One of the most notable features of the ACE Lightning is its lightweight construction, which utilizes a carbon sandwich build that balances strength and responsiveness. This not only makes the board exceptionally fast but also provides a high level of durability, ensuring it can handle rough waters and challenging conditions.
The shape of the ACE Lightning is designed for ultimate hydrodynamics, with a narrower profile that reduces drag and increases stability when riding at high speeds. Its concave deck enhances rider control, allowing for a more connected feel to the board, crucial when navigating tricky downwind runs.
Additionally, the board comes with a slightly recessed standing area, ensuring that the rider remains balanced and stable even in rough waters. This lower stance improves balance and control, which is particularly important during take-offs and while pumping. The tail kick at the back of the board aids in quick release from the water, making it easier to lift off and maintain flight when foiling.
With an optimized volume distribution, the ACE Lightning strikes a perfect balance between being easy to paddle when getting up to speed and incredibly nimble when foiling. The volume placement also ensures better flotation during take-offs and smooth touchdowns.
The Starboard ACE Lightning Foil Board is perfect for competitive foilers or anyone looking to push their foiling skills to the next level, offering unmatched speed, stability, and agility for downwind or open ocean foiling sessions. Whether you’re chasing bumps, riding waves, or exploring the limits of your performance, this board is built to deliver.
