The ultimate Wing Surfer.
The Lethal is 2000% surf.
Finesse, glide, and maneuverability at levels previously unknown, the Lethal revolutionizes surfing with a shape fully optimized for high-performance wave riding.
Slightly longer, thinner, and narrower, it offers a glide that blurs the line between gliding and flying. You can hit the whitewater at full speed with complete confidence. The same goes for big airs and committed carves: contacts with the water are no longer an issue and become part of the wing surfing game.
We wanted a board that glides effortlessly, with total fluidity and no interruptions: the new Lethal delivers 100% on this vision.
No more need for overpowered winging either, as this insane glide allows you to get going so early that you can ride with small foils and wings effortlessly. Sessions feel light and perfectly fluid.
Its huge reduction of 4 cm OFO nose allows for smooth carves with absolute control and minimal bulk. With a perfectly refined shape and reduced OFO nose and tail dimensions, the Lethal offers total control to surf legendary waves like Punta Preta, as well as linking turns and airs together in everyday conditions.
Its slim profile ensures direct contact with the foil, providing precise support and instant responsiveness.
The design of the hull outline is special, featuring a round pin tail in contact with the water—the most effective tail in aggressive waves! This is a key element of the board, which stems from top-level competition with Malo Guénolé, and has no limits.
This is the narrowest board in the range for its volume (with the exception of the Cruzader line). Even sharper than its previous version, it gains glide at takeoff. It's striking! Less width and slightly more length means more off-the-foil speed, fewer touchdowns in turns, less drag when hitting the water, and more control in extreme angles. Its pointed nose makes it very sharp in direction changes, such as top turns. This radical outline makes it the reference board for high-performance wave riding.
The almost flat rocker on the rear third maximizes glide, for windsurf-like planing starts. The nose is noticeably higher than on a freestyle board, providing all the clearance needed to handle steep waves.
The flat hull on the rear third is 100% focused on glide, offering maximum lift for ultra-easy and quick takeoffs, even with a smaller foil. Thanks to its optimized design, you can reduce the front wing area by 200 cm² while maintaining the same takeoff capability. The double concave at the front channels water flow, making touches and landings smoother and painless.
A flat and round pin tail on the hull enhances glide, reduces bulk in turns, and delivers explosive takeoffs. The tight rocker at the tail ensures optimal water glide before takeoff while keeping some curve to adapt to wave slopes. Touchdowns when surfing are no longer an issue, becoming a natural part of surfing, whether in big landings for pros or while learning tricky moves like a re-entry over the whitewater: just set the board on the water at the critical moment and secure your way down the wave. This new Lethal does it perfectly.
Straight and sharp rails at the tail give the Lethal more glide, similar to a windsurf board. The sharp edge increases glide and release, making takeoff easier. In the center, the rails are less vertical. At the nose, they are very softened on the front third, providing more comfort while surfing. You can ride in contact with the water, without any abrupt braking—a top feature for surfing.
The nose bulb is slightly larger to balance the board's volume and improve stability when at a standstill. The double concave under the nose, coupled with the bulb and narrow outline, makes any touchdown completely painless. Instead of slowing down during nose dives, the Lethal will bounce off the water and come on foil again immediately. It’s truly incredible when landing jumps or for airs in surfing. This absence of punishment encourages trying new moves and will help you progress very quickly
Technical sheet
Buying guide
For advanced to expert riders. The Lethal is a technically and physically demanding board. Even though it is easier than previous versions at the same volume, especially during takeoff, a good overall skill level is needed to appreciate it. It is a pro model.
Surf all types of waves with incredible performance and impeccable control.
The Lethal will be perfect with foils of the H range, preferably with the Fluid to match its rhythm, then a Curve.
The Curve H: the combo of maneuverability and lift. It is the queen of carving and low end (which doesn’t mean it can’t pick up speed!). It is also the most comfortable for pumping, allowing for numerous connections without burning out your thighs.
The Fluid H: the combo of maneuverability and speed. Perfect for making tight turns, going fast, gliding, and having a very responsive foil. With a very powerful pop added to that, it’s a foil that can truly go anywhere you want, both in the water and in the air!
Being more oriented towards freefly than surfing, the Veloce front wings would be secondary choices:
The Veloce H: the combo of glide, speed, and carves. With these qualities, it is a machine for freeride and long carves, freefly, and downwind. With it, you can glide and connect bumps without limits with unparalleled fluidity. It has a great acceleration capacity on the wave and a low stalling speed, making it easy to fly in all conditions.
The Veloce HDW: 100% glide with a ratio of 13+. Fully focused on endless gliding, the Veloce HDW is the queen of downwind and fast pumping; it also excels in light winds with its infinite acceleration and formidable upwind capability.
Combinations:
Ideally, we recommend pairing a Curve H stabilizer with your Curve H front wing, as these two elements are designed for the same purpose and optimized to work in perfect harmony.
However, you can also tailor your stabilizer choices to your preferences. A Curve stabilizer on a Veloce FW will give you a foil that’s carrying, maneuverable, relatively fast, and has excellent glide. Pair a Fluid stabilizer with the Veloce FW, and you’ll have slightly less maneuverability but much more speed while maintaining a strong front foot. Put a Veloce stabilizer on the Veloce FW, and you'll experience the ultimate glide, with a very smooth feel.
Size:
The ideal size will depend on your board, skill level, weight, spot conditions, and front wing.
We’ve calculated all stabilizer and front wing pairs so that, for example, an M is ideal with an M in all models.
But you can also play with the size:
Note that instability can also be an advantage—for pop, of course, and for surfing to some extent. The positive side of instability is its reactivity. It's up to you to decide if that’s what you’re aiming for.
Equipments
2 US GONG Double Entry boxes for standard foil plates equipped with 4 screw + nuts (9cm center distance). Compatible with our SCS system. This new system allows ultra-fast assembly, without having to unscrew nuts completely, of GONG foils and many other brands (our boxes are standard). (Inserts SCS not supplied with the board).
7 x 3-hole footstrap inserts to optimize your position.
1 x large light double V-shaped front footstrap and 1 x large light rear footstrap (screws included).

Leash plug to never lose your board.
Automatic vent screw.
*2 extra holes on each insert block are hidden by the pad, but already drilled to allow for more extreme stances. In other words, inserts have in reality 5 holes by default, of which only the three central holes are visible. Exception for the Stunt, where the three most setback holes are visible.
