THE FOIL FREERIDE IN DETAIL

For 2024, we introduce exciting updates to the FOIL FREERIDE lineup. To enhance performance, we have focused on reducing aerodynamic drag by implementing a lower rocker profile. Additionally, we have incorporated a massive vee design, which effectively minimizes the risk of catapults, allowing riders to push their limits with confidence. Improved take-offs are now achieved through the progressive tail kick, providing the necessary speed for a seamless transition onto the foil. This design element optimizes the board’s performance and enhances the overall foiling experience. Both sizes have been renamed to represent their respective widths: 75 and 85. These changes ensure a more precise selection process, catering to individual preferences and skill levels.

IMPROVED VOLUME DISTRIBUTION AND REDUCED SWING WEIGHT

Further enhancing manoeuvrability, the FOIL FREERIDE features shorter noses and mast tracks. These design elements promote easy take-offs, and also reduce swing weight, providing a lighter and more floating sensation. Improved volume distribution, thin profiles, and flat decks contribute to enhanced stability and control.

SEAMLESS AND CONFIDENT ACTION

Experience quick planing and early take-offs with the FOIL FREERIDE. Effortless landings and relaunches are facilitated by increased nose rocker. The board’s hard rail edges ensure confident rebounding off the water during touchdowns.

FOIL-OPTIMIZED PADS

The FOIL FREERIDE is equipped with thin pads specially designed for enhanced control and feedback during foiling. These pads are engineered to absorb fewer impacts, while the diamond grooves ensure perfect grip.

YULEX NEOPRENE

For a comfortable and reliable connection during long freeride adventures, the Drake foot straps are constructed using premium Yulex foam and the smoothest fabric available.

RECOMMENDED FOILS

Consider pairing the FOIL FREERIDE with Starboard Evolution Foils such as the SuperFlyer, Freeride, Slalom, or Race models for optimal performance.

LIGHTWEIGHT BOARDS DESIGNED FROM THE GROUND UP AS OUR LOWEST CARBON FOOTPRINT

Dream Team Rider

With the Foil Freeride I can cruise along the coast with my friends and go from one island to another island. I like the comfortable stance it has, and if I want to go faster I have the chance to reach a high top speed by choosing a faster foil. If I want a more cruisy feeling, I tune it with a slower foil. Like that, I feel that the shape of the Foil Freeride will cover the needs most foilers are looking for!

Surprised how easy it gybes and how much control I felt. It is a fast foil board and also nice for longer distances since the stance is so comfortable.
