More info
KT Foiling Atlas Back Wing
Glide-Oriented Geometry: Low sweep with center of lift aligned for maximum efficiency at design speeds. Advanced High Camber Airfoil: Optimized for maximum efficiency across a wide speed range, with a rear-loaded design that reduces surface area and boosts low-speed performance while maintaining stability and control. Wide Range Efficiency: Maintains performance from low to high speeds. Precision and Control: Offers reactive control for tight turns and deep carves. Inflected Wingtips: Maximizes control through surface-piercing breaches with high resistance to ventilation.
Description
Intermediate to Advanced. The Atlas series is crafted for intermediate to advanced riders seeking exceptional glide, acceleration, and a broad speed range without compromising turning ability. Designed to optimize lift over a reduced surface area, the Atlas features a unique rear-loaded camber profile and low sweep, allowing it to operate efficiently even at surprisingly low speeds. Tuned for early lift, effortless pumping, speed generation, and high resistance to stalling or ’dropping out,’ it delivers consistent performance across a wide range of conditions. Inflected wingtips make breaching turns and ventilation virtually unnoticeable, making the Atlas ideal for any progressing wing, surf, or downwind foiler. Despite its high aspect shape, the Atlas offers responsive maneuverability, carving, and glide. Due to the Atlas’ unique high camber profile, early lift, and stall resistance, we recommend sizing down 10-20% compared to other foils on the market. Bags: Each model comes with its own bespoke form-fitting protective bag.
