SUPER TRENCH FOIL BOARDS

DC FOIL DRIVE BOARDS

SUPER TRENCH FOIL BOARDS

Available now is our new “Super Trench” model with an extended recessed channel for the foil drive base unit. The track system sits at the bottom of the recessed trench removing all drag and allowing a smooth passage of water over and around.

Dale was the first shaper to produce a dedicated Foil Drive board range and work closely with the Foil Drive team in Australia. The boards have had hundreds of hours testing and refinement from Dale and team riders. With the space evolving daily, Dale’s made-to-order process gets you riding the latest refinements the team riders are on and avoid out-of-date production model delays.
