2025 Flysurfer POW Parawing
The POW is designed for dynamic surfing with various boards - whether on the water, beaches, or frozen lakes. Unlike existing parawing concepts, it's not just another downwind wing, it's a true single-skin wing, developed from the ground up using the knowledge and production processes associated with this technology. Extensive testing against all relevant competitors has shaped the POW into a versatile, intuitive, and forgiving wing. Flysurfer's Pop Out Wing proves that single-skin wings can deliver exceptional performance upwind and downwind.
Features:
- Single Skin Parawing / Soft Wing
- Upwind and Downwind Performance
- Ergonomic Carbon Handle
- Pulley-Controlled Camber

2025 Flysurfer POW Review
Board Details:
2025 Starboard Above Limited Series
Mid-size range. Longer and narrower designs for a user-friendly foiling experience.
The Above development took inspiration from learnings in downwind SUP and Wingfoiling. Learning from the longer, narrow designs of the Ace Foil, we wanted the same efficiency and speed to take off in light winds. However, we aimed for more maneuverability and forgiveness on touchdowns, requiring slightly shorter lengths while maintaining the narrow outlines crucial for fast take-offs. Combining the parallel mid-section from the Take Off range, the pronounced Vee nose from the X-15, and a compromise to widen the nose and tail outline, we created the Above.
Starboard Above vs. Take Off
Features:
- VEE SHAPED NOSE - Inspired by the X15 and Take Off ranges, the Vee nose reduces drag for early take-offs, allowing you to get up flying faster. It is more forgiving on touchdowns, enabling quick recovery to rebound and continue flying. The nose is slightly wider than the Ace Foil, providing greater control and stability before flight.
- PARALLEL MID-SECTION - The mid-section of the outline is kept straight for a predictable and balanced ride. This improves overall stability and tracking for a controlled glide to take-off.
- FLAT DECK - The deck is kept flat to utilize the full width, offering more space and comfort from these narrow outlines. It remains thin over the foil for control and responsiveness, while the nose and tail volume balance the trim.
- ROUND PIN TAIL - Drawing from the success of the Ace, the pin tail helps pop the board out of the water. As you shift your weight to sink the tail, the nose lifts, forcing you to lift out of the water. The tail has a slight Vee for an efficient release, ensuring fast speed and efficiency. The wider tail offers more stability for a controlled take-off.
- BOXY RAILS - Boxy rails reduce the overall width while maintaining the stability of a wider board, leading to better efficiency and faster take-offs. This design feature, inspired by years of race development, allows riders to manage narrower boards easily.
- BOTTOM SHAPE - A vee round nose helps for efficient take offs and recovers well on touch downs, feeding to a flat bottom for maximum stability, exiting with a round tail for a smooth release.
- 14” US BOX - The 14” US box with a rear slot provides various foil positions depending on the foil type, riding style, and conditions. Position the foil in the center of the box for most uses.
- Early production boards have 16″ boxes.
- CUSTOM INSERTS - Multiple foot strap inserts offer numerous options to dial in your preferred stance for optimal control and comfort.
