Vitor Marcal, a lifeguard on the North Shore and one of the first foilers 18 years ago when Laird and a few others first tested it, had asked me to build him a foilboard with low drag when the board comes off the Foil.
The first thing that came to mind that landed well on the water was a seaplane. So I did a little research and shaped him a board with a hull similar to that of a seaplane, and it worked great for him back then. Now, almost 20 years later, I’ve revived this shape for the Wing Board models.
These boards not only guide the rider back onto the Foil with little or no drag when they touch down, but they also take off much more easily and quickly. This unique bottom shape, combined with rails beveled at the correct angle, ensures very low drag and additional lift as soon as the board gains a little forward momentum.
I don’t use gimmicks in my shapes. All my designs and shapes are proven, hydrodynamic marvels.
