We’re here to provide you with comprehensive answers and advice to help you make the right choice.
How to use the product
How to fit your foil?
Assemble your foil in no time with just a few screws. Two for the stabiliser and two for the mast/fuselage connection.
Does the foil need to be dismantled?
You can leave your foil fully assembled. The only thing to check, especially when the foil is new, is the tightness of the wings and especially the Tbar in the case of a demountable foil. The parts are going to be made during the first sessions and may move a little.
Should I rinse the foil?
At AFS we have always used full carbon. Full carbon means no corrosion or oxidation, so you don’t really need to rinse your foil. It’s just a quick rinse with clean water to remove any impurities that may be created by hydrocarbons or algae, depending on your spot.
Can I store a wet foil in its covers?
It is not recommended to store wet foils in their covers. Storing a wet foil in a closed, unventilated cover can lead to discolouration or colour transfer, even if there is no mechanical risk of oxidation.
Should I use tef gel?
That’s the advantage of carbon, you don’t need to add anything – just ride!
