Description
Arriving between 8-11th June
The Foil Drive LR6 Low Range Propeller is a high-torque performance upgrade designed to deliver maximum thrust when you need it most. By increasing both the width and length by 6% compared to the standard propeller, the LR6 provides a significantly larger surface area and overall diameter. This "off-road tyre" approach to propeller design trades a small amount of top-end speed for explosive low-end traction, making it the perfect tool for getting moving faster from a standstill, recovering from low-speed touchdowns, or staying on foil during near-stall moments.
Ideal for intermediate and advanced riders, the LR6 excels in challenging conditions where surface motoring and instant power are critical. Whether you are navigating choppy, messy water or pushing the limits of downwind and wave riding, these propellers offer smoother cruising at lower RPMs and improved control through surface chop. Each set consists of three individually weighed and balanced propellers, ensuring a vibration-free ride in both two and three-blade configurations. For riders looking to unlock smaller boards or foils, the LR6 provides the powerful low-end grunt needed to confidently transition from the surface to flight.

Expert Advice: Think of the LR6 as the "low gear" for your Foil Drive. If you frequently ride in the UK’s often messy and windy coastal conditions, the added **low-end thrust** is a massive safety net; it allows you to power through white water or recover from a clumsy touchdown that would otherwise end your flight. While beginners can use them, we suggest starting with the standard black props to find your baseline before upgrading. **Crucial Tip:** Never mix and match these with other propellers; use the full balanced set of three to prevent motor vibration and ensure the longevity of your Foil Drive system.
