The iQFOiL Concept at a glance

THE BOARD

iQFOIL 95: Our most high-performance foil racing board that is capable of upwind/downwind racing on a fin if the conditions get really tough. 95cm wide for convenient air travel, designed to take off smoothly from 6 knots, powerful in light winds, controllable in strong winds, convertible to fin mode and built-in durable and lightweight Carbon Reflex technology.

 

THE FOIL
The newest evolution of the Starboard Foil’s ground-breaking Race foil – the double World-Champion PWA Racing Foil that has won more events than any other. The iQFOiL foil set includes the 115 Plus fuselage, the 900 frontwing 250 backwing and the 95cm iQFOiL Mast.

 

THE FINS
The iQFOiL 95 is provided with a Drake Race 68cm.

 

THE SAIL

Men: Severne HyperGlide Olympic 9.0 m²
Women: Severne HyperGlide Olympic 8.0 m²

The New IQFoil 95

Dimensions: 220x95cm. 196 liters

The iQFOiL 95 trims the width down to facilitate transport as check-in baggage. At 95cm, the board packed in a board bag fits comfortably inside airport scanners. The iQFOiL 95 also includes deeper cut-aways than the iQFOiL 100 that reduces tail volume and tail surface area. This helps to promote an even easier take-off.

Available in Carbon Reflex Sandwich construction

The Foil

STARBOARD IQFOIL FOIL SET

Back to back 2017/2018 World Champion and Vice World Champion, making it the most successful racing foil in windsurfing to date: Starboard’s Race foil started the iQFOiL project and it is the foil that made foiling in the Olympics a possibility. Its innovative racing geometry was the breakthrough that enabled foiling to cover Windsurfing Olympics’ wind range and performance requirements. Compared to the original Race foil, the iQFOiL foil set has been upgraded with a stiffer UHM Carbon mast and a 900 front wing for extra light-wind performance. It comes with the 115cm Plus Fuselage for upwind and downwind racing and for higher winds and racing formats with more reaching. The Plus fuselage has an adjustable tail wing angle that allows the rider to increase control in high winds or increase power in light winds.

Components: 900 front wing | 255 tail wing with -2 degree | 115 Plus fuselage | 95cm iQFOiL mast

Cut Aways

Extra-large cutaways, more than double the size of the regular Formula’s, reduces the wetted area and improves take-off onto the foil.

Sharp Rails & Beveled Nose

The sharp rails in the tail allows the boards to get planing and reach take off speed more easily. Additionally, the board will bounce off the water if you clip the water surface instead of sticking and throwing you into a catapult.

The beveled nose improves aerodynamics and ultimately provides more control at high speeds.

Recessed Mast Track

Deck concave and recessed mast track for a more vertical sailing position while closing the gap between the sail and the deck of the board.

The Fin

Footstraps

The iQFOiL range comes with a the latest generation of Drake Ultralight footstraps. These straps are ideal for foiling when foot pressure is lighter than regular windsurfing. The Ultralight’s elongated screw slots also allow the rider to set their back strap extra-wide using hole spacings further apart. This allows the rider’s foot to shift forward for downwind and backwards for upwind, giving perfect trim-adjustment on the fly.

Foil Box

The Foil Box is larger and stronger than a normal fin box to distribute loads over a larger area. It is built using solid sheets of 20 mm thick high-density PVC with 8 mm thick carbon fibre walls, and has a flat, parallel bottom which allows the box to take both types of foil bases: tapered ‘Tuttle-style’ base and rectangular foil bases.

In either case, it is strongly recommended for the front of the foil’s base to reach the bottom of the box. This ensures that the vertical lifting load from the foil will be carried by both the front wall of the box and the bottom wall of the box.

An Open, Modular Foil Platform

Choose Your Foil: Wings, fuselages and masts can be interchanged or upgraded to match rider style, budget, foil racing conditions and sport discipline.
