GLIDE SWIFT CARBON

FEEL THE DIFFERENCE

Experience the ultimate freedom on the water with the brand-new Glide Swift Carbon - the perfect all-round foil for winging!

The innovative rounded delta middle section and unique high aspect wings provide early, and easy lift combined with maximum glide performance and speed. The Glide Swift Carbon is the perfect choice for EVERYONE, from beginners to experts. It is easy to control and offers a very early take-off even without perfect pumping technique.

 

 

KEY FEATURES - 

> MAXIMISED EFFICIENCY - The innovative Delta center area and the unique High Aspect Wings ensure early and easy lift in combination with an unsurpassed glide and maximum speed. The GLIDE SWIFT CARBON is the perfect choice for EVERYONE, from beginners to newcomers.

> FAST AND STABLE BY DESIGN - The Carbon Front Wing, which has a curved front edge with outer high-aspect sections and a moderate center sweep, maximizes maneuverability and helps to better control hard turns. The low drag wingtips reduce resistance while reducing the risk of injury.

> ONE WING FITS ALL - All GLIDE and GLIDESWIFT front wings and stabilizers are interchangeable and modular.

> ADVANCEMENTS - This is a departure from the original Glide foil concept. The Glide Swift is a medium / high aspect ratio foil which combines the glide and performance of high aspect ratio foils with the ease of use of medium aspect ratio foils.

> FRONT WING DETAILS - The carbon front wing, which features an inflected leading edge with outer high-aspect sections and a moderate center sweep, maximizes agility and helps to control hard turns. The low-drag wingtips reduce drag and decrease the risk of injury.

> BACK WING DETAILS - The tail is a swept wing design with turned up wing tips. It's optimized for a balance between speed, stability and turning. In terms of stability it punches above its weight for the area due to the sweep. At the same time, it offers extremely responsive yet forgiving turning.

> VARIABLE ASPECT RATIO - The aspect ratio of the front wings changes from 9.1 in the smallest 600cm2 wing to 7.3 in the biggest 1450 cm2 wing. This allows us to maximize the glide in each size without the larger wings becoming difficult to turn and control.

> TECHNICAL ADVANCEMENTS - 

The super stiff carbon mast and optimized mast-fuselage connection provide maximum speeds and a direct steering feel with their high stability.

The integrated blended-fuselage connection reduces drag and improves stiffness by increasing chord thickness at the fuse.

The turned up, rounded wing tips deliver optimum performance while reducing the risk of injury.

> COMPATIBILITY - All wings of the Glide system are compatible with one and other. You can choose to purchase an entire new Glide Swift system or just the front and tail wings. 

> STREAMLINED CONNECTIONS - Glide Swift Carbon features an updated wing to fuselage connection for maximum strength, stiffness and the most streamlined water flow possible.
