The World Champion front wing in Surf-Freestyle, Big Air and Freefly-Slalom.

The Ypra S front wing is our high-performance front wing, tremendously effective in all fields. The essential front wing for an experienced rider who both wants to be the fastest on the spot and to send it in surfing and freestyle.

The Ypra S is the 2022 World Champion in Surf-Freestyle and Freefly-Slalom under the feet of Malo Guénolé. In 2023 it became World Champion again in U-16 Surf-Freestyle with Clément Hamon, then in U-19 reefly-Slalom for a second time in a row with Malo Guénolé. Later in 2023 it clinched the Big Air World Champion title with Julien Rattotti. This front wing is at the top of the world hierarchy.

The glide of this wing is a game changer in the wing foiling world. You feel pulled forward at crazy speeds without any restraint. It’s breathtaking. Its thinness, its thin leading edge, and its moderate high aspect ratio give you all the ingredients to set speed records hands down.

Its tolerant profile translates to very high performance in FreeFly. The wing glides really fast. It flies with an incredible average speed that allows you to link turns on end and to follow the perfect trajectory.

Its fairly curved shape makes it easier to maneuver. A front wing that goes fast, lifts in FreeFly and turns very well is inevitably an excellent surfer. And speed is the key to the committed surfing that scores high, as Malo demonstrated with several victories in Brazil on the Ypra S.

When it comes to Freestyle, the Ypra S is a world-class reference for its performance, particularly thanks to its pop. But also with its repop that you can perfectly control with its great tolerance. The titles follow one another on this magical front wing.

Versatility in excellence is how the Ypra S is defined.
