IQ FOIL 85 BOARD
OFFICIAL YOUTH & JUNIOR WINDSURFING CLASS
Fin or foil, from 5 knots to 35 knots, from juniors to Olympic Gold. iQFOiL Youth & Junior is a One Design Class with official Youth&Junior Windsurfing Class status. It allows youth and junior sailors to compete using a very similar package and racing similar formats to the senior Olympic discipline, allowing them to develop the skills and techniques that will serve them well in their future Olympic campaigns.
THE IQFOIL CONCEPT AT A GLANCE
THE BOARD: iQFOIL 85
iQFoil 85 Youth & Junior: The Junior and Youth model with its shape based on the iQFoil 95 with reduced proportions to adapt to lighter riders. Additional footstrap positions and reduced rail cutaway sizes improve performance in fin mode.
The new 85cm wide iQFoil is the one-design board for Junior and Youth. Smaller and more controllable for younger sailors, this new size shares the same racing genes as the 95. Additional footstrap positions and reduced rail cutaway sizes improve performance in fin mode. Starting as a Junior with the Junior foil set and the 6.0 rig, upgrading to Youth only requires a larger sail and a new foil front wing. It’s the most streamlined path from foil racing at a young age to the pinnacle of sports.

FEATURES
CUT AWAYS Extra-large cutaways, more than double the size of the regular Formula’s, reduces the wetted area and improves take-off onto the foil. |
SHARP RAILS & BEVELED NOSE The sharp rails in the tail allows the boards to get planing and reach take off speed more easily. Additionally, the board will bounce off the water if you clip the water surface instead of sticking and throwing you into a catapult. |
RECESSED MAST TRACK Deck concave and recessed mast track for a more vertical sailing position while closing the gap between the sail and the deck of the board. |
