Foil boards are unique amongst water sports as their volume, length, bottom shape, rails, strap compatibility, and construction will all influence how the foil board performs stopped in the water, in displacement mode, on plane, and in the air. In general, beginners will benefit from larger, more stable boards with most riders decreasing in board length as they progress through the sport. Wake foil boards are unique amongst foil activities as we often start with the board already under our feet. The board needs to be buoyant enough to give us feel and control, whilst not being too buoyancy that it makes it difficult to keep under our feet. In contrast to every other water sport, a foil board needs to release as quickly off the water surface as possible allowing the mast to get back to the correct height again. If the board sticks to the surface of the water, speed is lost, and lift reduced.
- UNIVERSAL FOIL MOUNTING SYSTEM: Most foil companies use an industry standard 9cm foil track so nearly every modern foil connects to nearly every modern board. While most foils are sold as packages, it is possible to purchase boards or foils separately.

Ronix 2024 Flyweight Pro Mod84 Wake Foil Board
Description
Since the summer of 1984 we have been modifying foils. Flying above combo skis, kneeboards, and other contraptions you have to buckle into. This new high-end board appropriately titled MOD84 is a tribute to the nearly 4 decades of our flight journey.
Most foil boards (including our popular 727 series) are designed to be ridden with your weight shifted back. This puts you in a nice comfortable position, and the foot straps will help lock you in for even added stability and response. Another style of foil boards is based on riding more over the center of the board. The mast is usually mounted 4+” further from the tail than most boards. Combine that with an overall thicker board made out of a lighter foam mixed with carbon and you have the basis for where wakefoiling is heading.
As opposed to pumping up and down – you rock the board forward and back which creates significantly more forward momentum to help keep you gliding as you are several hundred feet away from the boat. The concave, deep-v, and added buoyancy are all there to help bail you out when the board touches the water. This board has more deflection than any foil board we have ever ridden. Why no footstraps? Weight reductions – you wouldn’t think inserts weigh much – but they do. Also riders that are more into flips and spins will prefer the 727 style of board. This is a high-end surf purist shape that will get you pumping further than you have ever imagined.
