Summary
The Raptor board shapes focus on those learning to foil. The 5'8'' size is a great board for small to medium-sized riders to learn on and the perfect size for larger intermediate riders ready to move down to a smaller board. Both sizes should be the first boards you consider buying after your first steps in Wing Foiling school.
