Voga Marine are deploying their unique aviation carbon foil housings on all of our wing foil, surf foil and downwind boards. A new state of the art to replace plastic US rails, a widely used standard which does the job but has structural flaws.
They sought to provide a more precise, more incisive riding experience and to ease take-off and touch-and-go by increasing the overall stiffness of our boards.
The housings made directly from a block of machined high-density PVC contribute to the structural integrity of the board. Here, the PVC block does not constitute a simple reinforcement for plastic rails but constitutes the double US box itself.
This block is attached to a beam linked to the deck sandwich forming an extremely rigid IPN structure, which secures all the mechanical stress points of the board. The system is closed by a 6mm infused carbon plate made from Airbus fabrics, normally used to hold the wings of airliners.
Your movements are thus transmitted to the foil without latency, the response is immediate, a considerable advantage in carving, freestyle, racing and certainly in pumping.
