Drifter 5
Pro Carbon.
Wing (Flatwater, Wave, Freestyle), Foil Assist, Beginner (Prone, Surf, Sup)
The Drifter 5 evolves toward slightly longer and narrower proportions to improve glide, efficiency, and take off. This refined direction allows the board to accelerate faster in lulls and gusty winds while maintaining a stable and balanced standing area in choppy water. Ideal for riders looking for a wider user-friendly platform. Our signature yet subtle aero nose reduces windage, cuts through chop, hides volume, and helps with water starts without sacrificing overall balance. With redesigned bottom contours, rail transitions, and volume distribution, the result is a compact, stable, yet efficient and playful foil board that remains balanced and versatile.
Colors: Available in Neon Blue on Marble Silver with Black logos. Ultra-light high-durability thin enamel paint finish, for lighter weight and improved sealing.
DESCRIPTION
The Drifter 5 has been redesigned around the idea that a blend between glide and stability unlocks foiling progression and more days on the water. This sleekest Drifter to date improves take off by offering low-end stability to settle into your stance from kneeling to standing and helps the board stay planing, planted, and controlled when conditions are messy. Using our signature yet subtle blend of aero nose and rails improve airflow, reduces windage and hides volume while the standing zone remains direct, supportive, and stable. This balance makes the Drifter 5 an ideal choice for riders who want a board that feels forgiving and easy to stand on the water, yet responsive and engaging once up on foil.

HIGHLIGHTS
Feeling.
Speed.
Agility.
Significantly faster and more efficient than previous shorter wider boards and Drifter models. Easier to balance and redirect cross-wind than longer narrower midlength shapes. Compact and responsive with minimal swing weight through jumps, carves, turns, and jibes.
Shape.
Slightly longer and narrower outline than previous Drifter Series. Subtle aero nose keeps the board feeling compact and thinner in the standing area relative to its volume. Subtle double concave displacement bottom contours and overall foam distribution prioritizes stability through the standing area and balances the board from nose to tail for smoother carving and transitions.
Bottom.
• Subtle double concave displacement hull blends into tri-plane bottom chines. • Flatter hull contours offer stability and a softer, more predictable feel on touchdowns. • Harder defined tail chines and edges release instantly for faster take off.
Rocker.
• Reduced entry rocker and flatter tail rocker line for faster acceleration and earlier lift off. • Moderate nose curve to match wave shape, handle steeper drops, and stay composed in surf. • Smooth recovery in light wind and weak swell, stable feel in messy conditions, cleaner rebounds on touchdowns with less sticking.
Rails.
• Almond shaped rails through the nose creating aero efficiency, the aero nose shifts volume forward in a subtle way that helps the board rise and balance during kneeling starts. • Transition to boxier rails through the midsection for a more supported feel underfoot. • Taper into a beveled tri plane tail for clearance in carves and faster water release. • Improved water flow, reduced drag, and more controlled rebounds on jumps and touchdowns.
