Surf Foil Board Scura FSP Pro
Program
The Scura FSP Pro is the fast paddle surf foil board, smooth in carves and strappable, designed for early take-offs, holding steep angles, and carving with style, control, and power.
Introduction
The Scura FSP Pro is the surf foil board that puts paddling speed, glide, and carving at the forefront, with the added control of straps and the durability of a full carbon/glass sandwich construction.
Its elongated and streamlined shape offers an excellent balance between paddling comfort, early take-offs, maneuverability, and powerful lines. It steps away from the compact shape universe to offer a more fluid, consistent, and stable feel, while maintaining enough liveliness to remain highly performant underfoot.
Its teardrop outline concentrates width where it truly matters: at the heart of the board, close to the shoulders when paddling and just at the heel of the front foot. This generous yet moderate width provides stability under the chest, comfort during take-off, and control in the footwork, without burdening the extremities. The front and rear one foot off remain thin, limiting inertia and giving the Scura a permanent sense of lightness in flight.
The Scura is made for wide and committed carves. Its thin and pinched tail allows for very steep angles without touching down too early. You can push hard on the foil, hold a line, extend the stance, and carve with great freedom, without the board's width blocking the movement.
It's a board that is surfed less in pivots and snaps than a pure compact: it favours beautiful carves, long stances, high average speed, and clean trajectories.
In the FSP Pro version, dedicated strap inserts for surf foil stance add a real dimension of control. The straps position the feet correctly, allow pushing and pulling on the board, improve pumping, limit footwork errors, and facilitate recovery from mistakes. The Scura retains its fluid style but allows for more aggressive carves, steep angles, airs, and towed uses.
The thin and elongated nose retains just enough useful volume at the shoulders to maintain paddling stability. The nose bulb enhances comfort under the chest, compensates for the lowered deck, and helps to stand up cleanly on an already formed slope. The Scura thus maintains real efficiency at take-off, with fast and healthy glide across a wide range of waves.
The stretched rocker at the front optimises paddling speed and glide, while the longer, more progressive, and smoother kick tail complements the overall length of the shape. The Scura does not seek a brutal re-pop: it favours continuous, clean, and fluid glide, with an attitude akin to a pin tail shortboard in surf foil.
The double concave hull at the nose channels flows and softens water contact. The flat hull around the foil maximises glide, paddling speed, and pumping efficiency. The shape remains stable when touching down, encouraging harder pushes and more engaged carves.
Faceted rails reduce hull surface without losing the necessary surface for overall balance. The pronounced chines run far along the board to keep contacts away, maintain healthy glide, and provide leeway in significant angles. At the rear, the rails remain thin and deeply tucked to free up carves and allow for hard carving without touching down too early.
Its pumping is efficient, smooth, and natural. The thin tips limit inertia, while the length provides consistency and smoothness in glide. The Scura allows returning to the peak, reconnecting on the set, and extending flights with fewer interruptions than a very compact board. It loves distance, speed, long stances, and established trajectories.
Constructed in FSP Pro full vacuum carbon/glass sandwich, with high-density PVC foam on the deck, hull, and rails, the Scura gains in rigidity, responsiveness, and durability. This construction supports powerful stances, steep angles, heavy landings, strapped, towed, and intensive uses, while maintaining ultra-precise handling.
The new 5 mm Ridge Traction Pad provides very secure grip on essential stance areas, with firm hold and real comfort underfoot. The Scura comes with a front pad and a tail pad attached, while the separately offered boomerang intermediate pad allows connecting these two areas for those who want a continuous grip surface.
The Scura FSP Pro is the board for riders who want to paddle fast, take off early, carve cleanly, hold steep angles, and trace their lines with style, while adding the control of straps and the durability of full carbon/glass sandwich. An intuitive board by its glide, performant in its stances, and capable of going further both strapless and strapped.
OUTLINE
The outline of the Scura is designed with a water drop logic: volume and width at the core of the board, then thin ends to limit inertia. The generous but not excessive wide point is positioned close to the shoulders when paddling and just at the heel of the front foot, where it truly provides comfort, stability, and control.
This distribution results in a board that is fast when paddling, stable under the chest, and very reliable at take-off, without unnecessarily loading the nose or tail. The front and rear one foot off remain thin, giving the Scura a light feel underfoot despite its length. It glides, carves beautiful lines, and remains lively in changes of pace.

