Description

Take advantage of a discount on these reconditioned wings. As the finish was not perfect, these wings, which had minor aesthetic defects, were put aside by our quality control. But to offer you a wing with a nice look, the coat of varnish has been replaced by a veil of black paint.Note however that the internal construction and the shape remain strictly identical, only the finish changes.More about our approach: read this article.

Program  

Fly faster, pump faster, drop furious DWs, without degrading handling.

Presentation  

These front wings with high outline ratio and minimal thickness are clearly geared towards speed:


  • In surf foil and SUP foil: you surf faster, you connect the sections and you pump much faster with less effort.
  • In kitesurfing: it's the perfect compromise between the speed of a racing foil and the very powerful handling of a surf foil.
  • In wing foil: you go much faster and stronger than with a classic surf foil, without degrading maneuverability.

This incredible glide is found in the pumping phases, in the relaunches, in the accelerations and in Vmax where we see an amazing difference. You go faster, stronger, with a very responsive foil.


It's clearly on the edge of a kite foil, but it still has the fabulous maneuverability of a surf foil and double the lift of a typical kite foil. However, it's not an exclusively speed foil. The profile remains super docile and forgiving. It's ideal for committed transitions.


In the waves, this speed gain allows you to pump less because your natural speed is already crazy. It allows you to make the sharpest turns because speed is the basis of all maneuvers. The airs are monstrous and landing them is much easier without this excess surface area of the big front wings. We are less overwhelmed by the foil, so we can push harder.


In downwind, these front wings work wonders because their speed is completely in phase with the offshore swell, which is not slowed down. The glide is crazy.


To understand the range: The Veloce with a moderate ratio and the Veloce T with a higher ratio.


The Veloce front wings in sizes XS-T, ST, M, L, XL, XXL offer a very high level of performance, particularly in terms of speed.


The Veloce- T front wings, called T for Tall, are placed between the standard sizes, therefore: MT, LT and XL-T. They have a higher ratio which allows you to have the speed of the smaller size and a lift close to the larger size. Indeed, they take the chord and the thickness of the size below but with more wingspan to increase the ratio. The Veloce- T are therefore more racy, faster, and intended for foilers who want more performance than in Veloce. This is typically the shape you choose when you like the Veloce but want to push your performance further.


Beyond this even more stretched ratio on the Veloce T, the outline has been refined on the tips. The outer third offers less surface area to boost the maneuverability of these fast front wings. The rail to rail is much more progressive than on the classic Veloce, which focuses on optimal lift. Roll control is also boosted on the Veloce T.

Foil Front Wing Veloce-T V1 - Black Carbon / M

Buying guide

For whom?

You need to be a bit of a beginner as this foil is not as forgiving at low speeds as beginner foils are.

You have to go fast and he flies very fast. So you have to keep up physically and technically.

For what ?

It is clearly a foil intended for very high performance in registers where speed is the key.

What size?

The Veloce MT has a wingspan of 78cm, 1050cm2, and a volume of 0.71L. The surface area is small with a very thin profile of 1.4cm thick.

  • In surf foil: less than 70kg in normal waves and less than 95kg in size waves.
  • In wing: less than 70kg or very good level and sustained wind.
  • In kite foil: less than 95kg.


Which quiver?

With a Veloce, an aluminum mast or a carbon V2 are sufficient because the wingspan of these front wings is moderate in small sizes. But it is obvious that with an HM you will gain a lot of stiffness. Essential if you are really powerful in the turns or on large sizes, an HM carbon mast will allow you to transmit 100% of the forces to the front wing. The gain in stiffness and dynamism is incredible.

When surf foiling, you can use any board from our range with the Veloce, but for more maneuverability, a performance board like the Matata or the Lethal will be perfect.

Same for front wing, it can adapt to everything but it is more in the tempo of a short board.

In downwind SUP foil, it will work perfectly with a Cruzader which will allow you to pick up a lot of speed to get into the swell before takeoff.

Foil positioning?

For beginners in GONG foils, place the plate in the middle of the US rails in front wing and in the front third in paddle start.

The further you move it forward, the more it raises the board. The further you move it back, the more the nose of the board dives.

Be careful not to move it too far forward. We often tend not to let the back foot work, especially when coming from the kite foil. However, moving the foil back a little forces you to put more weight on the back foot and gives a more harmonious attitude and reduces the effort.
