The AXIS ART V2 Front Wings are for riders who want real glide, speed and efficiency, but without stepping onto a foil that feels overly specialist or hard work in everyday conditions. In the AXIS range, the ART V2 sits neatly between the more surfy AXIS Spitfire Front Wings and the more glide-focused AXIS ART PRO Front Wings. That makes it a seriously smart choice for wingfoilers who want one front wing family that can cover a lot of ground. The ART V2 gives you the carry and speed you would expect from a higher aspect design, but with a more natural turning feel than a pure glide-focused foil. For many UK riders, that balance is exactly what makes it so appealing. Where the ART V2 sits in the AXIS range If you love the idea of the Spitfire but want more glide, better carry through lulls and a higher top end, the ART V2 is the natural step up. If you are looking at the ART PRO but want something that feels a touch looser, easier to turn and more forgiving day to day, the ART V2 often makes more sense. In simple terms, this is the high-aspect AXIS front wing for riders who want a foil that feels quick and efficient, but still fun and usable across a wide range of disciplines. Winging is the main focus, but the ART V2 also crosses over well into prone, SUP foiling, downwind, Foil Drive, wake and windsurf foiling. Why choose the AXIS ART V2? Fast without feeling twitchy – plenty of speed and glide, but with a calmer, more confidence-inspiring feel than many ultra high aspect foils. Excellent carry between gusts and sections – ideal if you want a foil that keeps moving and rewards efficient riding. More natural turning than a pure glide foil – easier to carve and redirect than many longer-span performance wings. Versatile across disciplines – a strong option for wingfoiling first, but equally relevant for prone, SUP, Foil Drive and downwind crossover use. A proper upgrade foil – a great choice for riders stepping on from more all-round or lower aspect AXIS wings. Choosing your ART V2 size As a rough guide, the smaller sizes favour more speed, tighter turning and stronger riders or stronger winds, while the larger sizes give easier lift, more low-end support and a more relaxed feel. 819 – the smallest and most lively in the range; best suited to lighter riders, stronger winds, faster winging, freestyle, prone and high-energy sessions. 879 – quick and loose, with a nice balance of speed and manoeuvrability for experienced riders. 939 – a very strong all-round performance size for a lot of wingfoilers wanting one foil to do plenty. 999 – more support, more glide and an easier low end; a great choice for lighter winds or riders wanting extra carry. 1099 – the easiest size in the lineup for light wind winging, small bumps, SUP/downwind crossover, Foil Drive and controlled wake use.

Not better for everyone, but definitely faster and more efficient. If your priority is extra glide, better carry and a higher performance ceiling, the ART V2 is the step up. If you want the loosest, most surfy and easiest carving feel, the Spitfire still has a strong case. Is the ART V2 easier to ride than the ART PRO? For many riders, yes. The ART V2 still gives you plenty of glide and speed, but it feels more rounded and less demanding than a purer high-aspect design. That makes it a very good choice if you want performance without going too specialist. Which ART V2 size should I choose? That depends on your weight, board, discipline and what you want the foil to feel like. Larger sizes bring easier lift and more support. Smaller sizes bring more speed and agility. If you are unsure, get in touch with your weight, board size and usual conditions and we will recommend the right option. Can I use the ART V2 for more than just wingfoiling? Yes. Winging is the obvious home for it, but the ART V2 also makes a lot of sense for prone, SUP foiling, downwind crossover, Foil Drive, wake and even windsurf foiling. That versatility is a big part of why this range has been so popular. What does the AXIS ART V2 fit? The ART V2 is built around the modern AXIS Black platform and is optimised for Advance+ B-Series fuselage setups. If you already own AXIS parts and are unsure what matches, ask us before ordering and we will help you avoid buying the wrong combination.