NOSE
The nose of the Scura is narrow, sleek, and light, with just the right amount of useful volume at the shoulders to maintain paddling comfort. It complements the length of the board without creating unnecessary bulk at the front, allowing for glide while keeping the board elegant and stable in the air.
The nose bulb places volume where it truly matters: under the chest. It compensates for the lowered deck in the stance area, improves paddling stability, and helps to stand up cleanly on an already formed slope, without unnecessarily thickening the pressure zone.

DECK
The lowered deck creates a concave cockpit in the stance area to bring the feet closer to the foil. The footing is more readable, more direct, and more precise, with a true connection to the wing in long curves as well as in rhythm changes.
On the Scura, this connection provides a smoother rather than explosive ride. Pressure is applied progressively, lines are held, curves are extended, and control is maintained at steep angles. The placement remains natural when strapless, with a clean and consistent feel underfoot.

Hull & rails
The narrow hull of the Scura prioritises glide continuity. The double concave at the nose channels the flow and softens water contact, while the flat hull around the foil maximises paddling speed, pumping efficiency, and a consistent glide sensation.
The deeply inset faceted rails reduce the hull surface and minimise contact in turns. The pronounced chines run far along the board to maintain a healthy glide, visually and mechanically refine the shape, and allow for steep angles without the board touching down too early.

TAIL
The thin and pinched tail is one of the keys to the Scura's behaviour. It significantly reduces rear bulk and allows for taking very steep angles without touching down too early. You can push hard, maintain support, and carve long lines without the tail width blocking the trajectory.
The kick tail is longer, more progressive, and smoother than on compact shapes. Its more advanced break complements the overall length of the board and avoids unwanted contact in big curves and during pumping. The Scura seeks less of a brutal re-pop and more of a continuous, fluid, and clean glide, akin to a shortboard pin tail feel but in surf foil.

