Lighter weight construction for stiffness, manoeuvrability, and glide.Crisp release chopped tail
The defined edge on the tail allows for faster release off the water and drag-free touchdowns.Deep recessed deck for control and pumpability
The concaved deck, especially in the standing area, positions the rider’s feet level with the foil for more efficient pumping.Non-abrasive high traction deck grip
For a more intuitive and direct connection to your foil, high traction non-abrasive heat-embossed deckpad with centre-line ridge allows fast, easy tactile foot placement.Centreline, offline and V-strap insert options (straps sold separately)
Multiple positioning options for each strap allow you to personalise your stance - or go strapless. Centreline and offline strap insert options accommodate both goofy or natural riding. (Straps sold separately)DropBox Adjustable Fast Foil Mounting Track (165x90mm)
Speed-dial your foil setup. Simply drop your foil pre-assembled with titanium screws and t-nuts into the track, slide it backwards, then tighten the screws to fasten. All Titanium Mounting hardware included.GORE™ waterproof 2-way vent
The EPS core of a high volume board is affected by extreme temperature changes. To prevent air pressure build-up we’ve installed a two-way GORE™ Protective Vent on the top deck. This allows air to pass in and out of the board, while preventing water from entering. The vent is factory-fitted and does not require any adjustment.Elliptical outline
The shorter the board, the more effective it is for pumping, the less swing weight, and more manoeuvrable it is when riding up on the foil.
Tri-plane hull design
The double V-shape in the bottom contour of the board is created by a single concave in the centre with an angled planing surface on each side. The water tracks from the central concave and side rails to the two longitudinal spines, allowing the board to lift and release quickly, without sticking. As foiling develops, we’re seeing a progression toward riding lower and using the touchdown as part of your turn. The angled-planing surfaces run right through to the tail, allowing you to touch down on more variable rail angles without catching.
Wing, prone, kite, wake and tow-foiling
Hybrid Carbon Technology
The stiffer the board, the better it will pump and the more responsive it feels. A light yet durable epoxy composite laminate, with a balanced carbon and e-glass fibre layup is wrapped around an EPS core. Carbon Dual T-stringers top and bottom run the length of the board and a durable PVC reinforcement layer under the standing area adds greater impact resistance and rigidity.
Crisp release chopped tail
Deep recessed deck for control and pumpability
It also gives you greater leverage, responsiveness, and heel/toe roll control. The recessed deck results in most of the board’s volume being shifted out toward the rails, in turn providing greater balance and stability on takeoffs and touchdown. It also helps you get your front foot through more easily when prone surfing, so you can get to your feet faster.
Non-abrasive high traction deck grip
Tail kickpad with cutouts on the Swell for your feet while prone paddling. Transverse markers on the deckpad provide a visual reference.
Centreline, offline and V-strap insert options (straps sold separately)
DropBox Adjustable Fast Foil Mounting Track (165x90mm)
Our unique structurally-integrated DropBox has a longer track for a wider adjustment range, allowing you to precision-tune the foil set up for your rider weight. The measurement guide next to the track aids correct positioning. Industry-standard 90mm track spacing means the Swell is compatible with most foil systems.
