AFS Silk Foil Front Wing
Modular front wing derived from the AFS Silk foil, designed for surf foil carving and wing foiling on the waves, with the same DNA as the iconic monoblock Silk but with much greater configuration freedom.
The goal is to offer an ultra-smooth and surfable kite, with a smooth planing entry, great control in powerful sections of the wave and the ability to adapt the setup to different styles and conditions thanks to the modular platform.
Strengths
- Same DNA as the “iconic” Silk, now in a modular version to combine different fuselages, masts and stabilizers.
- Pure wave riding: continuous carving, flowing lines and high control even in steep sections.
- Progressive entry into flight with excellent speed management, from foam to powerful waves.
- High-rigidity carbon construction; screws and covers are included in the package.
- Platform compatible with the AFS modular system, so you can customize the configuration according to the rider's style.
Front wing dimensions
The dimensional data (surface area, wingspan, aspect ratio, weight) vary according to the size chosen within the Silk Foil Front Wing range; all sizes maintain a medium-high aspect ratio and a geometry optimized for wave riding in surfing and wing.
Size guide – choosing the size
The modular Silk Foil Front Wing is designed to cover wave riding needs from light to heavy riders and from medium to powerful wave conditions; the size choice should be calibrated based on weight, wave type, and primary discipline (surf foil or wing foil on waves).
| Usage profile | Indicative measurement advice |
|---|---|
| Lightweight rider, foil surfing in powerful waves | Smaller sizes in the Silk Front Wing range to maximize control and grip. |
| Medium weight rider, wing foil wave all-rounder | Intermediate size for balance between launch, speed and carving. |
| Heavier rider or lighter conditions | Larger sizes to facilitate lift and maintain fluidity in the less powerful sections of the wave. |
If you are looking for a single wing for surf foiling and wing foiling on the waves, orient yourself towards a mid-range size, which guarantees easy starting but remains lively and responsive when carving.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between Silk Foil and Silk Foil Front Wing modular?
The classic Silk Foil is a monoblock foil designed for maximum rigidity and a direct feel, while the Silk Foil Front Wing is the modular version that maintains the same surfy character but allows you to change the mast, fuselage and stabilizer.
Who is the Silk Foil Front Wing intended for?
It is designed for riders who mainly surf foil and wing foil on waves and who want a high-performance modular set-up, with fluid carving and great control in every phase of the wave.
Is it also suitable for non-experts?
It's a kite designed for intermediate and expert wave riders; those new to foiling will be able to make the most of it once they've acquired a good foundation in control and flight management.
What components is AFS compatible with?
The Silk Foil Front Wing integrates into the AFS modular system and can be combined with compatible masts and fuselages, allowing you to customize your setup to suit the spot, wave type and riding style.
What size should I choose if I mainly wing foil on the waves?
For all-round wave use in wing, a mid-range size is generally the best choice because it combines ease of entry into flight, control in bottom turns and responsiveness in cutbacks.
