We present the Future Fly Dark Horse 5 2026.
The future is faster, lighter, and stronger. The new generation of Future Fly Dark Horses is based on years of World Cup experience and extensive testing on the water. The 2026 series sets new standards in construction and combines innovative technology with new shapes and designs to deliver the fastest boards we’ve ever made.
NEW HIGHLIGHTS
+ARB system for sizes 116 and 136, which improves acceleration, control, and peak performance in challenging conditions. A completely new shape concept for sizes 116 and 136 and a refined cut-out system for size 96, taking the entire series to a new level. -400 g (±3%) thanks to new carbon layering, while also offering increased stiffness, durability, and responsiveness.
+ARB SYSTEM
The Air-Release-Booster System consists of two complementary components: Air-Release Channels and Air-Release Tunnels. Air-Release Channels act like extended cutouts in the center and provide an additional outlet at the tail. They allow excess air to escape from under the board, reducing pressure and improving release. Air-Release Tunnels channel air from the deck into the channels, where it mixes with the water beneath the board. This creates a hovering effect. On the water, the swell feels calmer, acceleration is effortless, overpowered situations are easier to handle, and overall acceleration improves. During jibes, the tunnels provide more grip and stability, enabling tighter, controlled turns with a safe, predictable feel.
NEW CARBON MADNESS Construction
Through careful analysis and optimization of the carbon fiber layup, strength and stiffness have been increased while significantly reducing weight. Additional carbon was added to key areas of the board, reducing the amount of fiberglass needed and making the board lighter, more durable, and more responsive on the water. 400 grams lighter (+-3%)
