Sunova x Foil Drive Trench Board

In stock and shipping!

Light, durable with amazing controller connection.

THE FOIL DRIVE TRENCH is a collaborative board with the legends at Foil Drive. Based on our original Foil Drive model, but now with a trench.

Designed and tested with the team at Foil Drive, this board was specially created to function with the Gen 2 and Gen 2.5 (fusion) systems. With a larger surface area on the bottom, rolled hard edges, and minimal rocker, this board begins to plane as soon as you press go. But don’t let its friendly appearance fool you, it's an absolute weapon on foil.

Specifically designed with a softer deck pad to ensure you’re comfortable enough to stay on foil for hours.

ABOUT THE BOARD:

GENERAL GOAL | THEME OF THE BOARD:

This board is designed to pair perfectly with the Foil Drive Gen 2 and Gen 2.5 systems.

Any conditions. Whatever you usually prone, or downwind with Foil Drive assistance.

SKILL LEVEL IT'S BEST FOR:

Novice to pro. Just choose size according to level.

WHAT YOU THOUGHT OF WHEN YOU DESIGNED IT?

I wanted a trench board that would work effortlessly with the Foil Drive Gen 2 system. A board that is designed to get into the air, and on foil as easily as possible, that still has a progressive shape and can be pushed really hard. A true balance of performance and functionality.

WHAT IT POSSIBLY COMPROMISES ON THEN?

The rocker is quite flat, so it doesn’t like taking off deep in the pocket on heavy waves. This is not exactly what it has been designed for though.

SHAPE DETAILS / DESIGN INFO-

OUTLINE:

Pulled in nose, parallel mid section, to pulled in tail. The narrower nose and tail help to lay the board over on harder carves without catching a rail. The parallel mid section helps the board track and plane, enabling it to get on foil even quicker.

RAILS:

Rolled with hard bottom edges. The rolled rails enable the bottom surface area of the board to be as big as possible, enabling earlier planning and more equal volume distribution. The hard edges help water release more efficiently, reducing drag. They are still tucked enough through the mid-rear section to ensure they don’t catch on more radical maneuvers.

ROCKER:

Flatter with subtle nose kick. The flatter rocker helps the board to plane quicker with the assistance of the Foil Drive system. There is a subtle tail kick, which helps keep it out of the way when you are pumping up, or taking off.

BOTTOM:

Subtle rounded V into flat midsection. The subtle V at the front helps the board on touchdowns, it won’t immediately stick and bog. The flat planing surface through the middle allows the board to glide effortlessly with assistance from the foil drive.

DECK:

Concave Deck. We have a concave deck to get the rider as close to the foil as possible while maintaining the volume needed. It's a soft concave without any drastic edges so it doesn't trap water on the deck after takeoff. The deck line has been pulled right out to the edge of the rail edge, making the usable deck area as large as possible.

FINAL STATEMENT:

This is the ultimate board for use with Foil Drive. A fine balance of usability and performance makes this a real winner. If you’re looking for one board to do it all, look no further.

TR3 TEC TECHNOLOGY:

TR3 TEC is SUNOVA’s most popular foilboard technology. After the success of ECOTec technology and due to the rising cost of materials and our push for sustainability Sunova introduced TR3 TEC. Using similar base materials but incorporating models from their entire SUP foil range TR3 TEC enables us to offer a great product at a reasonable price point.

A lightweight EPS core is coupled with a parabolic carbon fiber rail and sustainably sourced Paulownia wood making for a very aesthetically pleasing package. The wood is sandwiched top and bottom with fiberglass and bio epoxy resin, giving it good flex characteristics but making it extremely resistant to paddle marks or depressions. Finished off with natural colors and tones these boards look very sleek with an EVA deck pad that matches the overall theme. A ledge handle makes these boards super easy to transport and carry.
