Nouveau boîtier US en carbone moulé

Les Glide V3 sont équipées de notre nouveau boîtier US en carbone moulé, développé en interne par Takoon. Grâce à leur rigidité incomparable, ces nouveaux boitiers apportent une connexion au foil inégalée, une parfaite transmission des efforts et un feeling sans pareil.

Nos nouveaux box de foil sont fabriquées en carbone préimprégné, polymérisé à haute pression et haute température dans un moule en acier. Ce processus permet d’obtenir un boîtier avec des fibres longues de carbone bien compactés, ce qui le rend tout simplement indestructible et ultra rigide.

Grâce à cette construction, si l’on compare nos boitiers carbone aux boitiers classiques comme les Futures, le gain de rigidité et de robustesse est considérable. En effet, généralement fabriqués en plastique injecté chargé avec de la fibre de verre en fibres courtes, les boitiers classiques peuvent présenter de la déformation à l’effort. Sur l’eau, cela se ressent sous forme d’un temps de latence dans la réactivité du foil, que ce soit pour le pumping, pour carver, ou pour les manœuvres. Avec nos nouveaux boîtiers carbone, la transmission des efforts est instantanée et la connexion est ultra rigide.

Plus longs, ces nouveaux boitiers donnent beaucoup plus de liberté de placement de votre foil. Ils viennent en 2 tailles: 33 cm et 38 cm en fonction de la taille de la planche. Ils sont ainsi plus longs de 6 cm et 11 cm que les boîtiers futurs. Ainsi, vous pourrez affiner vos réglages, afin de trouver la position personnelle qui vous convient le plus.

Ils bénéficient aussi d’une double ouverture par rails pour un montage plus rapide : plus besoin de démonter entièrement vos boulons de la platine, il suffit simplement de desserrer les vis, de faire glisser le foil dans les ouvertures et de resserrer les vis et hop, le tour est joué.

Features

Molded carbon US boxes

The Slate boards are equipped with our molded carbon US boxes. Ultra-rigid and indestructible, they offer unmatched foil connection, perfect power transfer, and a unique feel.

Made from pre-preg carbon and molded under high pressure and high temperature, these boxes outperform traditional injected-plastic models.

Result: no deformation, immediate responsiveness, and optimal performance for pumping, carving, and maneuvers.

Carbon boxes with double opening

The new carbon boxes on the Slate offer unmatched freedom of positioning. You can adjust your setup precisely without ever reaching the front or rear stops, for a stance perfectly adapted to your style.

Thanks to their double rail opening, setup is fast: simply loosen the screws, slide the foil, and tighten. Less time mounting, more time on the water!

These rigid boxes maximize your feel and control. They make the whole setup more reactive, giving the sensation of using a smaller front wing. Become one with your foil and experience boosted performance!

Shape

The shape of the Slate has been optimized to make paddling and surfing easier. We designed a shape that is both high-performing and accessible. Its outline is inspired by surfboards, with a refined pin tail that makes the Slate a carving machine.

The volume distribution has been designed to optimize glide, with the wide point placed forward, under the chest, where it is most needed when paddling. The Slate’s beveled rails allow you to commit deeper into your turns while providing excellent rebound on touchdowns and optimal handling.

The Slate offers efficient and comfortable paddling thanks to its rocker, specifically designed for prone foil. Its nose is rounded but not excessively so, striking the perfect balance between paddling glide and in-flight control. For improved glide and easier takeoff, its hull is heavily refined to enhance water flow.

Construction

Partial Sandwich Construction: The surf foil boards use a partial sandwich construction with PVC on the deck and two paulownia stringers. This setup compensates for the thinner profile while maintaining rigidity and control. PVC adds compression strength under the feet, while the wooden stringers ensure a solid connection between the rider and the foil. A precise balance between lightness, flex, and durability.

Tail

The Slate’s tail has been finely engineered to offer the best balance between glide, maneuverability, and accessibility. This pin tail allows the Slate to maintain length for comfortable paddling without compromising maneuverability.

It also minimizes drag, making takeoff easier without pushing water.

There is also a bevel release at the top of the foil box area, allowing you to carve hard without the risk of touching the water.

Rocker line

The Slate features an evolving rocker line. At the nose, there is a medium rocker that provides excellent glide and prevents nose-diving. In the center, the rocker is flat to promote takeoff, with strongly beveled rails to facilitate water flow and support the wave’s curve. At the tail, the rocker becomes more pronounced again to deliver a skateboard-like feel underfoot. This allows for a quicker release from the water—once airborne, the tail no longer risks touching.

EVA Pad

3.5 mm: that’s the thickness of the EVA pad on our Slate. Multi-piece and grooved, it provides increased grip and comfort while ensuring better water drainage on the deck.

Footstrap inserts

For those who prefer to ride with straps, footstrap inserts are available on the Slate. Our comfortable and lightweight Takoon neoprene straps, sold as an option, will offer excellent support and riding comfort.
