Wind-Foil Performance Sportive & Competition
Performance Foiling Made Easy
JP’s HydroFoil boards were among the very first purpose-built foil boards and true pioneers of the foiling revolution. From day one, they set benchmarks for performance, accessibility, and all-round appeal. The third-generation HydroFoil 133 and 155 build on this legacy as user-friendly, scaled-down versions of the HydroFoil Slalom models—delivering high-end foil speed with exceptional comfort and control.
These boards represent JP’s most balanced blend of top-level foil performance and effortless handling. Efficient, fast, and remarkably stable, they are easy to manage both on the water and in the air, making advanced foiling accessible to a wide range of riders.
Shaper Werner Gnigler refined the concept by transferring the advantages of JP’s race-winning foil designs into the recreational foil category—removing unnecessary volume and width while preserving speed and excitement. The result is a board that feels incredibly comfortable and intuitive, yet delivers blistering pace. As with freerace boards in windsurfing, pure performance gains from racing shapes naturally flow into these freeride-oriented designs.
“My focus was to make fast foiling easy and accessible, but still extremely exciting,” says Werner Gnigler. “Improved stability, comfort and control are the key ingredients for fast and confident foiling on any course.”
Shape & Design Highlights
