Is there anyone in South Africa that rides/has a hydrofoil kite board?

Is hydrofoil the same as closed cell? The
Neo and Matrixx
seam cool because you don't have to pump them up but I have never seen one on the water. Are hydrofoils/closed cell kites a new thing or is a leading edge just better?

Thanks for the link, now I understand. It looks similar to an Air Chair that is pulled behind a boat. This adds a new element and I bet it takes some practice to learn.

They are super fun. Cool twist to lawn mowing and Hard to come by in SA. Careful though when riding, wouldnt want that slicing yourself or someone else. Saw a rider about 2 seasons ago using it. Not seen him in the baan since.
