Gecko Foil
Charge up your session
Sizes: 135
Switch effortlessly between freeriding and foiling with our versatile Gecko Foil – and enjoy the widest range of riding sensations available from one board in light to medium wind conditions.
Based on our Gecko 135, in classic freeride mode with a regular 44 cm fin, you can enjoy the progressive planing, effortless gybing and engaging ride that the Gecko is renowned for.
However, when you are ready for a new challenge or if the wind decreases, don’t rig a bigger sail – simply exchange the fin for a foil and the board will fly in total control thanks to its wide outline and forgiving nose.
foiling when it's light - windsurfing when it picks up
