Description
AN ACE IN FOILING DOWNWIND, WING AND SURF
The Ace Foil features the iconic pin-tail design for efficient takeoff and tracking downwind. The outline is designed to resemble nature’s most streamline possible shape, a teardrop, and the slightly recessed standing area gives the rider a flat, stable, and more connected feel over the foil.
After much testing, we also found the Ace Foil to be a fantastic crossover board for not only SUP downwinding, but light wind wingboarding as well as SUP surfing.

Features:
- NEW ACE OUTLINE - The teardrop outline is the most efficient outline, offering even volume and a stable shape.
- NEW NARROW WIDTH - Designed for speed downwind and early takeoff. The aim of the Ace Foil is to offer a super-fast accelerating board to quickly catch bumps and accelerate quickly onto foil. The Ace Foil model is available in narrow sizes from 19″ up to 23″.
- NEW PIN TAIL - Tracking and efficiency are two key aspects of the pintail design. The pin tail offers great tracking for catching bumps, while the pin tail also brings the water back together, allowing a more efficient takeoff and touchdown with less board touching the water.
- NEW ROUND RAILS - The rounded rails were originally designed to be easy to use in choppy ocean conditions. This same concept has been brought to the Ace Foil model, which not only creates ease in the chop but also allows the board to have an amazing spring when pumping to get on the foil.
- NEW ROCKER - The rocker is fine-tuned for speed, spring, and larger bumps. The rockerline has been tested in a range of conditions, from flatwater to large ocean swell.
- NEW 16” FOIL BOX - With many iterations of downwind foils hitting the market, the 16″ foil box caters to any foil preference. This downwind model features a “further forward” box for fine-tuned and comfortable downwind foiling.
- NEW BOARD SOCK - Reduces paper waste while protecting your board from dust, scratches, and UV damage. Made with stretchable polyester, it fits various board shapes. Ensure optimal board maintenance with the iconic blue Board Sock, featuring a secure drawstring closure.

So good!
Got the 85l in lite version with the intent to wingfoil exclusively. Now, 5 (cold, as in just about freezing) sessions in, I am astonished that this board has not had tons of rave reviews. All geared up, I come in at about 85k, yet, this board is so stable, super easy to launch and get on foil. I had it out in winds ranging from sub 10 kts to raging 40+ kts, it excelled in all these conditions. Once on foil, feels very small and super direct. Given the stability in the water, I will try to paddle the board, once temps go up a little. This board may make my Armie DW board redundant. Construction is typical Starboard Blue Carbon. I have an old Allstar SUP, not a ding after over 8 years of use. The Ace Foil feels like it will perform similarly well. And great, long foil tracks, finally a board where I don’t need to place my foils all the way to the back.
