Description
Description
The Starboard Front Wing Glider 3 UCS 2026 is the all-round high-lift front wing for anyone who wants to get on the water without thinking too long. With its high aspect ratio, new camber profile and thin leading edge, it delivers early lift, stable gliding and precise handling – whether wing foiling, downwinding, pump foiling, wave riding or wake foiling. Thanks to the Universal Connection Standard (UCS), it fits all Starboard foil components and can be upgraded at any time.
Why this product is right for you
- The new camber profile with trailing edge curvature provides plenty of low-end power and high stall resistance – you fly earlier and stay in the air longer.
- A thinner leading edge and revised outlines improve handling precision, acceleration and stability during maneuvers.
- Optimized aspect ratio for each size – every front wing has been tuned in terms of span-to-surface ratio for glideability, efficiency and acceleration.
- Tip twist at the wingtips reduces drag and lets the tips break softly and controllably through the water surface.
- UCS compatible – you can combine the front wing with any Starboard mast, fuselage and tail wing and expand your setup as needed.
- Versatile use: wing foiling, downwind, pump foiling, wave foiling and wake foiling – you choose the size based on the conditions and wind.
- Perfect complement to the recommended Pro 180, SLX 160, SLX 180, H.A.R. MF 200 and MF 160 Short tail wings.
Suitable for
- Wing foilers looking for a versatile front wing for different conditions
- Advanced and professional riders who value glideability, efficiency and control
- Downwind and pump foilers who need early lift and long glide
- Wave and wake foilers who appreciate a stable and responsive foil feel
- Pump foilers who want to combine a high aspect ratio with good low-end performance
- Foil riders who want to flexibly build and expand their Starboard UCS setup
Details and specifications
The Glider 3 builds on the proven Glider concept and has been revised in the smaller sizes with a thinner profile, updated outlines and trailing edge curvature. The two largest sizes adopt the shape of the Glider 2.
