SABFOIL Sea Devil 840 Full Set – Modular 2-in-1 Hydrofoil + Kraken Mast 83
The SABFOIL Sea Devil 840 Full Set is a compact and responsive 2-in-1 modular hydrofoil, complete with a Kraken 83 mast, designed for light to medium wind conditions in wing, kite, surf, and SUP foiling. It offers two configurations in one set: control and stability with the stabilizer mounted, and extreme agility and direct feel in raw mode without the stabilizer.
The self-stabilizing profile, full carbon monocoque construction without a fuselage, and reduced wingspan make the Sea Devil 840 the most aggressive and "nervous" foil in the Sea Devil range dedicated to light wind, ideal for lighter riders or those seeking dynamic riding in more challenging conditions.
Main Strengths
- 2-in-1 modular hydrofoil: Tail Mode (with stabilizer) and Raw Mode (without stabilizer).
- Compact and responsive set for light to medium wind (approx. 12–25 knots) and multi-disciplinary foiling.
- Self-stabilizing profile that simplifies control, even during the learning phase.
- Full carbon monocoque construction without a fuselage: less drag, maximum rigidity, and precision.
- Kraken 83 mast included, fully compatible with the modular Kraken platform.
- Excellent for wave, freestyle, freeride, light downwind, SUP, and surf foiling with great maneuverability.
Usage Modes: Two Souls in One Foil
Tail Mode – With Stabilizer
- Smooth control, directional stability, and greater forgiveness for errors.
- Ideal for progression, easy riding, light downwind, and sessions in variable conditions.
- Allows for optimal utilization of the self-stabilizing profile's lift while maintaining precision even at high speeds.
Raw Mode – Without Stabilizer
- Explosive carving, ultra-fast transitions, and a direct, surf-like feel.
- Greater freedom of lines, perfect for advanced riders who want a more aggressive ride.
- Particularly fun for wave, creative freestyle, and kite foiling with small sails.

Frequently Asked Questions (Q&A)
Is the Sea Devil 840 suitable for beginners?
In Tail Mode, with the stabilizer mounted and the 83 mast, the Sea Devil 840 can also be used by motivated riders in the learning phase in light to medium wind, offering stability and rapid progression.
When does it make sense to use Raw Mode without a stabilizer?
Raw Mode is designed for intermediate to advanced riders who want maximum agility, tight carving, and a very direct feel for wave, freestyle, and kite foiling with small sails, sacrificing some stability for increased freedom.
What are the main differences compared to the Sea Devil 1040?
The Sea Devil 840 is more compact and responsive, designed for lighter riders or more challenging conditions; the 1040 offers more lift and facilitates flight in even lighter wind, with a slightly more "easy" and smooth behavior.
