Who is this for?

Designed for wingfoilers seeking enhanced roll control, comfortable hand positioning, and controlled maneuvers. The 91cm (S) size is built for 2026 Starboard freeride wings between 2.5 and 4.0m², while the 109cm (L) size fits 4.5 to 7.0m² freeride wings as well as all X-15 Class wings.

Design Profile:

An ergonomic, soft-touch oval boom with an integrated forward angle and pistol-grip handle for direct control and semi-flagged riding.

Performance Features:

• Pistol Grip Handle for semi-flagged control and smooth transitions between flag-out and full-power riding.
• Soft Touch Oval Profile that locks into your palm to prevent rotation and improve roll stability.
• Non-Slip Sanded EVA Grip that increases traction when wet without creating uncomfortable pressure points.
• Ergonomic Boom Angle with a raised forward section to maintain a neutral front arm position and reduce fatigue.
• Screw & Go mounting design for fast and secure installation onto the wing strut.

Design Features:

• Pistol Grip Handle - Offers a comfortable hand position and doubles as a firm semi-flag handle, perfect for riding between the boom and flag-out positions—ideal for waves or generating momentum downwind while making transitions smoother and more controlled.
• Soft Touch Oval Profile - Fits naturally into your palm, locking into your hand shape for ergonomic handling. This improves roll control and comfort in maneuvers, preventing the boom from rotating inside your hand and making every movement more precise and secure.
• Non-Slip Sanded EVA Grip - Creates micro-friction that gets grippier when wet, giving secure control while staying smooth and comfortable. Unlike moulded grooves that create pressure points and can get painful, sanded EVA stays easy on your hands even during long sessions.
• Ergonomic Boom Angle - The boom’s forward section is raised to give your front hand a neutral, straight-arm position, reducing back-hand fatigue. It also provides more space for the pistol grip and simplifies the strut shape, as the ergonomic angle is built into the boom itself.
• Screw & Go - Securely mount your boom of choice using the 2x torx screws and torx key provided, placing the raised side of the boom on the front side of the strut closest to the leading edge.

Tech Specs:

• Prepreg UD Carbon Construction - Ultra-slim 24mm pre-preg uni-directional carbon grip for peak performance and control. Prepreg uni-directional carbon maximizes longitudinal stiffness and strength while minimizing weight by reducing excess resin.
• Aluminium Construction - Fuller-feeling 26mm aluminium alloy grip delivering dependable stiffness, impact resistance, and roll control in all conditions at an accessible price point.
