North / Foil Components Sonar Front Wing

Built for the water ahead

Sonar SF1080 Front Wing 2023

We’ve engineered our Surf Front Wing Series for super low stall speeds, effortless pumping, and surf-style carving. These wings deliver industry-leading roll control, stability, and agility, prioritising powerful rail-to-rail carves and tight banking turns. With a forgiving recovery, they accelerate quickly back up to speed in one or two pumps and transfer energy from even the smallest waves. Perfect for assisted foiling, parawing, prone, wake-thieving and wing surfing, the Surf Series generate maximum lift in the lower speed range, for smooth, sustained glide. Available in six sizes from SF530-SF1230. Pair with the Surf /5 Series Stabilizers, also designed to operate at slower speeds.

Includes: Front Wing, Cover, Titanium Screw Pack D (M8x25mm)

Technology

What makes it work.

Progress faster

The SF-Wings are easy to pump but still manageable to roll from rail to rail. The area-distribution across the span is tuned to the rolling ability of the wing - less area in the tips helps the water to get away.

Effortless pumping

The foil is super forgiving on angle of attack change – you can pump aggressively or just do a flicker and you can glide forever. When you’re about to stall, give it one pump, then go on forever again. Because it’s so forgiving, you can take out a much smaller surf wing size than you’d expect (for wing surfing). This is appealing if you’re trying to perfect your turns and wave riding. You’re carrying around a smaller foil which is more responsive.

Composed glide

The SF can be compared to a high-aspect wing – only at lower speed. Our Sonar HA wings have a phenomenal glide at a higher speed, but you need to maintain it somehow. Because we love that frictionless sensation of glide so much, we’ve engineered the same glide into the slower speeds SF-Front Wings.

Responsive turning

We’ve moved the wings as far back on the fuselage as possible for a better turning response, so you may need to move the mast further forward on the track compared to other North wings. Mounting the front wing closer to the mast reduces your yaw stability, so you can initiate turns more easily.

Match with a Surf or Glide Series Stabilizer

Because the SF front wings operate at such low speed without stalling, you need a stabilizer that does the same.
