Dave West | Foil Drive Team Rider
Share
The Foil Lord himself! Dave West is a Prone and Downwind foil shredder from the Sunshine Coast, Queensland, Australia.
Personally I feel like Dave kinda burst onto the foiling scene pretty quicky with his very raw, honest and straight talking reviews, tutorials and rapidly progressing riding. His Youtube video style is very "everyday guy likes foiling and wants to help you learn and like it too" kinda vibe...
You can see a huge range of Foildriving videos from Dave on his YouTube Playlist here!
Dave can rip on a Foil Drive Prone board setup in the waves!

Dave's first visit down to Foil Drive HQ in Adelaide, Australia.
While his first FD powered Downwinder didn't quite go to plan, it could have been a lot, lot worse!
Struggle street
The video that he is very well known for and the one I finally went "ok enough's enough, lets chat with this guy" was his raw and quite brutally honest thoughts on learning to down wind foil.

ANy advise on initial starting up would be appreciated
