DOWNWIND SUP FOILING

Introducing the new Hover Downwind models, designed and developed in partnership with Austin Kalama and our team on Maui. These SUP foiling boards are the perfect choice for both seasoned professionals and aspiring riders looking to experience the thrill of downwind paddling. Crafted with the utmost precision, the Hover DW is available in 105 and 125-liter board volumes, offering a well-balanced design in length, width, rocker, and hull shape. This combination ensures accessibility without ever compromising on performance and speed. With exceptional attention to detail, the Hover DW has been designed and developed to revolutionize the world of downwind SUP foiling. The maximized waterline and beveled rails facilitate the generation and optimization of momentum with each paddle stroke, allowing riders to achieve directional stability and lift-off onto the foil with maximum ease. Furthermore, the beveled bottom ensures lateral stability during acceleration and facilitates quick lift-off, enabling riders to glide and ride swiftly across the waves. So, whether you're a seasoned pro or an aspiring rider, the Hover DW is the top choice for your next downwind adventure.
