The Lemon enters the lineup

Inspired by the “cool & performance” program of the Lemon wing foil board, the Lemon surf foil board is extreme in its dimensions yet harmonious in its shape. Its very “lemon” shape provides width at the shoulders for efficient paddling while maintaining a very narrow tail, aided by its wingers. The rails and tail feature classic bevels, offering thin rails that give this board a clean and smooth line.

The Lemon is lively, fluid, and yet reassuring. It is the ideal board for beautiful sessions, the one that guarantees an enjoyable experience because everything matches perfectly. It allows for early drops, limitless carving, easy pumping, effortless tricks, and no drag in turns. Perfection!

The iconic Lethal and Matata in outstanding new shapes

A common evolution in these new shapes brings a new distribution of volume that redesigns the lines of these best-selling models in the lineup. This includes the new nose bulb that provides tolerance in touch-downs, paddling speed, and instant pop-up in landings.

The Matata is your board for mushy conditions where you want to be able to turn around in a second to catch a breaking wave in front of you, exit the wave, and pump to connect. Its shape is characterized by its compactness to facilitate pumping and reduce inertia in maneuvers. It is narrower than in 2022 for increased glide and fewer touch-downs. It is very short, with a buoyant tail: perfect for reducing inertia and pumping endlessly.

The Lethal is a narrow board with a thick tail, the ultimate recipe for immediate takeoff. It is the board for dropping in on the biggest sets and unleashing rail-to-rail maneuvers. The new bulb on its nose has allowed for a lowered deck level at the foot position while maintaining the same volume. This shifted volume at the nose brings you closer to the foil with a lower deck under the feet, resulting in enhanced control and responsiveness. The improvement is significant, and you immediately feel confident maneuvering radically on this narrow board.

With the introduction of a quasi-winger on the top rail, L’ours has shaped a perfectly flat deck on the rear third, extending to the rail. This allows the toes to act on the same plane as the other foot pressure points. The foot spreads out and interacts with a consistent deck, making it easy to gauge impulses. This deck shape is inherent to the narrowness of the Lethal but provides a true paradigm shift in drive.

Additionally, there is a new size available with the introduction of a 4’2″ model.

New EPS Pro technology

In addition to our full sandwich FSP Pro and FSP 2X technologies and the EPS technology for strapless boards, we are introducing a new, unprecedented EPS Pro technology specifically designed for surf foil boards! It is a culmination of everything desirable in a surf foil board, lightweight and uncompromising, providing responsiveness and dynamism.

This technology is instantly recognizable and truly lovable at first sight.

Double entry boxes on all our new boards

We offer all the new boards in this lineup with our double entry US box system to accommodate the SCS (Smart Connection System).

Installing your foil with this system is incredibly easy:

Place your top plate facing the four entries.
Insert the foil into the box.
Slide it back to your desired position.
Screw it in, and you’re ready to go!

When it comes to disassembly, you can leave the squares and screws on the top plate. Simply loosen the screws slightly, remove the foil, and you’re good. It’s a plug-and-play solution that makes adjustments quick and saves you maximum time in the water!

New Velvet Traction Pad

Our new surf foil boards are equipped with our ultra-grippy & comfortable 5mm thick Velvet Traction Pad. This new pad has a velvety touch and covers the entire usable surface of the top. It eliminates the need for waxing your board. It provides excellent comfort while paddling, with a grip on your body that prevents the board from slipping or getting away in choppy conditions. It protects your board from unfortunate knee impacts during takeoffs. Additionally, it avoids the small edges that could potentially come off over time.

Getting started with the Lance

If you want to start in surf foiling, the Lance FSP 2X is a reference and will be perfect for you! It’s the ideal board for beginners to easily start and progress. Its paddling comfort is essential when starting out, whether it’s for take-offs or getting back to the lineup after flying 300 meters towards the beach.

Its shape is designed to offer great tolerance. The relative length and volume distribution provide excellent paddling comfort. Additionally, the pronounced double concave on the front third of the board channels water for improved paddling and prevents sticking. The beveled rails make it easier to handle during duck dives and forgive mistakes during take-offs.

If you want to start in surf foiling, the Lance FSP 2X is the most accessible model in our range.
