Downwind foiling for paddle and/or wing.
This downwind SUP foil board provides exceptional stability, glide and paddle speed for easy, early take-offs. The sloped, concave deck shape helps convert paddling power into forward momentum. Its unique flat bottom section under the standing area ensures stability, while the rounded nose and sharply beveled tail deliver smooth touchdowns and efficient flight engagement. Built in our most advanced S-TEC technology, the board combines super low weight with the stiffness and quick response of this high-performance carbon construction. New tracks make foil assembly easier, and the mirrored foil positioning scale on the EVA pad ensures precise placement for enhanced control.
Apart from the importance of the shape features, the next essential characteristic of a good downwind board is keeping it as light and stiff as possible. Low swing weight and stiffness for a direct response are essential. Here we decided not to cut any corners. We offer the board exclusively in our most advanced high-end S-TEC construction. Precise CNC cut core is wrapped in a full PVC sandwich with lightweight Biax carbon and additional UNI-directional Carbon patch covering the length of the standing area as well as the mirrored bottom area supporting the foil. A special method of lamination is used to achieve a pre-preg resin-to-fiber ratio. This creates a feather weight Triax carbon PVC sandwich shell for the ultimate in composite board construction.
To further enhance the weight saving, we opted for a brushed-off topcoat covering the carbon. The faded painted nose and tail rail area with bright and fluorescent colors are there for visibility and safety at sea.
The updated track system makes foil setup faster and easier than ever. Large openings let you drop the plate nuts directly into the tracks, slide them into place, and tighten. Removing the foil is just as simple – loosen, slide back, and lift off. All boards come equipped with four standard plate nuts for perfect fit, load distribution, and secure thread engagement. The mirrored positioning scale on the deck EVA pad allowing you to know exactly where your foil is placed in relation to your back foot position while the fine corduroy pad ensures grip and comfort.
