Any suggestions on a foil that powers out of turns, something that really drives and slingshots you out of a turn ?
I haven't ridden anything more lively that the Armstrong 725 for that , very quick and efficient,but high stall speed and maybe not the easiest to ride.

Most of them do that Code Unifoil Armie Axis etc etc. Controlling the power and speed is the key.
Code s series are awesome on waves, r series for dw.

Anything with higher AR does it well ( 9+) , loads up in the turn then accelerates out of it, lower aspect wings turn easier but don't have the projection energy out of a turn

Code fits that bill.
However my GoFoil GT foils cranked crazy turns back into the pocket and they were AR6ish. No hard fast rules for foiling yet, too new.
I think driving out of a turn can have a lot to do with the way you execute the turn. I've been playing with turns that are effectively the same as pumping - getting up high on the mast to initiate the turn and driving down and through the turn just like the push off of a pump. You rocket out of the turn with a lot of speed
