That’s kind of the feature that is being implemented at the moment
User holds throttle all the time
Boogie will follow the user in a certain distance

In theory I agree.
In practice I doubt someone can seriously claim to properly surf a wave and at the same time keep track of what the tow boogie is doing behind them.
Add one other foiler who can pump to the outside and it is a mess.
This works if all people, who are possibly affected are aware of the situation and agree to it.
If you have people present that do not know or do not agree, its a serious problem.
And how would you keep track?
This has a good chance to completely ruin any foil assist access to spots.
i saw a guy using it in line up with around 20 surfer that was not really aware of the zero tow, the guy surf about 6 diferent day and nothing happen, so please trust me when i say it is working for some one that is aware of danger and do what is safe fore every one your theory is theory but what i saw was real and no accident.
I am not even sure what you are trying to say.
So you have a sample size of one person at one spot on 6 days.
And what is your conclusion from this?
I agree its is not so much of a problem, that it will create accidents every single instance.
That does not make it safe.
I have seen the same when SUP’s entered surf spots.
It is enough, if some people can not handle the situations involved, to ruin it for everyone.
Not saying it should not be done (“follow me” that is, not like I have any say) but to consider the problems in a realistic way.
