PATRIK FOIL RIDE

OVERVIEW

The FoilRide is the easiest to ride out of our five (!) pure foil boards: the FoilCompV2, the FoilRace, the FoilRide, the FoilMove, and the FoilStyle.
It's a little narrower in the tail than the FoilRace and the FoilComp. The FoilRide doesn't have cutouts, which makes the acceleration more even, easier to control, and more stable. Usually, freeriders don't use a lot of rake on the foil mast, so the additional sinking of the tail as a secondary result of the cutouts is not needed to give the foil a positive angle of attack. It's far more important to give the rider the confidence and safety to quickly gain trust in foiling and improve from session to session.
Of course, our cutout design provides more aggressive acceleration and gets to flight earlier, but at the same time, the passive acceleration (without pumping sail and board) is really impressive on the FoilRide. The mast track doesn't come with the deck recess, which is not needed in freeriding, so the board is less vulnerable to deck damage while you're learning to master the foil. The advanced aerodynamics of this board will give you the smoothest and easiest ride on a windfoil you can possibly imagine. 

The wider the board, the earlier the flight and the easier the jibes. The narrower the board, the better the aerodynamics in strong winds, resulting in a more controlled flight.
