STARBOARD TAKE OFF
HIGH PERFORMANCE FREESTYLE/WAVE FOIL BOARDS FOR WING FOIL / SUP FOIL / PRONE FOIL • PERFORMANCE FREESTYLE • LONGER & NARROWER = FASTER TAKE OFF • OPTIMAL CONTROL AND BALANCED FLIGHT The Take Off has seen great success and enthusiasm, particularly from our riders in wing freestyle competitions, with Dream Team riders using our latest and smallest Take Off models in a range of events. The 2024 Take Off has been completely redesigned to be a more performance-oriented freestyle wing foil model. A new size range with slightly longer but narrower sizes has allowed us to achieve faster Take Offs and more even flying when at speed. The streamline shape includes a thin nose for faster and more balanced flying, and the cutaway tail creates a narrow pin at the tip for reduced drag in the air and water. The bottom shape features sharp rails with a flat midsection for predictability and recovery in touchdowns from any angle.
TAKE OFF TO THE NEW HEIGHTS
ALL NEW SHAPE / SIZE RANGE
The longer and narrower design gives the Take Off faster liftoff and better aerodynamics for a smoother flight. Featuring a pulled in nose and tail outline with reduced profile thickness.
NEW NARROWER THINNER NOSE
Performance-focused, more manoeuvrable in turns, and faster when flying.
NEW CURVED ROCKER
The rocker is fine tuned for stable flight while being very forgiving when touching down. The rocker is optimized for the best control over the foil without needing to shim your foil.
NEW RECESSED STANDING AREA
For the best possible connection, the standing area recess gives a direct connection to the foil. Smaller models are dug out even further for the best possible control.
FLAT BOTTOM
The smooth release with sharp rail edges and the flat bottom give instant takeoff and are more predictable when touching down.
CUTAWAY TAIL
The cutaway forms a pin tail for better release in takeoff and less resistance when touching down.
NEW BRUSHED DECK PAD
The new brushed deck pad is less abrasive on the knees while offering comfort and grip. The Take Off also features a kick pad for wave surfing.
