The Foil:
The Futura Surf/SUP Foil package is designed to make hydrofoil surfing and SUP surf foiling user-friendly, approachable and fun in a wide range of wave conditions. The package delivers the best of both worlds with plenty of lift and early takeoff for catching even the smallest rolling waves yet holds ample speed and glide to stay connected to the wave energy. The magic is in the Futura’s Manta wing, which has a large, low-aspect shape incorporating an Inverted Gull Wing outline that gives it much better top-end speed and easy to engage pumping performance than many foils of similar size and surface area.
Ideal for both surfing and SUP surfing the Futura Surf Foil package is available in 2 complete set ups that offer full adaptation for your weight, wave choice and style.
Features:
- Aluminum alloy mast with an optimized cord length for stable tracking
- Track pedestal mount at 90mm track with standard
- Aluminium alloy fuselage with 2 front wing position options
- Carbon laminated front and rear wings
- Titanium hardware for reducing corrosion
- Fully modular system that is compatible with all Ride Engine wings and masts

THE FORCE TAKEAWAY:
This is a seriously sweet SUPfoil/Wingfoil package geared more toward those beginning their experience in SUPfoiling and/or Wingfoiling and for those riders on the larger side that need a solid amount of volume to keep afloat. This package is great for taking the first steps to progress into the new sport of winging and for getting into SUPfoiling. The board is enormous, but shockingly lightweight, so we're not too exhausted just after that walk out to the water.
