Nouveau boîtier US en carbone moulé
Les Glide V3 sont équipées de notre nouveau boîtier US en carbone moulé, développé en interne par Takoon. Grâce à leur rigidité incomparable, ces nouveaux boitiers apportent une connexion au foil inégalée, une parfaite transmission des efforts et un feeling sans pareil.
Nos nouveaux box de foil sont fabriquées en carbone préimprégné, polymérisé à haute pression et haute température dans un moule en acier. Ce processus permet d’obtenir un boîtier avec des fibres longues de carbone bien compactés, ce qui le rend tout simplement indestructible et ultra rigide.
Grâce à cette construction, si l’on compare nos boitiers carbone aux boitiers classiques comme les Futures, le gain de rigidité et de robustesse est considérable. En effet, généralement fabriqués en plastique injecté chargé avec de la fibre de verre en fibres courtes, les boitiers classiques peuvent présenter de la déformation à l’effort. Sur l’eau, cela se ressent sous forme d’un temps de latence dans la réactivité du foil, que ce soit pour le pumping, pour carver, ou pour les manœuvres. Avec nos nouveaux boîtiers carbone, la transmission des efforts est instantanée et la connexion est ultra rigide.
Plus longs, ces nouveaux boitiers donnent beaucoup plus de liberté de placement de votre foil. Ils viennent en 2 tailles: 33 cm et 38 cm en fonction de la taille de la planche. Ils sont ainsi plus longs de 6 cm et 11 cm que les boîtiers futurs. Ainsi, vous pourrez affiner vos réglages, afin de trouver la position personnelle qui vous convient le plus.
Ils bénéficient aussi d’une double ouverture par rails pour un montage plus rapide : plus besoin de démonter entièrement vos boulons de la platine, il suffit simplement de desserrer les vis, de faire glisser le foil dans les ouvertures et de resserrer les vis et hop, le tour est joué.
Presentation
H-glide (surf, wing, sup, downwind). Welcome to the feeling of an ultra high aspect.
The H-Glide range has been developed to offer:
- Extreme sliding sensations.
- An incomparable glide on all wave sizes.
- An easy, fast and super effective pumping to reconnect again and again.
- Unbridled maneuverability for fast, powerful and completely free curves in the longitudinal axis.
- Effortless max speeds (regardless of size).
- Excellent lateral stability and formidable upwind.
It is recommended to use the H-glide foil with the stabilizers S-Glide (speed & stability) and C-Glide (maneuverability ++).
H-Glide 1200 (1200 cm2 / 110 cm wingspan / maximum thickness 16 mm / aspect ratio of 10.08 / max chord 14 mm)
- The largest of the H-Glides has been designed for light wind. For such a high ratio, it offers incredible low-speed forgiveness. Its glide is endless and unrestrained, its pumping light and ultra-efficient.
- A downwind machine for sup foiling, it glides to the extreme and flies effortlessly over the smallest waves.
H-Glide 1050 (1050 cm2 / 105 cm wingspan / max thickness 15 mm / aspect ratio 10.5 / max chord 130 mm)
- The H-Glide 1050 has been designed to offer maximum performance in all conditions, as well as great freedom of movement in the lateral and longitudinal axes.
- In wing the foil is stable and powerful in surf and downwind. It will be just as formidable in surf foil and sup foil with fast and efficient pumping.
H-Glide 900 (900 cm2 / 95 cm wingspan / max thickness 15 mm / aspect ratio 10.03 / max chord 125 mm)
H-Glide 750 (750 cm2 / 87 cm wingspan / max thickness 15 mm / aspect ratio 10.09 / max chord 123 mm)
- With profiles optimized for gliding, maneuverability and high speeds, the two smallest H-Glides will offer you an ultra-precise and very responsive feeling without brakes.
- Ideal for heavy conditions and strong winds, from light to technically heavy riders. They are also solid for all types of jumps.
Advice :
- The H-Glides are accessible hyper high aspects, however if you have never used an ultra high aspect, we advise you to do your first tests with medium to strong wind in order to familiarize yourself with the lightness and nervousness of the supports in longitudinal.
- Once the grip has been made, the particularity of the hyper high aspects is to take off in a glide. The best technique in the light is to pump the wing to gain speed and then give a little push on the back foot for takeoff.
- For effective pumping the hyper high aspects need dry and quick support on the front foot.
- The H-glide foil is used with the S-glide 370/400/450 stabs for more stability at high speed and the C-glide 400/450 for more lateral maneuverability.
- To use your X-Glide mast you need the H&S glide adapter.
Note : These wings are only compatible with the S-Glide & H-Glide fuselage
The wings are delivered in their protective cover
