Hyperglide D/LAB - Ultimate Downwind Performance Hyperglide D/LAB - Ultimate Downwind Performance Introducing a new addition to our Foil Line-Up for 2025 - the Hyperglide D/LAB, the pinnacle of performance for Downwinders, designed to deliver unmatched efficiency and speed. Developed for pure downwind performance in faster bumps and ocean swells, this foil offers exceptional acceleration and forward projection, making it easy to maintain speed while providing agility and control in turns. Although our Glide 2.0 wings have been proven great for downwinding, with good speed, easy take-offs and great maneuverability, we’ve made an even faster and more dedicated downwind weapon that meets the demands of everyone who is into high-performance downwinding and downwind racing. With the Hyperglide D/LAB, we went back to the drawing board and turned all the dials to full performance! With an ultra-low drag design, the Hyperglide D/LAB maximizes efficiency and achieves the highest speeds in downwind conditions. Its aspect ratio of 14.2-14.4 ensures maximum glide efficiency, while the new profile boasts highly efficient lift-to-drag values, providing smooth yet powerful performance. The foil's winglets minimize induced drag and tip vortices. Paired with the new Stabilizer H, this combination improves pumping efficiency, allowing you to accelerate with every bit of ocean energy and maintain high average speeds. Constructed using a computer-simulated D/LAB layup, the Hyperglide features a special mix and orientation of high modulus and intermediate modulus carbon fibers. This results in highly optimized flex and strength values, ensuring superior performance and durability. Available in 2 sizes: 680cm² for big, fast bumps and lighter riders, and 880cm² for heavier foilers or smaller bumps.
