ABOVE 101L vs ACE FOIL LIGHTNING 101L
Ultra-efficient, the Ace Lightning’s sharp, long, narrow outline glides through the water with minimal resistance, promoting early lift to get onto foil in rapid time. Ideal for skilled riders both in SUP downwinding and light-wind winging.
The ABOVE in the same volume offers most of the Ace’s efficiency, in a more accessible package, with a big boost to stability. Increased width and balanced volume distribution (particularly in nose and tail) ensure it remains very stable underfoot when at rest or transitioning onto foil.
We had a great session testing foils on these boards a few weeks ago, with these shapes allowing us to test in very light winds where no other foilers even bothered trying 😎
Thanks + - awesome demo centre!
