Dave West Reviews the Cypher Parawing Foilboard
Dave West recently took the Amos Shapes Cypher Parawing foil board out for an extended test run, and the results surprised even him.
In this video, Dave shares his experience riding the mid-length Cypher board in real-world parawing conditions. He explains how the compact design helped him get more out of strong wind sessions, and why this setup has made the best days on the water even better.
“It’s changed how I think about my gear,” says Dave. “The Cypher is fast, controlled, and lets you push harder in challenging conditions.”
He breaks down:
-
Why the Cypher’s shape and volume work especially well for downwind runs.
-
How the setup performs in strong wind and bumpier water.
-
What tweaks he made to dial in his ride.
