Formula windsurf board Line

with foil

The predecessor shape “Formula 4” was crowned with the Formula Windsurfing World and European Champion title overall men, youth and masters and has also placed the most 2nd and 3rd positions in the last 2 years. Later in the season this shape also surprised the Windfoil world and won the foil discipline at the World Cup event in Sylt. Windsurf: The shape in combination with the hollow construction is simply unique and at first, we thought it couldn’t get any better but we were wrong…! The first prototypes for 2018/19 simply killed it and made the whole testing and pro-team including shaper Patrik Diethelm speechless! Patrik: “The hollow construction is amazing and regardless of size there is almost no weight increase in relation to the volume. Normally a thick board is heavy, draggy and slow but even our last prototype which was 3cm thicker felt light and alive. Like a fin, the stiffness twist and flex can be controlled as well and it opens up new doors for shape designs.” Foil: We are proud to have followed our philosophy and refused to launch additional products just for the sake of business. Many foil board prototypes from other brands have been tested throughout the 2017 racing season and during the World cup event in Sylt the best riders selected the best shapes and competed against each other. The result proved that the PATRIK Formula 4 is the best choice for riders who want to win windsurf and/or Windfoil races. To conform with the new PWA rules for foil events we built a 91cm wide Formula board which is not only a foil board but also the Windsurf LIGHTWIND weapon for those who do not want 1m wide boards.