Buying guide
For whom?
The Scura FSP Pro is aimed at advanced to pro riders who want a surf foil board that paddles fast, feels fluid underfoot, and can hold steep angles with clean carving, long curve radii, and an engaged surfing style if desired, with the added control and durability of full carbon/glass sandwich construction.
In larger sizes, it can be the board for a motivated beginner with a strong progression curve, perhaps through good surfing experience. They will find the Scura easy to start with but very compatible with their reading and desires.
It suits those looking for a longer board with more glide and consistency than a compact shape, without losing the precision needed to push hard in turns. Its wide point placed at the heart of the board provides comfort under the chest and stability at take-off, while its thin tips limit inertia and maintain a true sense of lightness in flight.
The Scura FSP Pro can be ridden strapless or strapped. Strapless, its main advantage is structural solidity and integrity: a more durable construction for those who charge hard, put a lot of stress on their gear, or want to handle more powerful landings, impacts, and intensive use.
Strapped, it adds a very clear dimension of control. The straps require placing your feet correctly and setting your foil well, allowing you to push and pull on the board, improve pumping, limit support errors, and facilitate recovery from mistakes. In paddle surf foil, it requires a real level of skill as you need to manage strapping in during take-off. In tow or wake, it's much more natural: you strap in before the rope tension, then immediately benefit from the control.
The Scura appeals to riders who love to draw beautiful lines, hold their stance, maintain average speed, return to the peak with pumping, and surf with flow. It is less about pivoting and snapping than a pure compact: it favours wide carves, clean trajectories, long supports, and significant angles. In FSP Pro, it simply allows you to push this style further, with more control, more solidity, and more margin in support.
To avoid if...
The Scura FSP Pro is not the best choice if the main goal is to have a very compact board, very explosive in pumping, made for short snaps, tricks, airs, or a very abrupt and breakneck style.
It is also not the most logical choice if the rider is looking solely for a very easy, very voluminous board with a lot of tolerance at low speed and ultra-assisted paddling. The Scura remains a performance board: it glides fast, starts early, but requires a minimum of reading, timing, and placement to exploit its potential.
In paddle surf foil, the straps add a real constraint at the start. They become incredible once in flight, but you need to know how to strap in properly, stay calm during the take-off phase, and accept a more technical and less natural gesture than strapless. For a rider who primarily wants ease in paddling, strapless freedom, and a board easier to manage under the chest, the Scura EPS Pro might be more suitable.
If the goal is to pump hard with the minimum length underfoot, a more compact shape will be more suitable. If the goal is to surf with more consistency, more distance, higher average speed, and smoother trajectories, the Scura makes perfect sense.
For what?
The Scura FSP Pro is made to paddle fast, start early, hold long curves, and push hard in angles without the board touching too early. Its thin and pinched tail releases large angles, while its very tucked-in faceted rails keep contacts away and maintain healthy glide when the board returns to water contact.
It excels in waves where you want to draw a real trajectory: gain speed, set a long support, hold the line, carve cleanly, then head to the next with smooth and natural pumping. Its elongated shape brings consistency, while its thin tips limit inertia to keep a lively board underfoot.
Strapless, the FSP Pro mainly brings more solidity and structural integrity. It's a relevant choice for those who like the Scura's behaviour but want a construction capable of handling more intensity, impacts, powerful supports, and repeated use.
Strapped, the straps change the potential. They lock in supports, improve pumping, secure foot placement, increase precision, and allow for more aggressive curves, large angles, airs, rotations, powerful landings, and towed use. The Scura retains its natural style but with superior control and much more margin when pushing hard.
The Scura allows transitioning from a performance surf foil approach to a feeling closer to mid-length depending on the chosen size. Smaller sizes remain very performant and precise. Intermediate and longer sizes offer more comfort, paddling, and versatility. Larger sizes allow surfing small waves, wind waves, weak swells, or softer lines with more glide, and starting in deeper water to pass the foil.
It's the board for riders who want style, speed, angles, and clean trajectories. It maximises the pleasure of gliding without becoming sluggish, with fluid, engaged carving and a real ability to extend flights by reconnecting on the series. In FSP Pro, it adds the control of straps and the durability needed to push this program further.

What board size?
The choice of size depends on weight, level, spot, wave type, main use, and desired style.
Smaller sizes, from 4’4 to 4’10, are for riders who want a more nervous, precise, and high-performing Scura in classic surf foilable waves. They favour large angles, liveliness underfoot, and engaged carving while maintaining the Scura's clean glide DNA.
Intermediate and longer sizes, from 5’4 to 5’10, provide more paddling, comfort, and efficiency in small waves, windy days, or less powerful waves. They approach a mid-length surf foil program, with more distance, consistency, and easier glide installation.
For strapless use, the volume choice remains close to that of the Scura EPS Pro: enough volume to paddle efficiently, little inertia to fully enjoy the shape. The difference mainly lies in the solidity, structural integrity, and durability of the FSP Pro construction.
For strapped paddling use, you need to retain enough volume for comfort under the chest, successful take-offs despite the straps, and not make strapping unnecessarily complicated. A board too small can lose part of the Scura's interest: its glide, consistency, and ease in setting up in the trajectory.
For towed use, you can choose more radically, as paddling is no longer the issue. The volume can be more oriented towards control, large angles, powerful carves, airs, and landings, provided you keep a size consistent with your weight and level.
An advanced rider will choose a volume that retains enough stability under the chest to paddle efficiently, position properly, and start early. An expert or pro rider can reduce volume to gain liveliness and reduce inertia, but without forgetting that the Scura's interest also comes from its glide, length, and consistency.


