The Aleka Tuflite V-Tech is the perfect Stand Up Paddlboard for any paddler that seeks versatility. Joe BARK shaped the Aleka to be stable enough for flat-water cruising, but it will also perform well in small to medium surf. The prAna/Surftech collaboration adds an amazing aesthetic with patterns matching their 2020 Swim Line. Surftech’s Tuflite V-Tech molded construction consists of high quality bamboo veneer, EPS foam, fiberglass and Epoxy resin. Other features include 4 deck tie downs, ledge handle, rear padded handle and ¾ deck pad. The board has been verified Level One by Sustainable Surf’s ECOBOARD Project for its use of Bio Based Resin and BLOOM (20% algae biomass based) foam. This SUP is specifically designed for a paddler interested in sport and fitness. It is narrower and less stable than entry level boards making it more efficient while also allowing the user to properly engage entire core strength with every paddle stroke. Beauty, challenge and fun all in one board.

TAKE OFF
TO NEW HEIGHTS10 x CLIMATE POSITIVEThe Take Off is the Foiler’s board of choice for anything wing, foil surf, foil downwind and more. This is a true all-round foil board that caters for first-time flyers getting started in foiling all the way through to experienced foilers looking to get high and go fast.This is a completely new concept through and through with an all-new bottom shape, release edges, rocker, volume and outline. You name it, the 2022 Take Off Foil Board has it.
SMALL SIZE, HIGH VOLUME
Our super small size range with high volume means riders can ride smaller boards than ever before. This new range allows for riders to go down in size by around one foot in length. Smaller size, easier riding in a higher performance package.NEW EXTRA LONG FOOTSTRAP• A new larger foot strap that has a wider spread and it can also be made shorter, using different positions, for those who want the security necessary to launch into the air.
• Our new XL footstraps come with Blue Carbon Pro and Blue Carbon. It can also be purchased aftermarket for Lite Tech.
NEW 12” FOIL BOXThe brand new 12” foil box gives more options to more riders. Move the foil to your preferred liking. Further forward suits riders starting to foil who may need extra lift. Further back on the box is for high wind conditions, large waves and highly skilled riders. All boards are optimised so the middle box position gives the best balance point for foilers.
CARRY HANDLEThe carry handle is moved to the bottom of the board to avoid interfering when foiling, yet still easy to carry.
(4’7″ and 5’2″ come with small handles. The other sizes come with Starboard standard IQ handle)
