UniFoil

Introducing Unifoil’s newest mast series the Race, made in deluxe high-modulus carbon. The 75cm Race & 83cm Race masts are designed for foilers seeking maximum speed and efficiency. These Race masts enable riders to accelerate, glide, and achieve unprecedented top speeds. Crafted from high-modulus carbon with a specialized layup, the masts boast a highly stiff yet ultra-thin, tapered profile that minimizes drag and maximizes speed and efficiency. This makes them ideal for riders who want to push their limits and achieve their highest top speeds and best times. Couple a Race mast with any Unifoil wing and experience a noticeable increase in speed. The 80 Torque mast is the ultimate choice for riders seeking the perfect balance of rigidity, torsional stiffness, and speed. Notably faster than the 800 Progression mast, it offers a bit less torsional stiffness in exchange for greater speed. Its high-modulus carbon construction allows for a thinner profile, increasing speed while maintaining stiffness, making it the ideal well-rounded choice for versatility across all foiling disciplines. If you could have only one mast, this is the one.

The Afterburner tails are our thinnest, highest aspect ratio tails to date. Afterburners are designed with a thin, low-drag profile, optimized for high speed, and feature a down-curved shape that enhances roll and carving control. These tails are loose, yet hold confidently through a turn. Afterburners take carving, responsiveness, and glide to the next level. Why Choose Afterburner?
Compared to the Progression tails, the Afterburners are quicker, more efficient, and tuned for ultimate control in wave riding. Constructed in quality, high-modulus carbon, these tails are shockingly stiff for such a thin and efficient profile. Pairing: * 14.5cm Afterburner: Pairs great with larger front wings (150cm²+), tightening turning radius and reducing drag. * 15.5cm Afterburner: Offers greater stability and control, especially when paired with smaller wings (150cm² and under). Use Case:
Afterburners are designed for carving, control, and speed when riding waves; however, their low-drag profile and high efficiency make them equally exceptional for downwinding, providing smooth glides, reduced fatigue, and long glides. Try an Afterburner tail and feel the difference!

Unifoil Evolution Front Wings.

The Evolution Wings handle breaches with ease. If you’re pushing hard and breach the wing, these foils will seamlessly transition back into the water. Using similar spans to the Progression series but with a slightly higher aspect ratio, the Evolutions bring more glide, increasing efficiency and extending ride time. You’ll also enjoy a higher top-end and better average speed compared to a similar sized Progression wing.

Enhanced Control Evolutions have a slimmer foil section while maintaining a low pitching moment, keeping the foil pitch-neutral longer through the speed range. This means that as you accelerate, you won’t feel a nose-down pull, making for smoother, more predictable transitions in drops, carves, and on steep faces. Carves on the Evolutions allow for more drive and aggressive manoeuvres, greatly diminishing moments of excessive lift. In addition, the Evolution design allows for a narrower stance while maintaining a very balanced feel, giving riders more agility and control without sacrificing stability. This results in even tighter, more responsive turns and greater confidence in dynamic conditions.

Unifoil Progression 800 Mast

Comments by designer Erik Antonson:

"My goal in designing the progression mast was to create the ultimate surf mast.  Flex is the enemy of response, both in surfing and pumping, so we've made the mast a touch thicker at the fuse connection, increasing stiffness.  It may be a surprise to hear its a touch thicker than the Katana, and in theory, slower, but in practice the added stiffness is allowing us to fly higher on the mast, longer, reducing the wetted area, and gaining efficiency. This results in a more efficient pump thorough a reduction in drag. While riding a larger wing, or being a heavier rider, the benefits of reducing mast flex is immediately felt in overall control of the foil. 

The leading edge of the mast is vertical, and the bottom 40% does not taper, so you have an incredibly reliable foil section in the water during turns, creating consistent and confident movement. We've found we can push harder through our turns with increased flow.  The mast is 800mm, which is my favorite length for prone, tow and downwind.  The baseplate has been redesigned completely compared to the Katana.  The bolts are set closer which allows for more forwards placement in the tracks. 1.2 inches in mast position is gained. The baseplate is tapered at the mast connection, additionally reducing initial drag on takeoffs or touchdowns. Since riding the Progression 800 mast,  it's all I want to ride now."
 

Unifoil Progression foil tail wing.

The Progression tails are tuned to a neutral foot pressure. They have evolved out of the Shiv tail, the most popular of the 3 packs we’ve sold. The Progression tail is fairly thin giving it some extra speed and pumping efficiency over the Shiv. Unifoil also pulled the tips in a bit more for sharper angles in turns.

Unifoil Progression Front foil wings.

The groundbreaking collaboration between Erik Antonson (the Progression Project) and Unifoil’s designer and inventor of the high aspect wing, Clifford Coetzer is finally here.

