So uphauling is an important consideration, and the Alien has enough volume forward to allow traditional uphaul technique with one foot either side of the mast base. A lot of volume in the back half of the board allows you to get into the straps before the board is even moving, and then kick-start up onto the foil.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLENGTH\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eShorter length reduces the leverage and lift required by the foil to get the board out of the water and keep it there. So the Alien is much shorter than normal freeride boards, but still has enough length to be able to use the nose area for down-force at high speeds, balancing the lift from the foil. Having some length at the front also softens re-entry, minimizing catastrophic touch-downs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWIDTH\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe width of the board matches the widths of the foils it’s designed for. Too wide and the board has too much leverage over the foil and it’s easy to overpower the foil or not have enough support. Too narrow and the foil can dictate where the board goes. So we balance it up – Alien widths are 65-75cm wide, and designed for similar width foils.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eBALANCE\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe board is but a single part of the foiling windsurfer, and must work in harmony with other components; the foil and the rig.\u003cbr\u003eThe geometry of all 3 components (Foil, Board, Sail) work together to promote an upright stance. This requires only small movements for the rider to trim the ride – less effort and a quicker response to control increasing or decreasing lift.\u003cbr\u003eWith everything working together, the balance of flight is effortless.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMAST TRACK\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTo achieve balance, the mast track is positioned further back to keep the rig standing vertical rather than the traditional raked back position. A vertical rig is more stable, and positions the sails’ CoE directly above the lift of the front wing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFOOTSTRAPS\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe rider’s feet are positioned either side of the front wing, and straps are positioned closer together for a more upright stance. This allows smaller movements to maintain foil trim, and keeps the riders weight directly above the foil lift.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe foiling stance is more rotated outwards towards the rail. Less load on the rig means the twist angles necessitate more rig sheeting, and to feel comfortable in this position the back foot is out near the rail and the front strap angle is reduced.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCONTOURS\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBOTTOM GEOMETRY\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe bottom shape on the Alien has 2 parts; forward half to manage touch-downs and the back half to accelerate to take-off velocity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e1. From the mast track forward, everything makes touch-downs as gentle and less violent as possible. Big bevels, tucked rails, lots of nose lift. The wide angles on all the edges make it very forgiving when the nose connects with the water from any direction – this prevents the nose catching and tripping, and often simply redirects the nose back into the air.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e2. From the mast track back, it’s all about take-off. Sharp rails, flat rocker, parallel outline. The bottom shape is flat for minimal drag, and features large cutouts to enable the tail to be kicked down to angle the board up for acceleration and take-off.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDECK GEOMETRY\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe deck contours have been designed to allow the nose area to be used like a sail to create downforce at higher speeds. This effect can be used to balance the increased lift from the foil. By angling the board to windward and presenting the nose area to the wind, the concave deck shape fills with wind and holds the front down.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"et_pb_module et_pb_text et_pb_text_8 et_pb_text_align_left et_pb_bg_layout_light\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"et_pb_text_inner\"\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eLIGHT IS RIGHT\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"et_pb_module et_pb_text et_pb_text_9 et_pb_text_align_left et_pb_bg_layout_light\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"et_pb_text_inner\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"page\" title=\"Page 6\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"layoutArea\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"column\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhen trying to get something to fly, light is right.
