New Shape! New Construction - almost 1 kilo lighter with the full carbon construction.

SPITFIRE 3.0 -The Spitfire evolves into a new shape refined to be the board of choice for those looking for
unbridled performance once the waves get hollower and or larger with the ability to handle and create speed in
waves. A continuous smooth rocker which creates yet controls speed, working in harmony with low apex
moderate volume rails that provide control yet maintain drive all the way through an arc.

High performance through a broad range of conditions. Generation of speed when marginal where the more you
push the more you get out of it. The ability to project vertically whilst drawing the smoothest of lines.

Graphic look is a classic understated look to appeal to a broad spectrum of tastes.

Almost 1kg lighter than the previous model.

Old world designs come back to life once again with the Bonza. In contrast to the Hipster Twin, however, which is all about looseness and tight rail turns, the Bonza is a stark contrast that wants to draw out your turns at speed. Bringing an elegant drawn-out hyper-speed rail game into your surfing.

EFFORTLESS SPEED AND DRIVE

Old world designs come back to life once again with the Bonza. In contrast to the Hipster Twin, however, which is all about looseness and tight rail turns, the Bonza is a stark contrast that wants to draw out your turns at speed. Bringing an elegant drawn-out hyper-speed rail game into your surfing. 

​

​Shape

​

A relatively full nose into smooth outline curve feeding into a wider area pintail. This provides a smooth balanced and stable platform to start with.

​

Its bottom shape is what marries up to this perfectly. A single concave nose that leads into a deep double concave that runs from the midpoint out through a fairly heavy V in the tail. 

​

The deep double concave creates a flat rocker out the tail of the board whilst maintaining rocker curve on the outline, which marries up with the outline curve through the tail. 

​

So it has a smooth carving outline which contains and creates speed when on the front foot driving down the line and then rocks around on its tail outline when you step back on the back foot. 

​

And when that flat rocker and five fin system fits into the speed spot of the wave, the speed and acceleration are unparalleled. As a thruster, it has the same speedy sensations, but with a more traditional fin gripped driven sensation. 

​

Everything old is new again, yet again. 

Footstraps not included

The Smik Wingfoil board range features very short lengths with limited swing weight to make them ultra easy to fly and turn. Extremely versatile machines which have a diverse array of uses which all incorporate new bottom shapes which enhance lift with minimal drag undercarriages that alow quick release up onto the foil and minimal drag when it touches down.

1. As a SUP Foil board: Excellent stubby shape with concave/Chined bottom to assist early lift chined rails forward transitioning to diamond edged aft rails for release with kicker in the rocker line Deck is slightly concave with a slight double concave at the front foot which fits under the arch of the front foot aiding a more planted front foot Various footstrap insert options for a variety of different use. Positions allow for balanced stance while paddling setting your feet up for perfect positioning when paddling into a wave.

2. As a Wing Foil board: ​ With multiple generations of SUP foil boards evolving into out latest shapes, SMIK Wingfoil boards are the perfect blend of easy to use comfort and high performance, with volume only being placed where its needed. ​ Footstrap and foil positioning in relationship to this volume is what's critical, where we feel we have the balance just right for the perfect flight. ​ The new chined bottom shape is all about releasing water when rising onto foil and inadvertent touch downs with minimal drag when you do tough the water whilst up and flying. The hip in the chine leading to the diamond tail is also the most effective way of releasing water effortlessly.

New 2022 Colours and almost a kilo lighter in weight with the full carbon construction.The Hipster Twin is just a case of history repeating itself. It’s almost impossible not to notice the performance that’s evolved from twin fins in the surfing world, with many of the biggest brands having one in their range and all carrying the heritage of the original Mark Richard design. It's how it all started for us, a set of Mark Richard twins with a little nubster fin laying around and thinking how perfect a twinny would be for a SUP, helping loosen things up a bit.

With its fuller nose and moderately compact shape, the Hipster Twin allows you to go shorter with added stability and glide. It doesn't feel awkward to paddle over large distances. Mark Richards was onto something combining the hip in the outline with the 2+1 fin set up as it allows you to draw unparalleled tight arcs without letting go or losing speed. The single concave feeds through a double and releases to a V out the tail to give a frictionless sensation of acceleration and drive coming out of a turn. Rail to rail transitions are some of the smoothest experienced, and the way the Hipster Twin feeds up the face makes everything seem easier. It just feels like there’s a lot less drag, which equates to a sensation of speed. You really notice it when you put the board on rail and see it accelerate. All of this results in longer surfs just because you’re just having way too much fun. It’s as simple as that.

SMIK hasn't re-invented the wheel on this one, but we've done a pretty fine rendition of it. After extensive testing, it was finally possible to find some subtle yet significant changes to the original Hipster Twin which has proven so popular by all that have tried. Still carrying the characteristics that made it so popular initially being a stable board with excellent speed and on-rail turning capabilities, it’s just been ever so slightly tweaked: Outline from the hip forward is slightly straighter to give more control in waves with more power without detracting from its small wave abilities. Deeper double concave which reduces rocker in the middle of the concave while leaving the rail rockerline unchanged for improved acceleration and speed. Tail V has been moved further forward further enhancing its already remarkable smooth rail to rail transition and ability to project more vertically. So whilst the imitators try and replicate the Hipster Twin's success, SMIK raises the bar even further.
