Balance Front Wing - Hybrid Carbon 1600cm²
Rhythmic flow of a sequence of movements A common theme in analyzing foils is getting great drive and lift but having a hard time controlling it. The board will skyrocket to the top, plunge to the bottom, or somewhere in between. This series of wings will ask you what floor on the elevator do you want to reach – and most importantly – keep you there. A nimble turn that will easily roll over to edge with its elliptical outline and additional width. It will quickly set you in the sweet spot, keep you on your specified flight pattern and do it with a quicker reacting edge hold.

Front Wing 101
This is where it all starts. The personality of your levitating experience. A proper flight begins and ends with a front wing set to your cadence and velocity. Before we tell you about our collection of products, let’s understand the science behind Aspect Ratios (a division of the chord width by the wingspan). Here’s a look at how our feathered friends have evolved their wings and how we mimic their world of aquatic flight.
LONGER WINGSPAN | HIGHER ASPECT RATIO | |
A longer wingspan with a narrower depth outline allows flight over long distances without as much flapping. – Basis of Speed. | As speed increases, wingspans expand, get narrower, flatter, and more streamlined at the end. | |
|
| |
MEDIUM WINGSPAN | MID ASPECT RATIO | |
A medium wingspan with a deeper depth outline allows it to soar with reliability, while the elliptical outline creates a quicker reacting turn. – Basis of Balance | As stability increases wingspans shorten, get wider, more elliptical, and curl up at the end. | |
With years in the making, we proudly present the mid aspect BALANCE series and our higher aspect SPEED series line of wings. We wanted to have 2 models depicting these opposing styles. Names that live up to their action – with either a more consistent or a faster flight pattern.
Tech
Where high end dreams become reality. The most complex spread toe carbon laminates layered with a pre cured resin each with a very specific degree of angle to achieve the best in strength, reactiveness, weight reduction, and vertical and torsional stiffness. The Shadow – mimicking your every movement with premier materials and processes.
- Riding with a powerful hydrodynamic authority displacing water with greater efficiency
- All aspects of your flight just became, lighter, more reactive, and faster
Wings made by air. You can’t have the cleanest ride without having the cleanest technology. We make our wings using ice and air. Ronix proudly presents a manufacturing process usually reserved for F1 wings. A lighter, more responsive environmentally friendly way of molding parts without any unused resin. The carbon laminates go in “dry” and just the right amount of frozen epoxy is then infused into the fibers. Then, each product is put into an air chamber where the PSI is turned up to a level that no deep-sea diver has witnessed. Through the 2-hour formation every finite portion of the product molds equally because of the evenly dispersed pressurized oxygen. There is no crease or flash line – just a perfectly altered part without any stress points. The result is the thinnest, purest profile available. When you take that first cutback you will instantly feel the difference.
- The most precision molded manufacturing
- Cleanest water exit in foiling
- Lighter construction using prepreg resins
Construction
A hydrodynamically complex construction with the most simplistic easy to use design.
Balance Wing Design – A rhythmic flow of a sequence of movements. A common theme in analyzing foils is getting great drive, and lift but having a hard time controlling it. The board will skyrocket to the top, plunge to the bottom or somewhere in between. This series of wings will ask you what floor on the elevator do you want to attend – and most importantly – keep you there. A nimble turn that will easily roll over to edge with its elliptical outline and additional width. Will quickly set you in the sweet spot, and keep you on your specified flight pattern, and do it with a quicker reacting edge hold.
Hybrid Carbon Construction – An infused autoclave development evolved we learned that this style of manufacturing wings compliments aluminum masts and fuselages. This layup makes a more buoyant part offsetting the increased weight of an aluminum mast. A composition that compliments the mast by creating more natural rise/lift. This creates more pressure on the board so as you begin to pump you feel a more direct transfer.
Fit - We designed a 6-sided keyhole – shape that easily attaches to our fuselage with a finite tolerance that only mounts 1 way – preventing the always embarrassing mounting your wing upside down.
Attachment – We have 3 reinforced countersunk holes for an easy attachment with the screws fitting flush when attached. Reinforced to prevent wear and tear over extended use.
Anti Twist Design – With this asymmetrical hexagon outline there is no side-to-side slip with the front wing.
