The NSI® Foil Wing Tip Protectors come with two-covers, one for each wing tip and are connected with a bungee cord that goes though a hole in the cover and is attached with a knot. The length of the cord can be adjusted for different wing spans and then trimmed to size, ensuring a snug fit around the foil wing tips.

The covers are available in Small (2.5″ wide) and Large (3″ wide) sizes, giving you the option to choose the right size for your wing tips, or to use both depending on the size of your foil. Sold separately.

 Welcoming John and Nathan Florence to our family marks a significant milestone in our journey.

The collaboration represents a shared vision to expand the sport of foiling into modern surf culture. We invite everyone to join us in navigating the unexplored and redefining the limits of the surfing realm.

Florence 21 X

The Florence 21 X mixes traits from the 25Glide, 20Carve, and 21Flow all in the name of making an ultra high- performance downwind tail. The result is a tail that Nathan describes as “being covered in dish soap, the glide is psycho”. The medium length fuselage provides just enough stability, while the low angle of incidence provides limitless glide to connect bumps.

Florence 21 X

PRODUCT COMPARISONS

Vs. 20 Carve

The Florence 21 X has a longer fuselage and lower angle of incidence. Result = More glide and stability at the sacrifice of more drawn out turns.

Vs. 25 Glide

The Florence 21 X has a similar length fuselage but higher angle of incidence and smaller surface area wing. Result = More front foot pressure and similar glide.

Vs. 21 Flow

The Florence 21 X has a shorter fuselage and lower angle of incidence. Result = More glide and tighter turns at the sacrifice of stability.

Florence 130 X

The 130 Florence X builds upon the DNA of the fabled 120 High Aspect and 150 High Aspect X. Tuned to perform as John and Nathan’s downwind daily driver, this wing has the top and low end needed to enjoy downwind runs in all conditions with speed and style. While this wing is geared for downwind performance, it works incredibly well for winging and foiling in small surf. Allowing endless glide and the ability to easily connect waves. The high modulus construction provides unmatched stiffness and responsiveness. Simply put, this is one of the best wings we’ve ever built.

Florence 130 X

PRODUCT COMPARISONS

Vs. 120 High Aspect

The 130 Florence X has increased efficiency and glide due to the higher aspect ratio. The wider wingspan sacrifices a slight amount of roll in the turns vs. the 120 High Aspect.

Vs. 150 High Aspect X

The 130 Florence X provides higher average speeds and more aggressive turning characteristics while still providing the excellent range the 150 High Aspect X is known for.

This adapter was built to fit newer model heavy duty pump hoses (2016 and newer.)  The adapter does also fit older model pump hoses (prior to 2016) very tightly but does not lock in like standard OEM adapters.  The adapter can be used as is or may need to be modified by filing down the tiny nub near the ridge of the adapter where it connects to the hose.

Please note, this is very similar to, but not the same as the Cabrinha adapter, Best 2008 adapter, or North 2014 and newer adapter.  It will probably not work with these three kite brands.

These are Replacement Titanium Track Nuts for use on any hydrofoil that uses the M8 or M6 mounting hardware like Slingshot, Lift, and others.

Why Titanium:

Titanium is highly valued for its high tensile strength, as well as its light weight, corrosion resistance, and ability to withstand extreme temperatures. It’s as strong as steel but 50% lighter giving it a greater Strength to Weight Ratio.

Titanium is the best material to resist the corrosion performance of seawater at room temperature, and it has excellent corrosion resistance even in polluted seawater and hot seawater. The unparalleled performance of titanium in marine settings has led engineers to refer to it as “ocean metal”. While other metals such as steel, copper, and brass are prone to pitting, crevice corrosion, and microbiologically influenced corrosion, titanium is unique in its resistance to the corroding effects of saltwater and the marine atmospheric environment.

Includes:

• 1 Titanium M8 or M6 Track Nut

Key Features:

• Precision CNC Machined to exacting tolerances for a precise finish
• Highly corrosion resistant for a long life
• As Strong as steel and 50% lighter
• Highest strength-to-weight ratio of all known metal
