The present disclosure relates to an elongated member for a hydrofoil, to a hydrofoil with such an elongated member and to a board equipped with such a hydrofoil. The elongated member comprises a front end for affixing to a front blade having a front lift ratio and a rear end for affixing to a rear blade having a rear lift ratio in such a manner that the front blade and rear blade face in a same direction, and the rear lift ratio is greater than the front lift ratio. The elongated member further connects with an end of a post in such a manner that the front blade is further from another end of the post for connecting to the board than the rear blade.

1. A hydrofoil comprising: a front blade having a front lift ratio;a rear blade having a rear lift ratio, the rear lift ratio being greater than the front lift ratio;a post having first and second ends, the first end configured for connecting to a lower surface of a watersport board; anda substantia
1. A hydrofoil comprising: a front blade having a front lift ratio;a rear blade having a rear lift ratio, the rear lift ratio being greater than the front lift ratio;a post having first and second ends, the first end configured for connecting to a lower surface of a watersport board; anda substantially inverted L-shaped elongated member comprising a front end affixed to the front blade and a rear end affixed to the rear blade, the front blade and rear blade facing in a same direction, the elongated member further connecting with the second end of the post in such a manner that the front end is lower than the rear end and the front blade is further from the first end of the post for connecting to the board than the rear blade, wherein when the post is attached to the lower surface of the board the front blade is disposed in a plane lower than the rear blade. 2. The hydrofoil of claim 1, wherein a front blade lift is less than a rear blade lift. 3. The hydrofoil of claim 1, wherein the front blade generates, when moved in water a lift that is less than a weight of the board and a rider thereon. 4. The hydrofoil of claim 1, wherein: the front blade and the rear blade are substantially parallel; andthe rear blade is closer to the board than the front blade. 5. The hydrofoil of claim 1, wherein: the front blade and the rear blade have inversed shapes. 6. The hydrofoil of claim 1, wherein the post is connected to the elongated member between the front blade and the rear blade at a position corresponding to a gravity center of a rider of the board on which the hydrofoil is to be affixed. 7. The hydrofoil of claim 1, wherein the elongated member connects the front blade and the second blade in such a manner that when the hydrofoil is moved in water, water flowing around the front blade does not affect the lift generated by the rear blade. 8. The hydrofoil of claim 4, wherein the rear blade is at least 5 cm closer to the board than the front blade. 9. The hydrofoil of claim 1, wherein the front blade, the rear blade, the elongated member and the post are made of any of the following materials taken solely or in combination: composite material, machined aluminum, casted aluminum, extruded aluminum, fiber glass, plastic reinforced with fiber, and thermoplastic. 10. A board for watersport, the board comprising: a top;a bottom;a post having first and second ends, the first end connected to the bottom;a front blade having a front lift ratio;a rear blade having a rear lift ratio, the rear lift ratio being greater than the front lift ratio; anda substantially inverted L-shaped elongated member comprising a front end affixed to the front blade and a rear end affixed to the rear blade, the front blade and rear blade facing in a same direction, the elongated member further connecting with the second end of the post in such a manner that the front end is lower than the rear end and the front blade is further from the first end of the post for connecting to the board than the rear blade, wherein the front blade is disposed in a plane lower than the rear blade. 11. The board of claim 10, wherein a front blade lift is less than a rear blade lift. 12. The board of claim 10, wherein the front blade generates, when moved in water, a lift that is less than a weight of the board and a rider thereon. 13. The board of claim 10, wherein the post is connected to the elongated member between the front blade and the rear blade at a position corresponding to a gravity center of a rider of the board. 14. The board of claim 10, wherein the rear blade is at least 5 cm closer to the board than the front blade. 15. The board of claim 10, wherein the front blade, the rear blade, the elongated member and the post are made of composite material.
