alpinefoil WINDFOIL WING LIGHT WIND wingfoil CARBONE RS600

RSX 570 Wing super High Aspect AR13 made in France

The new RSX700 is a true little revolution at Alpinefoil. It brings a new level of purity to the glide.

It is one of the most beautiful surprises, as the performance exceeds the expectations we had set for ourselves.

Alpinefoil, une fabrication française, et une conception polyvalente multi-support !

In recent years, we've seen a real game-changer in foil sports. Nowadays, practitioners are multidisciplinary: they do wingfoiling, kitefoiling, windfoiling, downwind SUP foiling, and even pump foiling.

For this reason, Alpinefoil’s philosophy focuses on compatibility with all foils across all the disciplines of our brand. When we develop a new wing, we always take a cross-disciplinary approach. This means that the wings we design can be used for both wing foiling and other foil disciplines. Of course, they might be slightly more tailored to a specific discipline based on their characteristics, but fundamentally, everything is designed to ensure they perform well across various practices.

Moreover, all our wings are designed to be compatible with all the brand's stabilizers. The choice of stabilizer will depend solely on your preferences, skill level, and what you're looking for.

Designing foils: the impact of aspect ratio on performance!

Alpinefoil comprendre l aspect ratio d un foil 24b

What is the aspect ratio (elongation) of a foil wing?

The aspect ratio, like the area or wingspan, is one of the key characteristics of an airplane wing or a foil wing.

The aspect ratio of a wing is a term used in aerodynamics and sail design to describe the relationship between the wingspan (the distance between the tips of the wings) and the wing area. It's calculated using the following formula:

Calcul de l aspect ratio d une aile de foil

A high aspect ratio means that the wing is long and narrow, while a low aspect ratio indicates that the wing is shorter and wider.

Implications of the aspect ratio:

Performance: Wings with a high aspect ratio tend to provide better lift and reduced drag in the air/water, which can improve efficiency and speed.
Maneuverability: Wings with a lower aspect ratio are generally more maneuverable and responsive, which can be desirable in disciplines like freestyle or surfing.
Stability: A high aspect ratio can also contribute to better stability in flight, while a lower aspect ratio may make the wing more sensitive.
In summary, the aspect ratio is a key factor in wing design, affecting performance, maneuverability, and flight behavior.

Alpinefoil, the only foil manufacturer to keep backward compatibility of its wings across all disciplines!

We’re committed to not repeating the mistakes of the past, especially those we encountered during our windsurfing days. Over the years, some board brands have changed how their fins connect, forcing users to switch boards just to use the latest fin models.

When we started designing and manufacturing our foils, our top priority was to create a universal fuselage/wings connection system that could accommodate nearly any foil wing shape out there.

Thanks to this mindset we kicked off back in 2010, all wings designed since then are compatible with all our foils. This approach makes Alpinefoil the only brand to have adopted such a compatibility-saving strategy, ensuring that your investment won’t lose value due to compatibility issues. It’s worth mentioning that some used foils currently lose up to 90% of their value simply because the manufacturer didn’t maintain backward compatibility.

GAME CHANGER !! This RSX is a game changer! Glide ratio 13Glissssssssssse! A condor! Normally, I wait for quite a few sessions before giving feedback, but right from the second session, it was clear! I'm really surprised by how this wing glides; it opens up new horizons and sensations! The glide is incredibly enjoyable, like well-waxed skis or high-end roller skates! Its aspect ratio and slenderness might look intimidating at first, making you think it's going to be technical, but honestly, it's very easy to take off and pilot. There's no need to pump out of maneuvers; it just glides, glides, glides! Of course, it may turn a bit wider than a DW of the same size, but this RsX 840 takes off easily, just like the DW 980, and it glides way better, allowing you to enjoy every little bump to keep gliding! I was surprised because I was trying to pump much too early out of a slight slope, but with this RSX, you can double the glide distance of the DW 980 when you're downwind. Despite its relatively small chord, its profile allows for easy pumping. As for takeoff, I was expecting a bit of technique required, like with the RS 600... not at all, it's pretty progressive—take off by gaining speed or by pumping... easy. The most surprising part is the maneuvers; since it continues to glide for a long time, it feels effortless. Of course, I started pushing into carving, and I'm nowhere near exploring all its capabilities. Personally, I was a fan of the Regatta back in the day, and I was eagerly waiting for a high-aspect ratio wing with a modern profile... here we have a front wing that combines super glide, pumping capabilities, and downwind performance. I've used it in wind conditions ranging from 8 to 20 knots so far. I'm looking forward to the next few days of strong wind to let this Condor soar faster and further. EDIT: 30 knots at Nautique, midday break, heading upwind at a crazy angle, then descending in the swell faccccciiiiiiiiiiile.... I didn't want to stop! A CONDOR!
