It’s important to know that it’s not advisable to mix brands, especially when it comes to the board and foil. Not all foils work under all boards, as each manufacturer has its own specificities.

The wing board foil

This is the part of the board that will come into contact with the water and enable you to take off. There‘ s no point in taking a board that’s too small. In fact, it will handicap you more than anything else. So, first of all, you need to keep your level in mind and avoid overestimating it… Otherwise, you’ll find yourself in much greater difficulty. Choosing the right board size is essential to progress. It’s always a good idea to bear in mind that a larger wing board will be necessary in light wind conditions. It will also help you get back to port when the wind drops.

For a beginner, it’s best to choose a board that’s about 20-30 liters heavier than the rider weighs. A rider with better control will opt for a board equal to or 10 liters heavier. And an expert rider will opt for a board with a wing smaller than his weight.

The rigid wing board foil

It’s easier to learn, glides better on the water and tends to bounce more, making it easier to take off. The rigid board is the most widely used on the spots, and comes in different constructions: fiberglass sandwich (offering a solid board that’s less expensive than carbon) or carbon sandwich (more expensive, the carbon sandwich offers a more solid board that’s also much lighter), with multiple shapes and sizes…

And therefore all budgets. Perfect for all riders, from beginner to expert, offering greater scope for progression. Offering greater dynamism and control. Expect to pay between €800 and €2,000, depending on brand and construction. At Sroka we offer a wide range of boards to suit all levels and riding styles, from the Skyrider to the Elite, there’s something for every taste and level.

The foil is one of the most important pieces of wingfoil equipment. It’s essential to choose the right foil, but also a quality foil that can evolve with you as you progress. This is the piece of equipment that has evolved the most in recent years. So it’s best to opt for a recent foil, so you can benefit from all the latest technologies, and keep changing the wings to keep up with your progress. Composed of different parts: the mast, fuselage, fin and stabilizer.

foil carbon

The foil in carbon, which is the most efficient foil if well built. To find out all you need to know about building a foil carbon, we’ve written an article above. But it’s also the most expensive. There’s no such thing as a good-quality, affordable, lightweight carbon mast. If it’s cheap, it’s likely to be foamy and therefore soft underfoot. For a foil carbon mast, you’ll need to spend around €2,200, not counting the wings and stabilizers that will be added. A foil carbon is therefore mainly recommended for advanced riders looking to push themselves even further than with an foil aluminum.

The foil alu, is the most common foil on the market, being cheaper than carbon and perfect for most riders. Expect to pay around 800-1000€ for a complete foil alu. Sroka offers you ultra-evolutive aluminum foils with which you can adapt all our fins and stabilizers. If you’re not sure whether to choose a carbon or aluminum foil, read the article above.

At Sroka we offer you the best carbon mat on the market, a jewel of technology that will take you beyond your limits on the spot. This high-quality, ultra-rigid mat is upgradable thanks to Sroka’s foil compatibility, and will accompany you on all your sessions, whether you’re surfing, freeriding, freestyling or racing.

Accessories and equipment must be taken seriously, as they guarantee both your safety and your enjoyment while out on the water. Equip yourself with a temperature-appropriate wetsuit, a helmet and an impact vest are highly recommended. A helmet costs around €50 and a vest around €150. The Impact vest PRO Sroka is €149.00. Don’t forget your board and sail leashes – they’re your life insurance ;).
