A versatile blend of the Ace Foil and Take Off shapes in a mid-length format. Five UK-available sizes from a compact 6'10\" × 21\" (101 L) for confident progressing riders, through to a spacious 7'5\" × 32\" (155 L) for heavier riders and complete beginners. Three constructions — premium Blue Carbon, mid-tier Limited Series, and entry-level ASAP — starting at £1,099. The right board if you want to learn winging or progress your light-wind game in North Wales conditions.
