Hydrofoiling in the Columbia River Gorge

Columbia River Gorge wind sports have continued to evolve since wind surfing became popular in the 1980s. Hydrofoiling became the rage when the technology dominated the 2013 America's Cup competition. Today, there are hydrofoils all over the Gorge, some propelled by kites, some by inflatable wings and stand-up paddleboards that ride the Columbia's swells like a surfboard. Hood River's experts show us the excitement and skill of this innovative new sport. Subscribe to our channel for new OPB videos every week: https://www.youtube.com/opb?sub_confi...
