AFS Blackbird 6 Footers
Downwind and Wing Foil
The AFS Foils BlackBird 6’2 90L and 6’4 110L is a board developed for downwind SUP foil and wing foil. However it has become popular as a one board quiver, riders are enjoying its hull design for light wind take offs and it’s construction makes it reactive so when the wind picks up it stays controllable with a compact feel. For us we wing this 90% of sessions and a sinker when it’s blowing 25+ knots.
The AFS BlackBird is full carbon and made in France. Triaxial carbon fiber construction makes the board stiff, light and responsive. High density foam for extra stiffness.
