Above Foilboard
The Above range is our mid-length foilboard series engineered for effortless winging in light winds. Its longer, narrower outlines generate early lift-off and a stable, comfortable ride. This versatile range is a blend of the Ace Foil and Take Off model in a midlength size offering. New sizes now include options for both beginner riders and prone foil surfers.
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.

BLUE CARBON FOILBOARD
LIGHTWEIGHT, STRONG AND DURABLE, PVC REINFORCED STANDING
› Top grade 150g Biaxial Carbon wraps the entire board, joining with an overlap on the deck and bottom to create flat stringer, increasing the total breakage strength.
› High density PVC is wrapped over the standing area for extra impact resistance, while keeping weight to the absolute minimum.
› Ultra light reinforced Foil Box is engineered with 5 x horizontal stringers, with an extended PVC Omega stringer that extends beyond the foil box for additional strength and control.
From your very first flight to carving fast turns, the Above Foilboard range is designed to support every stage of your foiling journey. With a balanced volume distribution and refined rocker line, it ensures early takeoffs, soft touchdowns, and smooth rail-to-rail transitions.
The larger sizes offer stability and ease, making them ideal for beginners. Paired with our durable ASAP construction, they’re also the perfect choice for schools and centers. Mid-sized boards suit intermediate riders looking to progress, while the smaller models are tuned for advanced wave riding and prone foiling.
With this updated range, we’ve redefined what an all-round wingfoil board can do – delivering confidence, control, and performance in every session.
Effortless Lift-off
Additional volume in the nose and tail creates a balanced stance over the foil, generating early lift-off and rapid recovery on touchdown.
Stable Glide
A parallel mid-section and flat deck provide a predictable, balanced ride with excellent tracking and control for optimum stability.
Dynamic Release
Boxy rails, a rounded pin tail, and a refined bottom shape ensure clean, quick rebounds and efficient water exit for maximum speed.

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.Starboard FoilBoard board bags – ACE FOIL
