AK Nomad foilboard
Dette brettet har tatt det beste fra DW sup foil brett og optimalisert det for lettvinds wingfoiling som antagelig blir hovedbruken for de fleste som kjøper denne type brett i Norge. Brettet fungerer også bra til sup foiling og sup DW foiling, men hovedvekt er lagt på lettvinds wingfoiling med litt kortere lengde og litt økt bredde.
NOMAD FOILBOARD
Intuitive stability, control & maneuverability.
Lightweight & durable Carbon construction.
The all-new Nomad foilboard is an intuitive and stable lightwind and downwind crossover board with effortless gliding capabilities. Perfect for catching long drawn out waves, downwinding, or getting up on the foil in the lightest wind with your wing.
With its optimized length and width, the Nomad features a parallel outline, volume distributed for flight, and a forward foil position that will allow you to keep the same stance as you paddle for take-off, and get up on the foil.
90L 6’6” x 20.5” x 5.2”
115L 7’0” x 23” x 5.4”
135L 7’6” x 24.5” x 5.6”
FORWARD FOIL POSITION
The forward foil position creates a perfect balance when on foil, ensuring that the relatively long length is balanced front to back. This allows easy pumping, stability under foot, and maximum maneuverability.
CONCAVE DECK
The high volume oriented towards the nose area prevents the nose from bogging down as you drive through your front foot. The concave deck creates a stable platform by lowering the riders center of gravity.
PIN TAIL
The pin tail creates an extremely clean release and works in conjunction with the narrow overall width and narrow nose for infinite glide.
NARROW NOSE
The narrow nose slices through the water and works in conjunction with the narrow overall width and pin tail for infinite glide.
BOTTOM SHAPE
The bottom shape features a displacement optimized nose area for low speed glide, transitioning into a planing hull tail area with hard edges for smooth touch downs and immediate release. The intermediate rocker has been refined to enable immediate glide and efficient low speed take offs.

AK Durable Supply Co.
AK is a watersports brand from Cape Town, producing technical components and accessories built for comfort, durability, and performance.
We are all masters of our own desire, in search of the perfect day, place, and moment to unleash our energy. This is why we spend our time chasing wind and waves, pushing the limits of ourselves, and our gear. Our aim is to create products that become an extension of ourselves, progressively integrating our bodies into the elements, until we work as one.
AK, part of the Starboard Group, was initiated by the creative and technical minds behind the Solar Station Design company in Cape Town; a small collective of creators and innovators that have been crafting products for the surf, wake, and wind sports industry for 25 years. We work to forge a new path in high performance, durable, and essential design that resonates with a crew of like-minded riders.
The first products were developed in 2018 by Clinton Filen, Graham Wiles, and Dean Freedberg, along with a few additions in more recent years, like Dave Kay, and Craig Tompkins.
In 2019, South African surfer Dale Staples, Hawaiian waterman Zane Schweitzer, Canadian Kiteboarding Champion Jack Reider, and Spanish champ Kiko Roig Torres, formed the nucleus of the early team riders. Since then, we’ve formed a tight-knit collective of free surfers, kiters, and foil riders who have all helped drive the brand forward…
