SROKA in the new Foiling Magazine!
In the 8th edition of Foiling Magazine (Summer 2021), we share an incredible session in the Canary Islands, in Lanzarote. Gabriel Bachelet joined us to test the new S-Foil High Aspect 2021. The Canaries are a little paradise on Earth, especially for testing our entire range in water close to 18 degrees in winter.
There are year-round sailing conditions, unique landscapes, sunny and windy spots. Nicknamed Europe’s little Hawaii, we think it’s the perfect destination for having fun at Foil. We are sure to have the ideal conditions, every day, in any season. Also, the other advantage of the Canary Islands, is that it is an affordable destination in price, to maximize the pleasure. The change of scenery, the limited number of practitioners, the atmosphere in and out of the water make it a nice place to sail.
SURF FOIL SESSION IN EUROPEAN HAWAII
Gabriel did three sessions a day because the conditions were so perfect, to test the new foil. This trip allowed us to evaluate the performance of each High Aspect S-Foil according to the waves, in pumping, jumping, back flip, etc. Here, he performs a back flip with the S-Foil SROKA HA 1190 Lift, very easy for pumping and gliding with optimal lift. This shoot was done on January 1, 2021. Very heavy conditions were forecast for three days. But by the time the swell wrapped around the island, the conditions had become perfect: very calm and windless. We were alone on the spot due to the semi-confinement period on the island, and the golden light was perfect for the shoot. It was a magical session, to start the year 2021.
THE GAB QUIVER IN FOIL SURFING
S-Foil High Aspect 1190 Lift
For surfers Foil, SUP foil or Wake Foil. The 1190 Lift fin has been designed with a load-bearing profile (15 to 20% more lift than the HA 1190 S). Its slim profile, large wingspan and low chord ensure optimal speed, less drag. This increases pumping efficiency with the least effort, to reconnect the waves to infinity, with great gliding efficiency. This new S-Foil High Aspect 2021 is 50% stiffer than the 2020 model, with a weight reduction of around 500g.
