THE THRIVE FOR FOIL PERFECTION
Incredible! Faster and faster foil flying! JP’s fastest foil board got even faster – again! In racing development never stops. New foils and sail and the steadily increasing level of the riders demand for constant updates. The PWA rules still allow one foil board in the riders’ quiver. Hence our shaper Werner Gnigler worked on the core sizes and presents three new shapes in the five-board range – the 80, 85 and 88. The main focus was on efficiency, minimizing resistance and control in the air. Steps to achieve this were to reduce nose scoop and thickness in the front rail and the now slightly domed deck of the nose optimizes the airflow. The deck shape in the standing area received the most radical change becoming flatter with large pads now extending even a bit further than the rail providing more and constant leverage towards the foil. All in all, this results in more dominance over the foil at higher speed.
