Wingboard JP-Australia 2026 XR IPR

The perfect board for a new freeride experience — stability is key

XR is an excellent choice for both beginners and advanced wing foilers looking for increased stability and ease of use. Stability is key: the board has been designed for riders who expect exceptional stability and a smooth, forgiving ride, making it ideal for effortless takeoffs and smooth landings, while providing confident handling in a variety of conditions.

The shapes are slightly longer than most boards on the market, so XR offers an increased surface area that makes it easier to maintain balance throughout the entire process — from stepping onto the board, through kneeling, standing up, and all the way to taking off into flight. The board’s new dimensions combined with a consistent volume distribution provide unmatched stability, ensuring a safer experience on the water and in the air.

The shape and buoyancy enable faster and more efficient takeoffs, allowing you to catch the wind and start foiling with minimal effort. Once off the water, XR maintains exceptional stability, giving confidence and control throughout the ride thanks to perfectly positioned foil boxes and footstrap inserts. Despite its length, the centered stance position makes the board still feel direct and compact, offering great maneuverability and a solid connection to the foil. The slightly recessed standing area further improves the direct feel over the foil.

Werner Gnigler on the XR Pro: “The extended outline allows for a thinner profile, which generates less drag in the air, and combined with the light recessed deck it gives a very comfortable stance and a good sense of connection to the foil.”

Well-known and proven shape features have also been used here:

 - A subtle nose rocker featuring a double concave V for better glide, faster acceleration, and a smooth, passive takeoff.

 - A defined tuck rail line that offers maximum planing surface and helps convert lift into a clean release from the water.

 - A pronounced tail rocker improving flight position and providing greater nose clearance.

 - Unique tail cutouts reducing the wetted surface in the tail area, allowing for more efficient takeoffs and quick recovery after touchdowns.

The updated track system makes foil mounting faster and easier than ever. Large openings let you slide the plate nuts directly into the tracks, move them into position, and tighten them. Removing the foil is just as simple — loosen, slide, and lift off. All boards come with four standard plate nuts for a perfect fit, load distribution, and secure thread engagement. The mirrored position scale on the EVA deck pad lets you know exactly where the foil is relative to your back foot position, while the fine corduroy texture of the pad provides grip and comfort.

Technical details:

 - Slightly elongated shape offers an increased surface area.

 - New dimensions with consistent volume distribution provide unmatched stability.

 - Perfectly positioned foil boxes and footstrap inserts.

 - Extended outline allows for a thinner profile, reducing drag in the air.

 - Slightly recessed deck for a comfortable stance and a strong connection to the foil.

 - New tracks make it easier to mount the foil to the board.

 - 4 plate nuts included.

 - The scale between the tracks is mirrored in the EVA foam design for easy foil positioning.

 - PRO models feature a full high-density PVC sandwich on the deck and bottom, offering an unmatched stiffness-to-weight ratio combined with Innegra rail reinforcement.

 - The tracks are set in high-density blocks running from deck to bottom, creating an exceptionally stable construction.

XR is the ideal board for both beginners and advanced wing foilers, putting stability and ease of use first. Its slightly elongated shape and even volume distribution make it easier to keep your balance at every stage — from stepping onto the board to takeoff. The board’s design ensures fast, efficient takeoffs and excellent stability on the water and in the air. Thanks to the extended outline, the board has a thinner profile, which reduces drag, while the slightly recessed deck provides a comfortable stance and a strong connection to the foil. In addition, proven shape features continue, such as the subtle nose rocker with double concave V, the defined tuck rail line, the higher tail rocker, and the unique tail cutouts. Experience the perfect combination of stability and performance with XR — your way to mastering wing foiling with ease and confidence.
