The Take Off has proven to be a hit among Starboard's riders in wing freestyle contests, with Dream Team participants employing the most recent, miniaturized Take Off models in many competitions.
The 2024 Take Off has been comprehensively reimagined to be a freestyle wing foil board for superior performance. An expanded size range of slightly longer but narrower designs encourages brisker take-offs and improved handling at speed. The streamlined profile sports a thin nose for speed and parity in the air and in the water, while the cutaway tail carves a narrow pin at the tip for diminished drag. Moreover, the bottom shape flaunts sharp rails with a flat midsection for tangible control and composure during lake landings, regardless of approach.
The Take Off range is tailored for intermediate to advanced riders, providing sizes ranging from 5'3" x 25.5" and up for wing and SUP foiling, and sizes from 5'0" x 24.5" to 4'0" x 18.5" for high-performance wing and foil surfing. Meanwhile, the 7'0" x 31" and 6'3" x 28" models offer the perfect fit for heavier riders wishing to reach extraordinary new heights in winging or SUP Foiling.
