cheap way:
I'm going to keep this plates for future travelling.
Foil's bag - made of thick foam, with extra padding for the fuselage,
and a pocket for protection bags for the wings and the drift.
T20 board and its bag:
The bag is made of the same thick foam as the foil's bag. There is another pocket for protection bags.
My beauty set for freeride, jumping, fun: T20 & Silente with 425 wing.
The foil might be nicely protected by these:
A bit of goofy picture
A cap and T-shirts stay in the same company's flag colour: red, white and black.
Moses promotes these colours. Have you notice any difference in price of the same foils in different colours?
T-shirt is made of unknown to me material. Very pleasant in touching. It looks like a mixture of thick lycra and neoprene
The board is 2,2kg. The foil 2,5kg. The strapless set less than 5kg
My precise scale is kaput so couldn't check the dry set weight exactly.
The straps must weight less than Moses stated (460gr) - I guess there are 100gr each.
It would give impressive score for the strapped foil set - deadweight of 5kg!
Anyway - it is much, much lighter than racing sets which are usually 2-3 kg heavier.
I get to the beach at noon:
Tested three front wings FR425, FR450 and High Performance wing for the first time.
Difference in performance are easily visible.
Need to spent couple hours more with these three wings and GPS to present my findings.
Now I can only say one thing. The High Performance wing is
the must for the guys who's already got Silente FR425 or 450.
Couple of pics from the ride:
