This award goes to one foil in particular because creating the perfect foil is an art, and Armstrong Foils deserve to win, hands down!

Best Male Surf Foil of 2022
I don’t think this one will come as a surprise to anyone, Adam Bennetts claims the top spot as Best Male Surf Foiler of 2022! For several years now, he’s taken his professional surfing skills and turned them to the foil. His foil surfing is quite simply next level, making the most radical turns look like a walk in the park. I know for a fact that Adam is the reason that many shortboarders have given foiling a try, and that’s not an easy thing to do! Credit has to go to Ben Taylor for always capturing the best aerial footage!
Congratulations, Adam, a well-deserved win! Stay on your toes though, that was a seriously close result and the competition is only getting tougher…
