Take Off Air Foil Inflatable Foilboard
Starboard’s innovative Take Off Air Foil is an inflatable foilboard board that is compact, easy to transport, and built for high performance. Featuring Starboard’s innovative patented standing plate directly mounted to the foil base, the top plate brings you millimeters from the foil, giving you the best possible control and stiffness.
Updated & Improved Carbon Plate
The Take Off Air Foil model introduces a refined carbon plate with enhanced usability and stability. New slots allow for quicker and easier foil installation, securing nuts and bolts in place similar to composite boards. The plate is now 2 cm longer, expanding the standing area for improved balance and easier takeoffs. Additionally, a redesigned EVA pad eliminates open slots on the deck, preventing water entry into the plug area.
AWARD-WINNING DESIGN
Our award-winning Starboard Air Foil sets the standard for innovation and performance, praised for its lightweight, stiffness, durability, and travel-friendly design.
DELUXE LITE CONSTRUCTION
The lightest inflatable construction from Starboard is now available in the Air Foil range. It helps you take off earlier, fly faster and in lighter winds as well as conserve energy with every stroke and pump.
› Equipped with an aluminium standing plate. › Slot design now supports the same hardware used with carbon foil plates. › Quick Mounting System – Track nuts lock into position on the deck side, allowing easy alignment. › Mast-Side Bolt Access – Bolts insert from the mast side, making it easier to tighten the base securely without flipping the board. › Streamlined Setup – Reduces setup time and improves reliability when mounting or adjusting your foil on water or land. › Comes with a carbon standing plate, now 2kg lighter than aluminium. › Improved foil installation system with secure slots for quicker assembly. › Extended plate length for more standing area, aiding in stability and takeoffs. Patented Top Plate Technology, with just 1.5 cm between your feet and the foil, provides direct feedback and improved control. Combined with the solid standing plate, it enhances the flight experience on the inflatable foil board, eliminating any wobbly sensations. Take Off Air Foil Deluxe Lite comes with an aluminium plate. Features enhanced slots for quick foil installation, improved standing area, and sealed EVA pad to prevent water entry. A newly designed carbon plate is now 2 cm longer, increasing stability and aiding riders in smoother, easier takeoffs. Inspired by the proven X-15 and Take Off ranges, the Vee nose reduces drag for early takeoffs, allowing you to get up flying faster. It is more forgiving on touchdowns, enabling quick recovery to rebound and continue flying. Available in Take Off Air Foil Deluxe Lite Carbon. A closed EVA pad prevents water from entering the foil plug area from the deck, keeping the board dry and minimizing water weight during sessions. Features a secure centre carry handle strap for easy handling with foil. The rocker is lifted in the nose and tail for easier takeoffs and more forgiving touchdowns. The Take Off, which takes its inspiration from the Wingboard composite, has a balanced, wide, and short form that makes it ideal for freestyle foiling and provides good stability prior to takeoff. Designed to accommodate different foil styles, offering personalized ride adjustments. The 3D Rail Edge enhances planing before takeoff, while the EVA Plug seals the foil mount for smoother water flow. Together, they reduce drag and boost acceleration for faster, more efficient takeoffs on your inflatable foilboard. The Welded Rail Technology creates a completely airtight, mechanically bonded seam without the risk of glue weakening over time. This makes Starboard inflatable boards stronger and longer lasting. All inflatable foil boards feature welded rails, both along the board and at the foil opening. With an 18cm distance between the inserts, you can have a wider foot strap span for better trim and control while foiling since you can micro-adjust your feet position. 4 different positions for the footstraps in the front and 5 different positions for the straps in the back are available. Footstrap set included with Take Off Deluxe Lite Carbon only. Included with the board: a coil leash, Tiki Pump with dual nozzles for both board and wing, and a travel-friendly wheelie bag that fits a complete wing foil set.Deluxe Lite

ABOUT DEVELOPMENT
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.WHAT CAN YOU EXPECT FROM THE SHAPE?
Various volumes and sizes allow first-time riders to get up on foil easily, while intermediate riders will enjoy light wind winging and easy freeriding in all wind conditions. Additional volume in the nose and tail allows you to have an even stance over the foil before flight, while the combination of a longer and narrower outline easily generates speed for early lift off. A parallel nose with sharp rails gives the Above easy-to-recover touchdowns, with instant rebound. The Above concept was inspired by blending our favourite models, with speed and fast lift off inspired from our narrower, Ace range and blended ideas from our favourite models through the years.2025 STARBOARD ABOVE Midlength Board- BLUE CARBON