This is no ordinary foil, this wing is the result of uncompromising dedication and attention to detail. Erik, and Unifoil’s years of combined knowledge and experience designing and studying foil sections, profiles, outlines and cambers have gone into the design that we are calling the High Aspect 3.0.

The Progression gives riders a stable platform to build on whether you are a beginner to intermediate rider wanting to figure out your pump, or a pro doing backflips, we have sizes and setups to suit all. Put simply, the Progression wing will take you from where you currently are, and propel your riding level into the stratosphere.

Technical Specifications:

Each model is available in 13” (330mm) and 14” (355mm). 13 suits lighter riders and more high-performance riding,14 suits heavier riders (80 kg plus) or for increased pumpability.

Unifoil designer Clifford Coetzer has come up with a novel approach to stablitizers that lets you find exactly the right feel to suit your riding style. Using the same cutting-edge stabilizer outline, he has created three very different profiles for back-footed, neutral and front-footed riders. Take the outline that suits you and shim it according to the conditions.

Hyper² is the first wing in our range that utilizes our new 2-bolt fuselage system for an easier, yet tighter fit. This wing design screams high performance. Upgraded for 2022, the Hyper² has been designed to have the same look and feel as the original Hyper, but it is much faster and more efficient, with a broader speed range and a much higher top end. The thinner profile and narrower tips produce less drag. High-performance high-aspect upgraded for 2022 Faster and more efficient than previous Hyper Higher top-end speed Lower lift coefficient producing smoother take-offs making it easier to ride Intermediate to pro guys for winging, pump, down-winders and small waves Tighter turning radius for even tighter turns If you want to go like a rocket, this is the wing for you. The Hyper² has a lower lift coefficient producing smoother take-offs making it easier to ride, and giving it an even more balanced feel than its popular predecessor. Designed for intermediate to pro guys who like to pump, ride down-winders and ride small waves and pump back out the back without stopping. We have tightened the turning radius for even tighter turns. If speed, pump and carve is what you are after in a high-aspect wing, the Hyper² is the wing for you. Five size profiles provide options for high-aspect foilers no matter what they want to do. Whether you want to go down-winding, kiting, wind winging, or pump around the local foil park all afternoon, the Hyper² is your go-to. Note: May not be compatible with the older 1 bolt fuse. Requires new 2-bolt fuselage.

Our new Katana super-stiff mast construction was inspired by traditional Japanese sword making. To forge the toughest blades, swordsmiths combined an outer layer of hard steel with a softer iron core for strength and stiffness. Similarly, we take extremely stiff high modulus carbon and blend it with intermediate modulus for strength. The result is a mast that is super-stiff but unlike many other masts on the market, remains really fast, and has a much higher breaking point than high modulus on its own. Combined with our one-piece construction and slightly thicker profile, we have created the fastest, strongest, and stiffest carbon mast on the market.

Features:

• Stiffer feel
• Thicker chord and profile for reduced twist and flex
• Direct connection
• High performance
• Designed for High Aspect range

 

New slotted holes that accept countersunk titanium hardware that makes for an even slicker fitment. Titanium wingnuts are optional for adjustments on the fly.

Better fit with taper-lock on mast to fuse connection. This holds the mast in place and doesn’t just rely on the screws to take the weight. Resulting in a more secure connection with no play.

Unifoil Vyper Front Wings

• This is the one foil to rule them all.
• Designed by Adam Bennetts & Clifford Coetzer in search of the ultimate all-around surf foil.
• A cross between the Vortex and the Hyper.
• The carve and ease of turning of the Vortex.
• The ease of pump and efficiency of the Hyper.

What do you get when you mix a Hyper with a Vortex?

Introducing the Vyper Designed by Adam Bennetts & Clifford Coetzer in search of the ultimate all-around surf foil, the Vyper was born. A cross between the Vortex and the Hyper. We took the best attributes of each model. The carve and ease of turning of the Vortex, and the ease of pump and efficiency of the Hyper.

This is the one foil to rule them all.

After many prototypes, and many hours of testing various aspects of the foil by our top team riders Adam Bennetts and Dylan Wichmann, everything from the wingspan to the thickness of the foil was experimented with, until the best setup for speed, glide, and performance was chosen.

A span that is wide enough to create enough lift, but not too wide to make turning difficult. Just enough down-sweep on the tips to loosen the foil up, but not lose efficiency. Just enough thickness in the profile to generate lift, but not create too much drag.

If you love to rip on the wave and want to take your foiling to the next level, from high-speed carves to ping down the face and hitting hard G forces, the Vyper will be sure to bite.

If there is only one model you need to own, it’s the Vyper.
