AFS Silk Foil
100% wave riding foil designed for surf foiling and wing foiling on waves, developed to offer maximum fluidity from foam to the most powerful waves.
Each front wing in the Silk range is designed specifically for its own program, with progressive planing entry, high control and an extremely soft feel underfoot.
Strengths
- Dedicated wave foil: optimized behavior for wave surfing and winging in wave conditions.
- Great smoothness and fluidity of curves, ideal for clean lines and continuous carving.
- Profile that ensures powerful section hold and control even in the steepest parts of the wave.
- Three sizes (650 / 850 / 1050) to cover light, medium and heavier riders in all conditions.
- One-piece UHM Carbon construction with integrated fuselage for maximum rigidity and precision.

Size guide – choosing the size
| Model | Recommended use |
|---|---|
| Silk 650 | Foil designed for top surf foilers and very lightweight riders. Excellent for wingfoiling on waves in medium to strong conditions, also suitable for wave and tow-in kitefoiling. |
| Silk 850 | Designed for experienced surf foilers and wing foilers in intermediate wind and wave conditions. Also suitable for freewave kitefoiling. |
| Silk 1050 | Ideal for experienced wave riders looking for performance in lighter conditions, both in surf foil and wing foil on the waves. |
If your focus is pure foil surfing on waves with good thrust and a light/medium rider, you can opt for the 650 or 850; for more frequent outings and maintaining ease even with less power, the 1050 offers the best compromise.
