AIRBOLT CARBON

WIND/ WING FOILBOARD

One board for all foil destinations, Wind, Wing and Sup. The 2022/23 Airbolt is the ultimate compact and easy foil board that seamlessly crosses over between the disciplines. What we love most about foiling is all the places we now can have epic sessions at.

With the rider back foot positioned directly on the foil, and with mast box placed further back than other foil boards in the market, the Airbolt delivers the industry’s most direct feeling from the sail to the foil. The Airbolt brings it all together, from early and easy take-off with maximum acceleration to rail-to-rail carving, gliding, and pumping, requiring minimum sail/wing or paddle pressure. We learned that foiling is extremely easy and more fun, when the playing field is balanced.”

We’re glad to say that the new line comes with a full deck pad from the tail to around the front of the mast track, a handle and additional wing inserts, making the new Airbolt Carbon a wonderful crossover board. When the first generation Airbolt went to market, we were still trying to keep it as much of a ‘windsurf board’ as possible, meaning to keep the weight down everywhere we could. That being said – the practicality we realized, is that the slight addition of weight by using a larger pad and added a handle is much less noticeable than the benefits gained for ease of use! It can also crossover to a wing and SUP board more easily now.

The Deep Tuttle provides a way to transition to this board, and hopefully take your next steps to experiment with a more updated foil and our track system to really position everything EXACTLY for your ride.

The larger sizes provide an even more stable platform to start from and progress, or for taking advantage of the less powerful conditions. The smaller sizes will provide all the manoeuvrability and responsiveness that will surprise the most advanced riders.

The new 90 has been designed with the advanced foiler in mind. With the least amount of volume, it still provides a balanced flotation to fly on the lighter winds. In the air, the pulled in nose and tail increase manoeuvrability for effortless banks and turns and easy control through jumps and loops.

Moving the front straps to their inboard positions, paired with a single back strap, the 90 is as close to the sensation of riding a wave board on a foil as we have experienced. The forward geometry of the long Futures foil tracks can also be attributed to this, enhancing the board’s pivotal nature by placing the foil right under the rider’s feet, instantly reducing swing weight.

The 105 and 120 being the mid-sizes, offer the maximum combination of range and manoeuvrability.

The new 135 and the 150 feature a wider outline with the volume positioned further back for increased stability, low-end power and easier take-offs for beginners and light wind foilers alike.”

You can start flying on the Airbolt on as little as 8 knots, having the same up-wind angle as if you were on a giant formula board but faster, and with way less effort and a much smaller sail, and going down-wind, you can surf the chop, with the same sensation as if you were on a wave.

Outline: The board is long enough and with enough area in the front of the mast track to make the board bounce and accelerate as it touches.

The Airbolt is compatible with all the foils in the market thanks to its Double US box and Foilbox ready DTT, but it’s more comfortable with the bigger aspect wings, allowing you to take off with less speed compared to a high aspect foil.

The Airbolt is your all-in-one foil board, which can be easily adapted to your daily mood. If you are keen on SUP foiling, Wing, or Wind foiling, you will always have fun.

FEATURES –

• Bottom Shape & Cut-Outs -
  From the nose through the mid-section, the Airbolt is designed with deeper concaves and rail bevels for a maximum rebound when they inevitably touch down happens. The back of the board incorporates a rocker line and planing surface similar to our racing boards with the cut-outs of our KT pure foiling line to ensure an early glide and touch-less flights.

• Volume Distribution -
  Volume flow is placed towards the rear of the board to increase stability and early take-off in the lightest of breezes.

• Footstrap Inserts - The Airbolt offers a variety of footstrap insert options depending on the style of foiling that you are doing, seamlessly transitioning between Freeride or Freerace, Wing, SUP, or even Surf foiling in a single session.

• Foil Boxes - The boards feature longer track and foil box attachment systems. The track allows you to precisely balance your foil for perfect pressure, while the foil box accommodates all Tuttle options.
• Pad - Custom deck pad to accommodate all the uses. 
• Mini Handle -
  New comfortable yet reduced bottom handle right in front of the foil

• Leash Plug - Ideal for Wing or Surf Foil option.

• Compatibility - Designed around the MFC Helios foil range and no-cam freeride, freestyle, and wave sails. Considerable attention and plenty of testing hours was also spent with the different foils and multiple styles of foiling to ensure our mounting options and footstrap positions will work across the widest variety of styles, sizes and foils.

The Airbolt range is the perfect way to increase your water time and bring together all the foiling sports into one.

Vent Plug Screw –

This board comes with a vent plug screw that tightens onto a rubber seal ring. It is very important that the screw has been tightened before you use the board, and it’s equally important that it’s been removed before the board is transported by air, for example in your car, in summer, with the windows rolled up.

The screw needs to be tightened enough to seal the board, but not to where it might damage the rubber and/or the vent thread. Do not use power tools.

Make sure the rubber is not damaged and clean before installation. You can rinse it with fresh water. Do not get any water into the seal itself.
