MODULAR ALUMINIUM PUMPFOIL – ALPINEFOIL

The high-performance aluminium pump foil, made in France

 Recognised French expertise in the foil world

Since 2007, AlpineFoil has been one of the pioneers of foiling. Made in France with unique know-how, AlpineFoil products stand out for their glide, durability and hydrodynamic performance.
The Modular Aluminium PumpFoil is the culmination of this expertise: a high-performance, light and upgradeable aluminium foil, designed for pump foiling and all related disciplines.

Packed with technology and innovation

  • Ultra-thin 14.8 mm mast: glide comes first

The Modular Aluminium mast is only 14.8 mm thick, compared with an average of 19 mm on most pumpfoils on the market.
This thinness reduces drag in the water, improves directional stability and considerably reduces the energy needed when pumping. The result: less drag, better glide and a significant weight saving.

  • Mirror-polished finish: maximum hydrodynamic performance

While most foils on the market are sandblasted to hide surface irregularities, AlpineFoil chose a polished mast. This polishing process removes any surface grain and greatly improves how the mast cuts through the water.
The result: less drag, more glide and higher speed, every pump foil or pumping session.

  • Minimal weight: the lightest aluminium pumpfoil

Thanks to an optimised design and top-quality materials, the Modular Aluminium is the lightest aluminium pump foil on the market, up to 2 kg lighter than competing models.
This weight saving improves not only lift, but also how easily the foil pumps back up and how agile it is.
Ideal for riders up to 80 kg, especially beginners or anyone looking for an energy-efficient foil.

Full modularity and compatibility

The Modular Aluminium PumpFoil is fully modular. It is designed to evolve with your riding:

You can replace just the aluminium mast with a carbon mast, without changing the rest of your foil.

It is compatible with every AlpineFoil wing since the brand was founded.

This means you are investing in a durable, upgradeable system that adapts to every discipline:
Pump Foil, Wing Foil, Surf Foil, SUP Foil, Kite Foil…
Simply change the front wing to adapt the foil's behaviour to your discipline.

Designed for today's riders

When designing the Modular Aluminium, AlpineFoil started from a blank sheet to create a foil suited to today's multi-discipline riders. Whether you want pure pumping, dockstart or wingfoil, this foil meets every requirement for performance, upgradeability and compatibility.

High-end construction, made in France

100% made in France in the AlpineFoil workshops

Wings and stabilizers identical to our high-end models (such as the Hawk V3 Titanium)

Full compatibility across the AlpineFoil ranges

Premium finish, rigorous design and an ultra-competitive price: from only €1,400

The DK 1240 front wing: the benchmark for learning to PumpFoil

For beginners, AlpineFoil recommends the DK 1240 wing, developed specifically to make learning pump foil and dockstart easier.
This wing offers:

Lift from 3 km/h, ideal for a gentle start and to give your brain time to learn the movements 

A glide very different from typical beginner wings: some riders pump for more than 5 minutes

A design specifically adapted to the drop start technique, the simplest and most effective way to learn dockstart,
much easier than a running dock start, which requires a lot of flexibility and perfect timing of foot and hand placement on the board.

 Testimonial: thanks to the DK 1240 and the drop start technique developed by Yvon Labarte, at 53 I managed my first 30 metres of pumping after just one afternoon of trying!

In short

The main strengths of the Modular Aluminium Pumpfoil 

Thin mast (14.8 mm): a big gain in glide and speed, letting you pump much longer

Polished finish: a noticeable gain in glide and reduced foil drag, considerably reducing pumping effort

Featherweight: up to 2 kg lighter than the competition

Upgradeable: switch to a carbon mast while keeping the plate, fuselage and wings 

Made in France: quality, precision and durability

The first high-end aluminium foil at a competitive price, made in France

Compatible with every discipline: Pump Foil, Wing Foil, Surf Foil, SUP Foil, Kite Foil
