Description

The Manta always finds room in the back of my van for when there is the slightest bump or when its firing. The Manta, while primarily a surf foil board, is also a lot of fun on shorter downwind runs. This board however, is designed to catch waves and swells that are not ideal for traditional surfing.

In Hawaii we have a lot of trade winds which can make for messy wave conditions, but with the Manta foil board, you don’t have to miss a day on the water. This board pops up on foil, glides on low energy swell and can carve up a storm of its own. Call the Manta your ‘daily driver.’

This board is stable and has enough length, volume and glide to lift you up out to foil in the big blue, yet has a low enough swing weight that you can also drop in, kick out, and pump your board back out to the lineup for another ride.