Refer to the size chart to choose the appropriate volume according to weight, level, and usual conditions.
In paddle surf foil, if hesitating between two sizes, favour the larger one for more paddling comfort, early start, and glide in weak or irregular conditions, especially if the straps are mounted.
In strapless, the choice can remain close to that of the EPS Pro, with the FSP Pro as a more solid and durable option for riders who charge hard or put a lot of stress on their gear.
In towed use, the most radical size can be more easily justified if the technical level follows, as the start is assisted and the program focuses more on control, aerials, large angles, landings, and manoeuvres.
Which foil?
The Scura will be perfect with the Curve H, Fluid H, and Veloce H ranges.
Each of these high-performance wings has its strengths on which development has been particularly focused:
The Curve H : the combo of manoeuvrability and lift.
It is the queen of carving and low range (which doesn't mean it can't rev up!). It's also the most comfortable for pumping, allowing for many connections without burning your thighs.
The Fluid H : the combo of manoeuvrability and speed.
Perfect for tight turns, going fast, gliding, and having a very lively ride. Add to that a very powerful pop, and it's a foil that truly goes wherever you want, in the water or in the air!
The Veloce H : the combo of glide and versatility.
It's a freefly and downwind machine. With it, you glide and connect bumps without limit with incomparable fluidity. It has great acceleration capacity on the wave and a very low stall speed, making flight easy in any circumstance.
The Veloce HDW : 100% glide.
To be even more focused on the infinite glide program, the Veloce HDW. The queen of downwind.
The Sirus : wings with the ultimate ratio to fly longer than anyone else in marginal conditions and dock start
Which stabiliser?
Example: Preferably, we recommend pairing a Curve H stabiliser with your Curve H front wing, as these two components are designed for the same program and optimised to work in perfect harmony.
General guidelines on choosing stabiliser sizes:
The preferred size will depend on your support, level, weight, spot conditions, and also your front wing.
Which bag?

Which leash?
A short leash, 5’ and 6 mm is sufficient in small waves. A 6’ of 7mm will be much safer as soon as it gets bigger. It's your life jacket, you must wear it to protect yourself and others. It is imperative to renew it every year as it wears out.
Equipments
- 2 GONG Double Entry US rails compatible with standard foils equipped with 4-bolt plates and T-nuts, with a 9 cm spacing. The Double Entry system facilitates the insertion of T-nuts and allows for quick foil mounting, especially with the GONG SCS system. SCS T-nuts not provided with the board.
- 8 strap inserts with 5 holes each, positioned for an asymmetrical surf foil stance in regular or goofy. No symmetrical V strap mounting like in wing: here, the placement is dedicated to surf foil, with an offset optimized to load pressure, maintain power, and keep natural stances in turns.
- 2 light straps delivered with the board to immediately exploit the strapped potential of the Matata FSP Pro: superior control, locked-in pressure, aerial maneuvers, committed landings, and towed use.
- Front stance angled at 30° to offer powerful, natural, and precise support in turns, landings, and strapped pumping phases.
- Rear strap positioned clearly toes side, with front inserts slightly closer to the rail to create an open angle forward. This placement facilitates surf stances, knee tuck, and entry/exit of the rear foot in cool or pumping phases.
- Deck pad Ridge Traction Pad 5 mm in three parts : front pad and tail pad glued from the factory to cover the main support areas, optimize weight, and maintain a direct connection with the board. The intermediate boomerang pad is available separately for those who want a continuous grip surface.
- Automatic depressurization screw to regulate the internal pressure of the board and protect the EPS sandwich construction from temperature and pressure variations.
- Concrete Fixed leash plug at the tail to secure the board with a leash and reduce the risk of loss in surf.
