Frequently Asked Questions
What type of rider is it suitable for?
It is designed for advanced or expert windsurfers looking for a pure slalom foil board, oriented towards racing, speed runs and maximum efficiency upwind and downwind.
Under what conditions does it perform best?
It performs best in spots with medium-strong wind, relatively flat water or moderate chop, but with high-performance foils it also covers light wind.
Is it suitable for beginners in foiling?
No, it's a very technical model, not recommended for beginners with foiling; it's better for riders who are already comfortable with foiling.
What advantages does it offer compared to a freeride foil board?
It offers higher top speed, more efficient early foil start, more stable trim at high speeds and a more direct and responsive feel on the foil.
What size should I choose?
In general, narrower sizes (e.g. 78) are suitable for lighter riders and strong winds, wider sizes (e.g. 91) for heavier riders, large sails and light winds.
