The
RF Foils have been developed for a single objective: to perform in all
conditions and on all types of course in competition or in freerace /
Slalom Foil navigation.
Their unique shape combines a relatively flat deck plan and an
optimized volume distribution to facilitate the take-off of the foil
while gently absorbing any touches during loss of flight. The
positioning of the foil box guarantees very fast take-off over a very
short distance. Its unique shape allows it to be adapted to all types of
foils while making the flight more stable, comfortable but also more
efficient.
The new 85 and 91 v3 push the concept validated by the previous generation even further:
An
increase in volume on the front of the board to rebound when touching
and allow the foil to naturally put itself in a positive impact for the
take-off. A slightly curved deck plan on the nose to neutralize the
upwind at counter-heel and upwind. A lowered mast foot rail for better
control and to bring the foot edge of the sail closer to the deck.
The deck plan has been modified underfoot for more comfort and less stress on the foil (better glide), without reducing control.
The
front foot higher than the rear foot allows permanent power and control
over the foil, even in light airs. It also allows for easier placement
of the feet when jibing, with a board that naturally stays in the air.
// KEY FEATURES
// RF 85 and RF 91 v3 developed for race-racing and slalom foil
//
Foil box set back as far as possible combined with a distribution of
volume which boosts the departure to the planning in ultra-light
conditions.
// Unique bridge
shape positioning the front foot higher than the rear foot: this
promotes control, gives power, but also makes jibing disconcertingly
easy.
// Volume placed in front of the mast foot to promote take-off.
// Mast foot lowered.
// 4 ultra light Exocet footstraps with integrated antitwist.
