Hi, I work for Candela in Sweden. 5cm is not the wave height the boat can handle. 5 cm is the height of the wake the boat produces, so almost no wake. You can go foiling in 1,2 meter high waves in 30 knots - check out this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m7I0pVpnytM&t=8s

Thanks for the clarification. Could you maybe update your product page? As someone who lives on the open ocean (rather than a bay), the first thing I look for is maximum swell or wave height a boat can handle.
