North Foil Guide: Find Your Sonar Setup
Elite Watersports / North Sonar setup guide
Less guessing. More time on the foil.
Choosing a North Sonar foil? Use our interactive North foil guide to check front-wing and stabilizer matches, compare mast and fuselage options, and explore setups for wing, surf, downwind, pump, kite and Foil Drive riding.
Start with your exact front-wing model or riding style. The app brings together North’s Sonar Foil Rider Guide, Version 6, the original diagrams and Elite Watersports videos, while keeping North’s weight and skill conditions attached to its recommendations.

A North foil match means the exact model
North separates exact wing/stabilizer pairings from broader discipline setups. For example, its p.15 matrix marks MA2400v2 with S320, while SF1230 + S142 is marked for riders over 85 kg and DW1400 + S142 for riders under 85 kg; DW1400 also has an unqualified S192 match. Check the original North matching chart, p.15.
Choose the front wing first, check its exact stabilizer row, then compare mast and fuselage options for your riding style. The app keeps these steps separate so a broad setup range is not mistaken for approval of every combination. Confirm model generation, hardware and any unclear recommendation before buying.
North foil guide: quick answers
Where is the North foil guide PDF?
North’s Sonar Foil Rider Guide is available as an official online booklet on Issuu. Read it inside the app or open the original; this page does not offer a separate direct PDF download.
Which North Sonar stabilizer matches my front wing?
Look up the exact model in the app’s searchable chart, based on North’s front-wing and stabilizer matrix, p.15. A family name alone is not enough, and weight or advanced-rider conditions still apply.
How do I choose a mast and fuselage?
After checking the wing and stabilizer, compare your discipline’s setup in the app. North’s setup overview, pp.40–41 is the starting point; its mast and fuselage options do not approve every possible component combination.
