USER GUIDE
HOW TO SETUP YOUR FANATIC SKY WING

Place the board on a flat surface - grass is ideal. Make sure there are no rocks or seashells
under your board that could damage the board.
Basically there are 3 dierent mounting-options for your front foot. The strap for your
backfoot is always mounted straight on the center line with double srews on each side
(4 screws). Your front straps are screwed with 1 screw on each side (2 screws).
Attach a single diagonal footstrap (option 1 & 2), when you don‘t want to switch your
feet. Many riders prefer this setup in the surf, to stay in a regular or goofy surf stance
at all time. But also for flat water and freestyle this setup is very popular.
If you prefer to change your stance, we recommend the setup with 3 footstraps (option 3),
or the option with a straight front strap (option 4).

We recommend beginners to start foiling without footstraps! As this is the most
simple and safest way to learn. Once you feel safe on the board, it’s time to mount
the foot-straps and enter the next level.
General advice:
Some footstraps are attached using 4 screws. Others are mounted with 2 screws.
Take care to install the screws straight from the top with constant down pressure
while turning the screwdriver. Also, be caused not to overtight them!

HOW TO ATTACH THE FOOTSTRAPS
possible footstrap screw position

The standing position has a close
relation to the position and the
character of your foil. A good
starting point is using all straps in
the middle options of the footstrap
inserts.
By moving the straps forwards and
backwards you can trim the board
to your personal preferenc and
adapt the stance to your body size
and the position of your foil.
If you feel too much
pressure on your back
foot while foiling you
should move the foil
forward in the tracks
or mount the straps
further back.
If you feel too much
pressure on your front
foot to keep the foil in
the water, move the
foil back or position
your straps forward.
If you have small and
narrow feet, you can
use the inserts closer
to each other for a
tight and good fit in
the straps.

HOW TO MOUNT THE FOIL TO YOUR BOARD
Attention! Only use with supplied track nuts and screws - using longer screws can
damage your board.
Insert the supplied track nuts into the foil tracks of your board.
Place the mast on the foil tracks. If you don’t have any further instructions on the
correct mast position, start with a position in the middle of the track.
Align the track nuts under the inserts for the screws. Insert the screws and tighten
them. Make an extra round and make sure all screws are tight!

Now attach your back wing to your fuselage and mount the fuselage to the
mast. Assamble your front wing on the fuselage and make sure that all screws
are tight.

CLOSE THE AIR VENT / ATTACH LEASH
Most of our boards come with
a self-breathing air vent.
Make sure it‘s installed
correctly before entering the
water for the first time. Self-
breathing air vents don‘t need
to be touched after correct
installation.
If your board comes with a
classic air vent that is installed
with a screwdriver, make sure
you pull it tight before entering
the water. Open a non self-
breathing air vent, when your
board is exposed to extensive
heat or before taking a flight
with your board.
