Description
The Drifter Surf is designed around the core needs of surf foiling: paddling speed, stable pop ups, and a board that feels small and direct once you are flying. The outline supports comfortable paddling and wave catching, then tightens into a compact platform that disappears underfoot. It’s built to handle messy surf, steep sections, and radical turns without feeling sticky or oversized. The board stays predictable when you push into swooping carves, holds its line through critical sections, and recovers cleanly through touchdowns, whitewash, and mistakes. Foil Assist: Integrated 2.4 GHz tuned connectivity windows for Foil Assist systems.
Construction
Carbon construction. Reinforced nose patches add durability. Most advanced full core layup for strength, stiffness, and lightweight performance. Full biaxial and UD carbon reinforced with S-glass for maximum stiffness and impact resistance. Reinforced structure for improved response, feel, and long-term durability. Integrated fiberglass windows tuned to 2.4GHz for Foil Assist connectivity.
Highlights
Bottom
Subtle double displacement hull, inspired by the Super K2 but flattened for more stability. Streamlined tri-plane bevels, surf focused bottom contours angled for quick release, early lift, and predictable recovery on touchdowns.
Rocker
Moderate, low-profile rocker for speed and efficiency, with a subtle nose kick to match wave shape, manage steeper drops, and recover easily from touchdowns or chop. Slight tail rocker with slight nose up feel that aids in swoopy carving turns and a balanced feel.
Rails
Refined almond rail bevels for clean release and clearance through deep carves. Minimal sticking when a rail engages through turns or whitewash.
Pads and Straps
Refined lightweight slotted traction. Maximum grip with reduced weight. Reduced thickness for improved board feel, pumping efficiency, and control. Includes Adjustable MFC front and rear internally adjustable foot straps with hardware. Surf-style insert pattern with slight offset options for centered, balanced directional riding.
Track Boxes
New 14" Universal Track System. In house designed 14 inch reinforced foil specific track boxes. Puncture resistant elevated channels for durability and compatibility across mast lengths and hardware types. Designed for durability and consistent strength under heavy loading.
