STARBOARD ABOVE FOILBOARD

Mid-length range designed for smooth, lightweight wingfoiling in light winds. Longer, narrower outline for early lift-off and a stable, comfortable ride.

The Above Foilboard represents the synthesis of the Ace Foil and the Take Off , with a mid-length design that combines the speed of a downwind board with the maneuverability of a wave board. From your first glides to the most radical turns, the Above range supports every stage of your foiling journey with balance, control, and stability. The larger sizes offer comfort and ease for beginners, the intermediate sizes support progression, while the smaller sizes are ideal for wave riding and advanced prone foiling.
