Ride Engine Futura Surf

Ride Engine’s Futura Surf Foil package is designed for both surf foiling and wingsurfing. The key thing to note here is the Manta 76 front wing which has a 1500cm2 area. This is on the smaller side (but by no means the smallest) so is ideal for lighter riders or windier days and going faster. As a surf foil, it...

Tech Focus - Ride Engine Air Box Mini

Issue 26

For years, pumping up a wing, kite or SUP has been one of those unavoidable rituals that quietly steals time and energy. Manual pumps have improved incrementally, but the basic experience has remained the same: bending over, pushing hard against resistance, checking pressure by eye with a far-from-accurate analogue gauge, and the only real positive is the warm-up. The Air Box Mini from Ride Engine is set to change all that!

To Harness Or Not To Harness?
