Description
Versatile. Efficient. Evolved.
The new Skipper Midlength is Appletree’s answer to the growing demand for the one board quiver killer. It shines in lighter wind, prone setups, foil assist, and as a progression board for wing and parawing. Inspired by the need for a true performance MidLength, we took its predecessor and, with feedback from riders around the world, refined everything we didn’t love while preserving what we did. The result is a board that’s efficient, versatile, and forgiving: prone it, wing it, or
parawing it!
Designed for Versatility Across Disciplines
The Skipper Midlength is built to serve a wide range of riders:
- Smaller Sizes: Perfect for prone riders and experienced wing/para-wing users. Also
great for riders using foil assist systems who don’t want to fully commit to the Zapple. - Mid-Range Sizes: Optimized for all-around performance for both wing and parawing,
balanced, responsive, with superb low end for the volume. - Larger Sizes: Ideal for light wind sessions, providing excellent efficiency and lift in
low-power conditions.

Apple Skipper Midlength vs. Apple Slice V3
While the Apple Slice V3 shares the narrow feel, it’s a very different ride. It features a planing hull, making it more stable and beginner-friendly. If you’re new to winging or ride in heavier conditions, the Slice V3 might be your better match. The Apple Skipper Midlength shines in lighter wind, prone setups, foil assist, and as a progression board for parawing.
