Speed 180 – Highly efficient.

Surf 205 – Fast and responsive to unleash your inner shredder.

The 205 Surf is a highly manoeuvrable stabiliser that enables tight and critical turns in the pocket. This design is derived from the low aspect HS212 (chopped HS232) which dedicated surf foilers found to be the ticket for foil surfing. The 205 builds on that with refinements to the foil section, planform and thickness to unlock the most freedom on the wave.

  • Derived from the HS212 (chopped 232)
  • Developed in conjunction with the new MA foil range
  • New section and thinner profile with more camber
  • Lower aspect for surfing in the pocket
  • Consistent pitch stability

Zippy Acceleration

The foil section is thin but with pronounced camber, decreasing drag while also improving lift, forward projection and acceleration. 

Consistent Pitch

Linear pitch characteristics throughout the full speed range even out front and back foot pressure, minimising lift spikes during acceleration and deceleration on the wave.

Broader Speed Range

A high camber section delivers the perfect blend of lift at low speeds to make getting onto foil easy, yet retains excellent controllability at high speeds.

Specifications:

Area: 205cm2
Span: 344mm
Aspect Ratio: 5.9

Glide 220 – Glide with effortless pumping.

Available in May

The Glide 220 is our stabiliser of choice when seeking the greatest glide and pump over long distances. It caters to intermediate through advanced riders pursuing lightwind winging, downwinding and flatwater pumping.

PRONE/SUP SURF: Rider weight 60kg+ (132lbs+), Intermediate/Advanced
DOWNWIND: Rider weight 60kg+ (132lbs+), Intermediate/Advanced

Flow 235 – It’s all in the name.

The 235 Flow’s name says it all! It’s smooth and predictable, inspiring your confidence and flow.

  • Derived from the much-loved HS232 platform
  • Developed in conjunction with the new MA foil range
  • New section and thinner profile with more camber
  • Higher projected aspect ratio for improved glide
  • More responsive for pumping
  • Consistent pitch stability

How Can I Be Sure My Board Arrives Intact?

Opt for our $99 "To Nearby Airport" shipping option at checkout. It relies on passenger planes, and offers our safest delivery. More far below.

My board made it ...

But no foot straps, fins, or vent plug?

Look closely through the packaging. Fins, foot straps and vent plugs are often concealed in a sheath of cardboard that's easy to discard. Also, check inside the board box, and shake the box to be sure. You'll likely dislodge a small box containing the missing items.
