KT Wing Ginxu Dragonfly - Downwind Foil Board

KT Wing Ginxu Dragonfly Downwind Foil Board

The KT Ginxu Dragonfly is a Stand-Up Paddle (SUP) Downwind Foil board designed by Keith Teboul and his design team. It is the result of years of development and incorporates design concepts from various watercraft, including America's Cup yachts, downwind canoes, and SUP race boards. The board focuses on delivering peak performance, stability in the water, early takeoff, and ultimate control in the air.

One of the key features of the KT Ginxu Dragonfly is its low nose entry with beveled rails and a recessed deck in the paddling stance position. These design elements provide added stability, allowing riders to get going even in challenging sea conditions or choppy waters. The slight displacement hull in the nose and mid-section transitions into a patented Ginxu step bottom in front of the foil boxes. This design facilitates forward acceleration with each pump, making it easier to get onto the foil with minimal effort.

The KT Ginxu Dragonfly is a Downwind Foil board designed specifically for open water foiling. It is a popular choice among foilers who enjoy downwind gliding. Whether you prefer prone or stand-up paddle boarding (SUP) for downwind riding on rolling swells, using a light wind wing or paddle in small waves, or even popping up on flat water, the Ginxu Dragonfly provides an excellent foiling experience.

The board's tail kick enhances paddling efficiency without restricting manoeuvrability. It offers a quick, clean release off the back and stays out of the way as the step bottom enables pumping, takeoff, and flying. The Ginxu Dragonfly also features 16" tracks for optimal foil positioning, allowing riders to perform hard carves in tight sections and pump to catch the next swell more easily.

Constructed with an Ultra Carbon Monocoque Construction, the Ginxu Dragonfly is lightweight yet durable. It is available in multiple volume options, ranging from 88 to 135 litres, and various sizes, including 6'6", 6'9", 7'0", 7'4", 7'7", 8'2", and 8'4". This range ensures that riders of different sizes and skill levels can find a suitable board size to enjoy the foiling experience.

The Ginxu Dragonfly does not come with a foil included, but it is designed with Futures 16" Fin Boxes to accommodate foils.

In terms of aesthetics, the Ginxu Dragonfly is available in a Sanded Dark Silver over Carbon finish with Translucent Red Artwork and a Charcoal Pad, giving it an attractive and stylish appearance.

Overall, the Ginxu Dragonfly is a high-performance SUP Downwind Foil board designed to deliver effortless riding, maximum control, and an exceptional foiling experience in open water.
