- Designed for performance freeride boards and pure foil boards, ideal for everything from fast freeride to freerace.
Strengths

- Fun and playful, also appreciated for freestyle foil maneuvers thanks to its excellent agility.
Technical features

- Fuselage: CNC machined aluminum, extremely rigid connection to the base and front wing.
- Wings: pre-preg carbon with foam core, excellent strength/weight ratio.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is the NeilPryde Flight FR suitable for beginners?
It is an accessible foil but designed primarily for riders who are already confident in foiling: it requires good basic technique and is ideal as an upgrade from a slower entry-level foil.
What is the difference between Flight FR and Glide Wind HP?
The Flight FR has a higher aspect ratio, faster fuselage and wings designed for freeride and freerace, while the Glide Wind HP prioritizes ease and control for those who want a more docile foil.
Can I use the Flight FR on traditional freeride boards?
Yes, it is compatible with high-performance freeride boards and dedicated foil boards, as long as the foil box and base are compatible.
Which size to choose: 80 (1130) or 90 (1300)?
The 80 size offers more control at higher speeds and in strong winds; the 90 provides more lift and power in light to medium winds and for heavier riders.
What wind range does Flight FR cover?
With the 80 and 90 front wings it covers an indicative range of 10–35 knots, depending on the sail used and the weight of the rider.
Does any special maintenance need to be done?
It is recommended to rinse with fresh water after each outing, periodically disassemble the foil, and grease the bolts and seats to prevent corrosion between aluminum, steel, and titanium.
