DETAILED DESCRIPTION
Early Take-Off and Glide
The long, narrow shape and low rocker get you up on foil with minimal effort, even in the lightest winds. You'll feel very little drag as the board accelerates, helping you lift off early and stay balanced through the transition to foiling.
Stability and Control
The sharp rails and hard edges on the back half of the board provide a solid platform for carving and deliver confidence-inspiring stability on downwind runs. You'll feel more secure in small swell, with forgiving touchdowns and efficient pumping to get you back on foil quickly.
Handling and Feel
The clean bottom shape and concave entry guarantee soft touchdowns and fluid turns. The board responds predictably to your input, making it easier to nail your maneuvers and progress your skills in both wing foiling and SUP downwinding.
Lightweight and Transport
The custom carbon sandwich construction makes the board incredibly light and easy to manage on land. You'll appreciate how easy it is to carry to the beach and how responsive it feels to your footwork, all without compromising on-water durability.
Dedicated Versatility
Designed for SUP downwinding on small swells and light-wind wing foiling, the Downwinder SLS adapts to your riding style. Use it for technical downwind runs or for more wing-focused sessions, depending on the size you choose.
Choosing Your Size
The three volumes let you match the board's stability and handling to your build and the local conditions. Go for the 95L for lighter riders or a more technical feel, the 115L for the perfect all-round balance, or the 135L for maximum float and the easiest possible take-off.
