Here's how to identify your foil version (V1, V2, V3 or micro V3).

Kite foiler with a V3 Titanium fuselage, a Fluid V3 front wing, a Fluid V3 stabilizer and a Fronteira HDCC.

The different evolutions of our foils are recognizable at a glance by the shape of the fittings which allow you to attach your front wing and stabilizer to your fuselage.

Four forms are possible:

  • Square
  • Conical
  • Conical oval
  • Ovalized conical micro-lens (only for the Ypra Race foil)

It's a V1 setup if the shapes of the fittings of your fuselage are square like below.

It's a V2 setup if the front of your fuselage has a square shape for the front wing and a conical shape for the stabilizer.

It can be made of titanium as shown below or of aluminum (black).

It's a V3 setup if the shapes of the fittings of your fuselage are each of an ovalized conical shape.

This type of fuselage is available in aluminium as shown below, but also in titanium or coloured titanium with a wide choice of colours.

It's a micro V3 setup if the shapes of the fittings of your fuselage are each of a micro conical ovalized shape (Ypra Race foils only).

Good to know: to combat obsolescence, we offer hybrid fuselages compatible with masts, front wings, and stabilizers of different generations. For example, the Mat V2 / FW V2 / Stab V1 fuselage or the Mat V3 / FW V2 / Stab V3 fuselage.

It is therefore possible to encounter a case which is not covered above, but you can still identify the versions of your elements using the 4 schematic shapes above.
