DETAILED DESCRIPTION
Everyday Versatility
The Unit V5 2025 is a versatile all-rounder, perfect for both freeride and wave riding. You'll feel comfortable with it right away, and it has plenty of performance to keep up as your skills grow. For riders wanting one wing for both cruising and surfing, the Unit V5 delivers the ideal blend of power and control.
A Smoother Ride Feel
The new, lighter MOD3 S canopy provides incredibly linear power delivery. On the water, that means it handles gusts smoothly without yanking your arms, making for a less fatiguing ride on long sessions. You'll feel a predictable, progressive pull that makes maneuvers and transitions feel effortless.
Modularity with the Fusion System
The Fusion system lets you customize the wing to your style: rig it with the rigid handles for a direct, responsive feel, or use the boom for more freedom in hand placement and extra comfort when surfing. This versatility makes the Unit V5 an excellent choice for riders who are still developing their style or for sharing with friends and family.
Handling and Control in Waves
The tuned canopy tension and refined shape make the wing incredibly nimble, helping you carve tight lines on the wave face. The reinforced handle on the leading edge offers a secure grip and a solid, durable feel, giving you total control during transitions or when flagging the wing to drift.
Comfort and Durability
The combination of a lightweight canopy and high-quality construction strikes the perfect balance between responsive feedback and long-lasting durability. You get a wing that feels light and effortless in your hands, without sacrificing the toughness required for frequent sessions.
Recommended Use
We recommend the Unit V5 for ambitious beginners through to intermediate riders looking for a versatile and forgiving wing. To get on the water, just be sure to add the handles or boom that best suit your style to your cart.
