The Medusa PRO 869-663-395/93 or 83 Foil Set is a high-performance Sabfoil hydrofoil designed for freeride, freerace wingfoiling, and especially power freestyle and wave. It is part of the Medusa PRO line, a natural evolution of the standard Medusa, with more speed, pop, and carving ability for radical maneuvers.
The Medusa PRO 869 front wing is designed for superior acceleration and high top speeds, the Kraken 93 mast ensures a smooth but rigid ride, and the 395 reverse stabilizer offers excellent performance in terms of speed, directional stability, and maneuverability.
