RRD KSH Alu Universal Hydrofoil & F-One Rocket Air Package

Ex Display

This fantastic package includes the RRD KSH hydrofoil 1600 and F One Rocket Air Inflatable 7’2 Board.

The board hasn’t even got wet and the hydroil has been on the water once and then on display in our shop for about a 2 months.

We do often have a selection of ex demo or display wings as well. If this is something you may need, give us a shout!

This package is ideal for anyone getting into either wingfoiling, SUP foiling or both! The boards are very versatile and being light and durable, are ideal for kids to play on in the summer as well.

RRD KSH Hydrofoil

The RRD KSH Universal Hydrofoil is a good all round foil that can be used for a variety of sports. It’s aimed at wingfoiling, windsurding, SUP foiling and kite foiling.

1528cm Front Wing

372cm Rear stabiliser

75cm Mast

Comes with protective carry all bag

 

The foil has been on the water once and on display in the shop, so it’s noticeable that is not brand new but is still in all it’s original packing and as you’d expect, in perfect condition.

 

We used the same model to learn to wingfoil last year and found it easy to use with plenty of speed and performance as you improve.

It comes with a standard top adaptor (160mm x 90mm) so it will fit the majority of boards and track systems.

The foil has plenty of lift and float so you can get up and riding on the wing in no more than about 2 – 3 knots of forwards movement and we found we could ride it down to about 10 knots with a 5m wing.

It’s a really good universal wing that you’ll not grow out and it won’t break the bank.

 

A review from KiteMag

In the brave new world of foiling, it is very difficult to produce a foil that you can genuinely say is relatively ‘future proof’. There is such rapid development and foils head in such a huge number of different directions in terms of design that – to anyone just starting out in the world of foiling – if you lined up all of their options, it’s pretty likely their head would explode. RRD have acknowledged that and want to make your life simple: they have their Universal Foil. Which – helpfully enough – can also be used for wing foiling and surf foiling. It’s a Universal Foil, get it? Aside from its adaptability, the price point is also a big selling point. You can get up and riding on the Universal Foil for the cost of a replacement front wing of many of the top end foils.

Learn how to foil and jibe in 2 days! Spectacular lift starting at 8 knots of board speed on the water. You can go all the way up to 18 knots of top speed with pleasure, comfort and exhilarating fun. Is the most versatile hydrofoil in the range. A front wing of 1500 sqcms/82 cms wingspan allows this foil to be converted into a Kite/SUP-Surf foil with the purchase of a shorter fuselage (from 100 to 76 cms).

 

 

Build wise and the wings are built with carbon and PU, providing a good balance between strength/stiffness and durability/cost. They are, of course, finished in RRD orange ensuring that if you forget to tighten the screws and your foil falls off, you have a good chance of spotting it against the seaweed at low tide… The profile of the front wing is super thick – thicker than any kite foil we have tested – and the thickness is maintained throughout the foil. The mast is aluminum but with plastic ends to slot in at either end, thus eliminating oxidization. Once assembled, you have an impressively rigid set up. Certainly not the lightest foil on the market, but it is not trying to be.

On the water and it is best to assess the Universal Foil from two different perspectives. Firstly, if you are a beginner and are about to embark on the addictive pathway that is ‘foiling’… With this in mind, we would say that the Universal Foil comes in as simply one of the easiest foils we have ever ridden. The relatively large wing coupled with the thick profile ensure an incredibly smooth and predictable lift initially and then gives you enough time to engage that all important front foot pressure. If I look back on the hours I spent learning to foil eight years ago, I think you would have reduced the frustration by about 95% riding this. It is as easy as foiling gets and for an intermediate kiter, you would expect them to be getting their first few decent runs in within a couple of sessions. This lift and stability are also what ensure that the foil also works with surfing and winging, but don’t count this as a negative for kiting…

For more experienced riders, the Universal Foil may initially feel like a step back, but in this new world of foiling with blurred lines between the different disciplines, we didn’t find that. The lift and stability mean that you don’t just need to stand there, you can get the foil up and ride it with a kite a couple sizes smaller than with other foils, and can then really enjoy carving the foil around (especially if you have some swell to play with) and can also pump through lulls or flat sections in the surf. If you are working on foiling transitions, then you buy yourself (at least) an extra second of float to get your feet switched and turn the power back on and gives you the confidence to really push the limits of what you can do with your foil riding.

In a sentence: The Universal Foil provides the perfect platform for starting off on a foil but also provides a well-tuned and super fun platform to take your foiling skills to the next level.

 

F One Rocket Air 7’2

Inflatable Surf Foil Board

The F-One Rocket Air Foil Board was a big hit when it was launched as it is light, easy to use, really durable, affordable and it doesn’t hurt if it hits you while learning!  The down side was the Tuttle connector was fiddly and sometimes took a while to set up. But the new model no longer has it!

The 2021 has a normal 4 bolt top adaptor so it will fit the majority of foils.

We can’t see any downside to these boards now. Use it for the first year or two of wingfoiling and then progress onto a hardboard when you’re ready.

The 6’6 has become the favourite for wing and all round use and the larger sizes make a nice crossover between SUP, Windsurf and Wing.

Technology

DROP STITCH

An incredible technology developed originally to make inflatable rescue airplanes! It was later on used by inflatable boat and canoe manufacturers. It is composed of a vertical stitch in-between the deck and the hull that keeps them parallel and extremely rigid. This allows the boards to be inflated up to 21 PSI.

NOTE: Some boards may show a larger or smaller bulge on the hull in the area of the inflation valve, or at the mast foot for the windsurf boards. This bulge is inherent to the ‘drop stitch’ technology used in the manufacturing process of your board, and doesn’t constitute a defect. Also, it does not affect in any way the behavior and/or reliability of your board.
