Frequently Asked Questions (Q&A)
What is the difference between Union Carbon and Union Carbon Apex?
The Union Carbon Apex uses 14mm ultra-high-modulus carbon for maximum stiffness; the Union Carbon maintains a 16mm construction, balancing high performance with increased versatility.
Is this compatible with Cabrinha 2026 foils?
Yes, it is fully compatible with the new generation Union Connection system and the Prestige and Fusion wings.
Which size should you choose?
The 78cm is ideal for surf foiling and downwind, while the 84cm offers more clearance and stability for freeriding, freestyle and kite foiling.
What materials are used?
High modulus pre-preg carbon with integrated SS316 inserts for stiffness, precision and durability over time.
Does any special maintenance need to be done?
No, just rinse with fresh water after each use and periodically check the tightness of the screws to maintain a stable connection.
