Nouveau boîtier US en carbone moulé

Les Glide V3 sont équipées de notre nouveau boîtier US en carbone moulé, développé en interne par Takoon. Grâce à leur rigidité incomparable, ces nouveaux boitiers apportent une connexion au foil inégalée, une parfaite transmission des efforts et un feeling sans pareil.

Nos nouveaux box de foil sont fabriquées en carbone préimprégné, polymérisé à haute pression et haute température dans un moule en acier. Ce processus permet d’obtenir un boîtier avec des fibres longues de carbone bien compactés, ce qui le rend tout simplement indestructible et ultra rigide.

Grâce à cette construction, si l’on compare nos boitiers carbone aux boitiers classiques comme les Futures, le gain de rigidité et de robustesse est considérable. En effet, généralement fabriqués en plastique injecté chargé avec de la fibre de verre en fibres courtes, les boitiers classiques peuvent présenter de la déformation à l’effort. Sur l’eau, cela se ressent sous forme d’un temps de latence dans la réactivité du foil, que ce soit pour le pumping, pour carver, ou pour les manœuvres. Avec nos nouveaux boîtiers carbone, la transmission des efforts est instantanée et la connexion est ultra rigide.

Plus longs, ces nouveaux boitiers donnent beaucoup plus de liberté de placement de votre foil. Ils viennent en 2 tailles: 33 cm et 38 cm en fonction de la taille de la planche. Ils sont ainsi plus longs de 6 cm et 11 cm que les boîtiers futurs. Ainsi, vous pourrez affiner vos réglages, afin de trouver la position personnelle qui vous convient le plus.

Ils bénéficient aussi d’une double ouverture par rails pour un montage plus rapide : plus besoin de démonter entièrement vos boulons de la platine, il suffit simplement de desserrer les vis, de faire glisser le foil dans les ouvertures et de resserrer les vis et hop, le tour est joué.

Presentation

Designed to push the limits of downwind SUP, the Escape also excels in wingfoil thanks to its smooth glide and ultra-easy takeoff. Its elongated shape maximizes lift and reduces drag, allowing you to take off earlier and fly farther.

Aerodynamic and stable in flight, it remains accessible both paddling and winging, even for heavier riders or in light winds. Available in three sizes (110L to 135L), it is suited for riders from beginner to expert seeking performance or new sensations in downwind foiling.

Escape vs. Escape Pro

The Escape and Escape Pro share a similar design, but each model is optimized for specific conditions.

Escape: Slightly wider and shorter, offering better acceleration and increased stability. This design makes it ideal for wind swell, short period waves, or choppy seas where quick acceleration and stability are essential. However, its top speed is somewhat limited, as its shape prioritizes comfort and responsiveness in more chaotic waves.

Escape Pro: Slightly longer and narrower, making it more agile and capable of reaching higher top speeds. Its design is especially suited for ground swell and long-period waves, where the board can unleash its full speed potential while remaining stable at high velocity. It offers a bit less stability than the Escape but compensates by maintaining consistent speed in longer, smoother waves.

In summary: The Escape excels in short, choppy waves where responsiveness and stability matter most, while the Escape Pro shines in longer, smoother waves, delivering optimal performance at high speeds.

Features

Molded Carbon US Boxes

The Escape features our molded carbon US boxes. Ultra-rigid and indestructible, they offer an unparalleled connection to the foil, perfect force transmission, and a unique feeling.
Made from pre-impregnated carbon and molded under high pressure and high temperature, these boxes outperform classic injected plastic models.
Result: no deformation, immediate responsiveness, and optimal performance for pumping, carving, and maneuvers.

Extended Carbon Boxes with Double Opening

The new carbon boxes of the Escape Pro, now longer (38 cm, 11 cm longer than the Futures boxes), offer unmatched placement freedom. You can adjust your settings precisely without reaching the front or rear stops for a position perfectly suited to your style.
Thanks to their double rail opening, the setup is quick: simply loosen the screws, slide the foil, and tighten it again. Less time setting up, more time on the water!
These rigid boxes maximize your sensations and control. They make the whole setup feel livelier, giving the impression of using a smaller front wing. Become one with your foil and experience amplified performance!

Shape

The Escape is inspired by SUP race board shapes to offer smooth and fast glide, ideal for effortless take-off. Long, thin, with a stretched outline, it is designed to maximize glide efficiency and allow for quick take-off.
The volume is carefully distributed around the center of gravity, improving stability when stationary. This balanced distribution also allowed us to refine the stance area for better control and more stability while riding.
The V-shaped hull plays a key role in the board’s performance: it promotes smooth glide, progressive and fast take-off, while efficiently evacuating water. It also provides a slight natural rebound effect that absorbs impacts, even at high speeds, offering more comfort and tolerance during landings.
Thanks to this hull combined with its elongated shape, the Escape guarantees an optimal take-off, no matter the water conditions.

Tail

The Escape features a V-tail with a pronounced rocker, designed to maximize freedom of movement in flight.
This shape allows for easy release of the board during pumping, reducing friction points with the water.
The V accentuates water flow during touches or take-off phases, providing smoother and more direct glide.

Rocker Line

The Escape has a pronounced rocker, but without excess, ensuring smooth and fluid glide.
This rocker offers excellent ability to catch the swell, facilitating transitions and direction changes while maintaining constant speed.
It allows for easy release of the board during maneuvers without sacrificing stability.

EVA Pad

3.5mm: this is the thickness of the pads on the Escape. They will always offer you more grip and comfort while riding and during transitions, while ensuring better water drainage. The pad also protects the board from potential impacts and gives the Escape a stylish look.
