GEAR: NEW MID-LENGTH AND DOWNWIND SURF FOILING BOARDS!

Surf off the radar conditions and waves with boards that increase the huge potential of surf foiling even further!

Surf foiling allows for unprecedented fun in conditions that would be considered very poor for surfing. Which makes you surf evenmore. Today we extend this magical power to uncatchable waves and downwinders.

Three new shapes complete the Lance, Matata, Lemon and Lethal in our range of surf foiling boards:

The NOTW EPS Pro (5’0, 5’3, 5’8, 6’8 and 7’8), the most accessible, is a surf foiling board that’s super easy to paddle for carving.

The Intruder EPS Pro (5'8, 6'8 and 7'8), displaying uncompromising performance, is a board that allows incredible paddling speed.

The Scura in 4'4, 4'6, 4'8 and 4'10, available in several constructions, is a pin tail surf foiling board, radical in turns and easy to paddle. Also available in 5'10, 6'10 and 7'10, only in EPS Pro construction, to score on the smallest days.

Why such large sizes?

Mid-length surf foil boards

We all dream of surfing these perfect but unsurfable waves offered by nature. With these bigger and narrow boards you can surf foil in conditions where only a SUP foiling board would be able to catch a wave.

There are people who love the feeling of taking off with a surfboard. It's very fulfilling: choosing the right wave, paddling, accelerating, getting up, dropping... taking off with a surf foiling board on a swell line that’s barely rising is ultra satisfying.

No need to find your balance standing on a narrow board with the paddle. You can paddle on your belly, wait seated, exactly as you would do with a retro longboard but with flying as your objective and the possibility to connect multiple waves.

A real plus in your quiver: a session saver!!!

Not to mention these boards are just beautiful to watch.

Downwind surf foiling boards

Downwinders on SUP foil are as magical as they are hard to get into for most people. It’s a very demanding discipline (let’s just say standing on a downwind board in choppy waters requires serious skills ;-) ). Obviously it can be learned, and newcomers get into this surreal sport everyday.

We wanted to offer an alternative with downwind surf foiling boards having a high paddle speed, capable of starting lying down for a take off on a swell bump, so that surfers with an excellent paddle technique can downwind without having to learn how to do SUP.

Be careful, we don’t recommend anyone to try downwinder without sufficient practice and experience. You need to be appropriately trained on wind waves and offshore conditions before hoping to achieve a real prone downwind (with one or more safety devices, and never alone).

Fortunately for training, large boards are excellent paddlers and, on windy days, they will allow you to take off on offshore waves, only a couple of hundred meters from the beach, without effort: micro downwinds which are excellent training.

Here are a few recommendations on the choice of NOTW, Scura and Intruder size you need depending on your practice:

If you’re looking for a board to surf small waves or short period wind waves, the mid length boards from 5’8 to 6’10 are ideal for you. Fast when paddling and almost as responsive in flight as a small board, it's great.

If you want to do micro downwinders on waves/wind bumps, the mid lengths from 6’10 to 8’ will be perfect.

If your goal is to do prone downwinders (once well trained, fine-tuned, and with the necessary safety devices), you will need to opt for at least the sizes 7’8 and 7’10.
