Starboard Above Foilboard

ABOUT DEVELOPMENT

The Above development took inspiration from learnings in downwind SUP and Wingfoiling. Learning from the longer, narrow designs of the Ace Foil, we wanted the same efficiency and speed to take off in light winds. However, we aimed for more maneuverability and forgiveness on touchdowns, requiring slightly shorter lengths while maintaining the narrow outlines crucial for fast take-offs. Combining the parallel mid-section from the Take Off range, the pronounced Vee nose from the X-15, and a compromise to widen the nose and tail outline, we created the Above.

WHAT CAN YOU EXPECT FROM THE SHAPE?

Various volumes and sizes allow first-time riders to get up on foil easily, while intermediate riders will enjoy light wind winging and easy freeriding in all wind conditions.

Additional volume in the nose and tail allows you to have an even stance over the foil before flight, while the combination of a longer and narrower outline easily generates speed for early lift off. A parallel nose with sharp rails gives the Above easy-to-recover touchdowns, with instant rebound. The Above concept was inspired by blending our favourite models, with speed and fast lift off inspired from our narrower, Ace range and blended ideas from our favourite models through the years.

Features: 

› VEE SHAPED NOSE
Inspired by the X15 and Take Off ranges, the Vee nose reduces drag for early take-offs, allowing you to get up flying faster. It is more forgiving on touchdowns, enabling quick recovery to rebound and continue flying. The nose is slightly wider than the Ace Foil, providing greater control and stability before flight.

› PARALLEL MID-SECTION
The mid-section of the outline is kept straight for a predictable and balanced ride. This improves overall stability and tracking for a controlled glide to take-off.

› FLAT DECK
The deck is kept flat to utilize the full width, offering more space and comfort from these narrow outlines. It remains thin over the foil for control and responsiveness, while the nose and tail volume balance the trim.

› ROUND PIN TAIL
Drawing from the success of the Ace, the pin tail helps pop the board out of the water. As you shift your weight to sink the tail, the nose lifts, forcing you to lift out of the water. The tail has a slight Vee for an efficient release, ensuring fast speed and efficiency. The wider tail offers more stability for a controlled take-off.

› BOXY RAILS
Boxy rails reduce the overall width while maintaining the stability of a wider board, leading to better efficiency and faster take-offs. This design feature, inspired by years of race development, allows riders to manage narrower boards easily.

› BOTTOM SHAPE
A vee round nose helps for efficient take offs and recovers well on touch downs, feeding to a flat bottom for maximum stability, exiting with a round tail for a smooth release.

› 14” US BOX
The 14” US box with a rear slot provides various foil positions depending on the foil type, riding style, and conditions. Position the foil in the center of the box for most uses.

Early production boards have 16″ boxes.

› CUSTOM INSERTS
Multiple foot strap inserts offer numerous options to dial in your preferred stance for optimal control and comfort.
