Description

The Airwave Fuselage is designed without compromise.

Our design brief was clear: “must be hydro-dynamically efficient, has to be strong, stiff, cannot bend, with solid mast and wing connections and it must hold up to wipe-outs in the shore break”.


 

Each precision fuselage is individually CNC-cut from aircraft grade 6061-T6 aluminium and is anodized for protection and a great look. The regressed mounting point for the mast creates additional rigidity, strength and durability.

Important! Design changes on black fuselage

Tail mount flipped
After countless hours of testing and an appropriate amount of computational fluid dynamics, we found that flipping the tail eliminates significant drag and turbulence, so from now on, rear wings are mounted on the top of the fuselage.

Inserted threads
Adding marine-grade stainless steel insert threads has drastically increased the integrity of the Airwave system

Reworked tail section
By adding thickness and width, NSP fuselages will now accommodate deeper screws for a more secure connection

COMPATIBILITY NOTE
Check the chart for fuselage compatibility with masts, front wings and rear wings.

Which length is good for me?

The longer your fuselage, the steadier and stronger the lift you are going to get out of your setup. The less distance between your front wing and stabilizer wing, the more squirrely and turn-happy the foil is going to get.

For high-wind applications like windsurfing, the benefits of a longer fuselage work in your favour, adding balance, glide and directional stability to your ride. In the more surfier applications like prone foiling or wake foiling, you are typically going to benefit from a shorter fuselage and the ability to make short-radius turns, quick pumps and rail-to-rail manoeuvres.

Think of it this way, the shorter your fuselage, the smaller the radius your two wings (front wing and rear wing) becomes, allowing for quick and responsive riding. The responsiveness does come at a price, as the efficiency of the foil decreases, meaning less lift and less leverage in our pumping.

A longer Airwave fuselage means stability and great leverage, whereas the shorter Airwave fuselage will be more fun, more responsive and better suited for turnier applications.

Sizing

57.5cm
Fuselage is ultra-short and perfect for advanced wake- and surf foilers wanting to go from rail-to-rail as quick as possible and perform lightning fast turns.

60cm 
Fuselage is super-responsive but balanced, your gybe is going to be tighter, consistent and most of all, easier. Your pumping cadence also improves, allowing for some very big wings to be pumped.

70cm
Fuselage is included as the go-to fuselage in the Modular 70 Kit (orange), the 70cm is our best allround option for foilers wanting stability, prolonged glide and efficiency.The 70cm is also ideal for downwind runs (1kg).

85cm
Fuselage is our longest, stiffest and most directional fuselage. Great for beginning foilers trying to wake for the first time, and wingfoilers looking to get the most out of their larger kit (1.2kg)
