Glossary

A — Alpha. The proven, do-everything line: find your wing, rip on it forever.

Z — Zenith. The newest performance line, for riders chasing the peak.

X — Experimental. Still in iteration; specs publish when the geometry locks.

s — Speed. Top-end speed: slippery, low drag, how fast it will run.

g — Glide. Efficiency and pump carry: how far each stroke takes you.

u — Upwind. How high it points and how little effort it costs to climb.

l — Lift. Early takeoff and low-speed flight: how easily it gets up.

c — Carve. Roll rate and agility: reactive, lively, how it banks.

M — standard thicker tapered mast. Stable, trusted, broad use, larger-wing support.

MX — thinner wetted performance mast. Faster, cleaner, reduced drag.

MTC — Twin Connection modular mast. Pedestal or tuttle quick mount, board-side flexibility.

ST-A, now ST-C — Carve stabilizer. Five sizes: three Pizza-shape for the carve wings, the two CR for the S wings.

ST-L — Lift stabilizer. Support under the 801, 901 and 750s, plus the one winglet tip in the range.

ST-S — Speed stabilizer. The Pointer planform — lowest drag and the earliest release.

OX — OX Lock quick connect. Fast, clean OXZA connection system.

T8 — compatibility connection. Migration path for SAB / Phantasm-style users.

EZ — connection used across Carve / Lift / Upwind wings.

AL — 7075-T6 Aluminium. Durable, proven, accessible.

CF — Carbon Fiber. Lightweight, premium performance.

TI — Titanium. Maximum stiffness, corrosion resistance, high-end durability.

Span — tip to tip across the frontwing. The first number to read: it predicts roll rate and how the wing turns.

Profile — the wing's section shape. Decides where lift comes from: low-speed lift, acceleration, drag and top-end speed.

Planform — the wing's outline seen from above. How the area is distributed across the span.

True ride height — the pair of measurements that describe a foil setup honestly. True foil height runs from the bottom of the board to the bottom of the fuselage; true rider height runs from the deck under your feet to the same point.

Balance point — how far the mast sits ahead of or behind the frontwing's lift. It decides which foot carries more of what the foil is doing, and how hard you have to hold it there.

Lever arm — the distance from the frontwing back to the stabilizer. Fuselage length is what sets it, and it is half of what decides pitch control: the other half is how much force the stabilizer makes.

Pitch moment — stabilizer force multiplied by the lever arm. The same moment can come from more force on a short lever or less force on a long one; those two feel different and do not cost the same in drag.

Incidence — the angle a wing or stabilizer runs at relative to the rest of the foil. Raise the stabilizer's and it makes more force at the same speed; lower it and the foil feels freer.

Shim — a thin wedge under the stabilizer that changes its incidence. Stocked at 0.5°, 1° and 1.5°. A fraction of a degree is felt because it moves a force acting at the end of a long lever.
