Foil care
Windsurfing foils are subject to extreme loads and forces and should be regularly checked for any signs of wear and tear. The foil used in your board can be seriously damaged by hitting a solid object or the ground. This damage may not always be visible to the naked eye. Never place yourself in a position where the breakage of your foil would make it impossible to return to shore unaided and without assistance. The tip, trailing edge and leading edge of this foil are sharp and can cause cuts. Take care to avoid these sharp edges with your hands, legs or feet especially during water starting.
The different attachment systems provided with the NeilPryde foils, are designed to attach the NeilPryde foils to a windsurf, paddle, or surf board. Due to the fact that there are many different board brands, which have different construction standards that are uncontrollable by NeilPryde, by using the provided foil & base system, the user will not hold NeilPryde accountable for damages that could be caused to the board, or the rider himself, and will use the product at the user´s own risk.
