The Downwinder Slim SLS is designed for speed and precision in Downwind SUP Foiling.
With key refinements to its shape, this board improves paddle speed thanks to a slimmer outline, making take-offs easier and more efficient. Its streamlined design also enhances clearance in turns and while pumping, ensuring smooth control across all conditions.
A narrower outline - reduced by 0.5 inch per size - enhances paddle speed, minimizes resistance and boosts glide. Tail rocker improves release and clearance, contributing to seamless transitions and greater overall efficiency.
The clean monoconcave bottom ensures seamless speed and smooth touchdown recovery, maintaining forward momentum at all times. Long Carbon tracks offer extensive trimming options and full foil compatibility, making the setup highly versatile and easily adaptable to your needs.
Built using lightweight Carbon Custom Sandwich construction, the Downwinder Slim SLS combines durability with minimal weight to enhance agility and responsiveness.
Available in size 7‘6‘‘ x 17.5‘‘ (90l), 8‘0‘‘ x 18‘‘ (105l) and 8‘6“ x 18.5“ (120l), the Downwinder Slim SLS is ideal for dedicated downwind riders and those exploring light wind Wing Foiling.

Great stability for a narrow board
I tried an 8'0" 120L, 20" wide board from anther brand but then bought this 8'6" 120L to begin my downwind foil journey. At first I was concerned the relatively narrow 18.5" width was going to be a problem but I found more stability than expected, possibly due to the flatter bottom shape. The second thing I noticed was how straight the board tracks while paddling. Hardly any effort is required to paddle straight compared to the other board as long as you catch forward and stop your stroke before your back foot. This board generates initial speed through the water very well. My first paddle-ups are not far away.
