We present the JP Australia Downwind Board.
Downwind foiling with a paddle and/or Wing
This downwind SUP Foil Board offers exceptional stability, glide, and paddling speed for easy, early takeoff. The sloped, slightly concave deck helps you efficiently convert your paddling power into forward momentum. The unique flat section under the standing area provides stability, while the rounded nose and sharply tapered tail enable smooth touch-downs and efficient initiation of flight. Built using our most advanced S TEC technology, the board combines extremely low weight with the stiffness and quick response of this high-performance carbon Construction. New tracks make foil installation easier, and the mirrored Foil scale on the EVA pad ensures precise positioning and even more control.
In addition to its shape characteristics, the most important feature of a good downwind board is that it is as light and stiff as possible. Low inertia and high stiffness for direct response are crucial. That’s why we made no compromises. We offer this board exclusively in our high-end S TEC Construction. A precisely CNC-milled core is encased in a full PVC sandwich with lightweight biaxial carbon. Additionally, there is a unidirectional carbon patch running the length of the standing area and mirrored on the underside in the area of the foil boxes. A special lamination method ensures a resin-to-fiber ratio similar to that of prepreg. This results in a feather-light triax carbon PVC sandwich structure for the highest performance in composite board construction.
For further weight savings, a brushed topcoat is applied directly over the carbon on the top. The faded paint finish in the area of the nose and tail rails, in bright fluorescent colors, ensures visibility and safety on the water.
The redesigned track system makes Foil setup faster and easier than ever before. Large openings let you insert the plate nuts directly, slide them forward or backward, and tighten them. Removal is just as quick: loosen, slide back, and lift off. All boards come with four plate nuts for a perfect fit, optimal weight distribution, and a secure threaded connection. The mirrored position scale on the EVA pad on the deck shows you exactly where your Foil is in relation to your back foot. The fine corduroy pad provides grip and comfort.
