AK Compact V2 WingFoil Board 2022/23
From £950.00
Last Few Left !
The AK Compact V2 is crafted with Carbon Innegra for improving impact durability of carbon board frames and components when blended with conventional carbon fibre.
The board has been fully optimised for WingFoil boarding with its highly concentrated volume, and low swing weight. Perfect for intermediate to advanced wing riders in lighter conditions, the stable platform and centralised volume create a board that is easy to throw around when jumping and doing progressive manoeuvres. The high apex rail maintains the feel of a narrow board, with stability provided by the additional width when not planing.
Now in 6 sizes from 4´2″ @36 litres through to 5´2″ @ 105 litres with the addition of the 4′ 2″ and 4′ 4″ versions.

CARBON INNEGRA CONSTRUCTION
Super strong full Carbon Innegra top deck. Wood sandwich standing area. Heavy-duty foil connection base.
Covering an ultra-lightweight fused EPS core, the Reflex Carbon Innegra shell provides exceptional flex and response. Innegra is an inherently lightweight and impact-resistant material which dissipates and absorbs a tremendous amount of energy, greatly reducing vibration. The heavy-duty foil connection features a high-density load plate, which carries the load of the foil and connects it to the top deck for a direct connection between the foil and the rider.

Key Features
KICK TAIL
The bottom kick tail allows the rider to tilt the board upwards, assisting to force the nose to lift and release from the water. It also reduces the tail touching the water when pumping and turning.
BOTTOM SHAPE
The rounded nose and softer rails help prevent the nose from sticking on touch downs, instead recovering without losing too much speed. The mid-section runs into a single concave for maximum planing speed and works in conjunction with the hard rails in the tail area for a quick water release during partial touchdowns.
CONCAVE DECK
The concave deck lowers the riders centre of gravity on the board and places the buoyancy higher on the rails, creating a more stable sub-planing platform. It also makes you feel more connected to the foil, improving the stability and response when pumping and turning.
HIGH APEX RAIL
The high apex combines the stability of a wider board with the ability to turn more aggressively as you would on a board 4 inches narrower. These work in conjunction with the hard release edge in the tail and a softer release in the nose for intuitive touchdowns and fast releases. This unique combination makes the AK Compact easier to use in lighter wind without sacrificing performance as you get up on the foil.
THICK PROFILE
Packing a surprising amount of float into such a short length reduces the swing weight, keeping the board easy to pump and turn. The volume is optimized for stability and works with the high apex rail to keep the board as nimble as possible.
WIDE NOSE
For pure wing performance, AK kept the Compact as short as possible with the wide nose keeping volume up front and the rails parallel. This creates directional stability at both low and high speeds and spreads the volume more evenly between the nose and tail.
