Product Description

Riblet Front Wings are excellent for wing- and surf foiling in high-wind conditions, but will also perform as endless downwinders for advanced foilers who can leverage the efficient shape of these wings. 

Striking a perfect balance between efficient lift and rail-to-rail maneuvering, a Riblet wing is incredibly responsive. The new anhedral design translates into glide, stability and excellent speed. The improved control adds to a feeling of “being connected” once you are on foil.

Riblet Rear Wings

For the fastest and best possible performance from your Riblet Front Wings, make sure to use them in combination with the Riblet Rear Wings and the new top-mounted fuselage (black).

Why Riblet Front Wings? – Biomimicry?

​​The tubercles, or large raised bumps, on the leading-edge of whale fins and foil and outline of a Manta Ray have inspired this design using scientifically proven features to provide additional control, hold and propulsion. ​

​NSP was inspired by these phenomena and has created the new Riblet front and rear wings, striking a perfect balance between efficient lift and rail-to-rail maneuvering. ​

​The new anhedral design translates into glide, stability and excellent speed.

DIMENSIONS OF THE RIBLET FRONT WING

The larger the foil the more lift it can give at slower speeds and the easier it can be to control. The smaller the foil the less lift you get at slow speeds, but can give more performance for turns and snaps on waves.
