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.

Features
Shape
The refined profile and thickness of the X-Glide V2 wings improve glide, allowing you to reach high speeds effortlessly while offering excellent glide. In terms of maneuverability, the wing outline allows for easy carving, while their compactness due to the mid-aspect ratio ensures simple and smooth transitions.
Matériaux
By avoiding a fully carbon construction, we have been able to reduce costs and make the sport more accessible to a larger audience. The other parts of the foil are made of aluminum, while the Glide 220 stabilizer is made of carbon, ensuring a good balance between performance and cost.
Nouvelle Connection
Our new system ensures a solid connection with perfectly controlled and rigid axes of movement.
This new fitting also guarantees extreme solidity of the front wings, ideal for riders who want to jump and practice freestyle.

Equipment
Complete Package
Mast
Offering the best compromise between accessibility in terms of price and rigidity, this mast ensures excellent connection between the rider and the foil for the most direct sensations possible.
Sacrificial Anode
The plate and mast/fuselage connector are also made of aluminum, while the entire screw set is made of stainless steel, offering additional resistance to marine conditions.
Stabilizer
You can then adjust the performance of your foil by simply changing the stabilizer: opt for a smaller Glide stabilizer to increase your speed and glide, or switch to the Carve stabilizer for more radical maneuverability. This flexibility allows you to adapt your equipment to your riding style and personal preferences.
