TROUVER UN DÉTAILLANT

From the mind of master shaper/designer Mark Raaphorst the RAPTOR Launch is our newest Foilboard created using our Ace-Tec construction. An exciting challenge for Mark, this is the first board he has shaped manufactured in Ace-Tec technology. The finished product is revolutionary, and Mark is excited about the doors it will open for new wing foilers, casual weekend warriors, and intermediate larger-size foilers looking for a board that will stand the test of time.

Like all his designs, Mark's attention to detail is evident. The full nose outline and straight tail rocker provide paddling stability without sacrificing performance. The rear foil placement and bottom chine provide easy lift-off and forgiveness during learning touchdowns. The double-slotted box allows for more secure mounting of the foil, and the diamond-grove textured EVA pad provides traction and grip when turning. Narrower foot strap placement is ideal for wing foiling allowing for dynamic turning.

SIC seamless Ace-Tec product is manufactured in France, which helps us maintain our constant drive for innovation and control the material we use. Ace-Tec Manufacturing is eco-friendly with low energy consumption, includes recycling all our manufacturing off-cuts, and has zero polluting/toxic emissions. Our EPS cores are also made on-site, ensuring zero waste. No auto-obsolesces in our products as we ensure tough, durable long-life equipment.
