The perfect balance between performance, lift and ride
The 2022 AXIS Froth foilboard is the perfect balance between performance, early lift and ease of ride, a stable platform that packs plenty of volume into a short length to reduce swing weight and increase your fun while SUP or wing foiling.
With the newest Froth AXIS have made some important design changes, reflecting the movement towards higher aspect, lower drag foil designs that require more speed to lift-off. They’ve eliminated the angled chisel on the tail, which increases the length of the planing surface to add sub-foiling speed potential.
They’ve also reduced the rail bevel, in fact it now fades out completely before the tail adding more width to the planing surface and straightening the water flow for even faster acceleration up to foiling speed.
Also noticeable is the pulled in nose with rounded outline, to reduce the chances of catching in rougher water, compared to the more square nose from 2021. AXIS increased the thickness and volume up here too, to maintain a balance in buoyancy that will give you stability when on your knees or stepping up to get going.
A new deck concave gives your feet and toes improved leverage when initiating turns, while feeling safe and secure in a straight line when riding without straps.
The unique tail pad design ensures any water captured in the concave, flows freely out the back.
Carbon enhanced construction
This Froth model is even tougher, while significantly increasing the stiffness to help transfer every ounce of your pumping energy into the mast and foil. Full carbon layers top and bottom add further strength and rigidity to a tough PVC foam sandwich. A super high-density foam block encases the mast track from the bottom to the deck, further supported with additional carbon layers.
Sizes
The Froth 160 and 145 are the largest and highest volume foil boards suited to heavier learners getting into SUP and wing foiling, offering the most stable platform for progression. Match these with the BSC 1120 and Freeride 500/90 or 440/90 for the ultimate easy up and go solution. Strap inserts have been removed on these sizes to save weight.
The Froth 135 and 120 are high volume foil boards suited to large riders and average sized novices getting into SUP and wing foiling, offering a very stable platform for progression. Match these with the BSC 1060 and Freeride 440/90 for the ultimate easy up and go solution.
The Froth 110 and 105 are moderate volume foil boards suited to large/medium weight riders (in gusty areas or as a light wind quiver addition) and light novices getting into wing foiling, offering a stable platform for progression and rapid advancement. Match these with any of the front wing/rear wing combinations.
The Froth 95, 90 and 85 are medium volume foil boards suited to medium weight intermediate and advanced riders, offering a versatile platform for progression and rapid advancement. Match these with any of the performance front wing/rear wing combinations.
The Froth 75, 65, 55 and 45 are mid/lower volume foil boards suited to medium weight advanced to expert riders for wing foiling, prone foiling and tow foiling, offering a versatile platform for progression and rapid advancement. Match these with any of the performance front wing/rear wing combinations for the ultimate skill accelerator. These make excellent flat water pump boards.

How to size your AXIS Froth foilboard
Unique to AXIS is the large range of sizes that will ensure you can achieve the volume that’s right for you. For wingers starting out, we recommend 20-40 litres more than your body weight in kilograms. Intermediate riders should drop down to roughly the same litres as their body weight (or 10-15 litres above), while advanced riders can go as small as you dare, the only limit is your athleticism and the steadiness of the wind conditions. If it’s gusty, stay closer to your body weight in litres. SUP foilers will naturally gravitate to the largest sizes in the range.
