“Starboard Wingboard taking off in your area”
Our aim of the Wingboard is to give you the maximum performance in a small size while catering to your level, from starter to advanced wing foiler.
• You will feel stable before taking off
• And then you will have an easy take off
• The efficient controlled flight will give you high-speed potential
• And once you touched down, it has a good recovery
The Starboard Wingboard joins the latest innovation together! It takes design inspiration from our high performance SUP foil boards and our Olympic class windsurf foil boards – combining the speed and efficiency of foiling with the power of the wind.
THE SHAPE
To get started we need stability and since volume works on leverage, the further away the volume is from your feet, the more stability it creates. We placed the volume in the rails, at the square nose and at the little “platform” at the tail of the board. Stability is also created by having the feet as close to the foil as possible. We do not want to foil with “High Heels”, so the thinner a board is, the better it rides.
ROUND NOSE
Makes it incredibly forgiving on touchdowns as the nose bounces and skims off the large surface area, not sticking and slowing you down.
RECESSED DECK
Significantly improves stability as you have a lower centre of gravity. It also brings you closer to the foil for more control when up and riding.
DRAINAGE CHANNELS
At the tail of the board lets the water drain out immediately once foiling.
THE BOXY RAILS
Pack the volume where you need it, increasing the float and stability so you can ride a narrower and shorter board.
HIGH VOLUME TAIL
Boosts the overall float to ride such small boards.
FLAT TAIL ROCKER
And sharp rails forward increase ground speed until take off.
CHANNEL BOTTOM
That get deeper towards the tail helps to pump, rock the board into release, and also helps for stability.
CUTAWAY TAIL
Allows the board to release that much earlier and reduces the rails from catching through turning.
FOOTSTRAP INSERTS
Make it easy to know where to position the feet and always be in the right spot to trim the board.
*Footstraps do not come with the board
FOIL POSITION
Is optimized to provide early lift for fast takeoffs and gives a very balanced trim when up and riding.
CARRY HANDLE
The carry handle is moved to the bottom of the board to avoid interfering when foiling, yet still easy to carry.
