Designed with performance, hydrodynamic efciency and durability in mind. This modular platform can be tuned for every type

of foiling: Surf, SUP, downwind, tow, wake, kite and wingfoiling.

It’s an extremely versatile foiling platform with all the necessary add-ons to allow you to customize your NSP Airwave across the entire

watersports spectrum, no matter the riders weight or ability.

The backbone of the NSP Airwave is the unique 13.5cm (5.31”) wide 6061-T6 Aluminum mast. It is substantially wider than other masts

for additional strength and directional stability. Connected to our beefed-up, precision CNC-cut 6061-T6

Aluminum fuselage, the Airwave will withstand loads generated from high speed turns and those inevitable wipe-outs.

The 6061-T6 Aluminum twin track mounting plate perfectly balances strength and weight. Control and lift can be adjusted with the

interchangeable shims under the rear wings for the right combination of lift, stability and speed.

NSP wings are built to last, featuring a reinforced foam core laminated with 100% pre-preg 3K carbon ber.

The rear wings with cutoff marks are fully made from carbon, allowing you to tweak its ride characteristics by cutting off the tips.

NSP Airwave wings will handle regular wear and tear and the inevitable groundings.

By observing and learning from some of the most well-adapted species in nature, our

new Riblet Series is the fastest foil in the NSP range.

Striking a perfect balance between efcient lift and rail-to-rail maneuvering, a Riblet

wing is incredibly responsive.

The new anhedral design translates into glide, stability and excellent speed. The

improved control adds to a feeling of “being connected” once you are on foil.

Riblet wings are excellent for wing- and surf foiling in high-wind conditions, but will

also perform as endless downwindewrs for advanced foilers who can leverage the

efcient shape of these wings.

(Note: We strongly recommend using the all new mast shim with the Riblet to ne

tune the performance).

Designed as high-aspect stabilizers, Riblet Rear Wings perform best in combination

with their front wing counterparts, creating sustained glide and extreme maneuverability.

The 225 and 275 combine well with the Riblet 1025 FW and Riblet 1225 FW

Four shims are available for the Riblet series, ranging from 0 to 3 degrees.

All Riblet rear wings use M6x20 screws.

NSP Gull Wings come in two sizes; the tried-and-tested 1720 and a new 2100 as well.

The Gull Wing Series has softer winglets that increase maneuverability, while retaining

stability. This makes these front wings a game changer for beginners who are just

getting into foiling, intermediate riders looking to increase their skills or expert free

riders looking for a wing that works in all conditions.

NSP’s high-aspect (HA) gliders are available in four sizes.

The 1050 is the latest addition to our HA line-up, ideally used in big downwind

conditions, big surf and for any rider wanting more speed from their setup. Perfect for

surf, SUP and wingfoiling, the new glider series are the basis of any foiling quiver.

On the smaller glider wings, the reduction of surface area means less drag, increased

efciency and maneuverability, better acceleration and more top-end speed.

All HA sizes have been tweaked for a looser ride and increased maneuverability,

allowing for lightning fast turns and drawn out circles.

RW 245 HIGH ASPECT WING

• The rear wings have also been tweaked for improvised turning, increased acceleration

and minimal drag.

• Thanks to our new solid carbon ber construction, all rear wings are exceptionally

rigid, reducing the level of input needed while up on foil.

• Both simulations and test reports found a top-mount solution improved efciency

and we redesigned the NSP fuselage, allowing it to carry rear wings on the top.

• The Shims have been redesigned and can be used for the 330, 340, and 245 rear

wings.

• The attachment point of 245 wing has been redesigned to ensure the best angle

of attack when in the water.

• New cutoff marks on the 245 allow you to easily reduce the surface area by up to

35cm2 down to 225 or right up to a surface of 210, really loosening up the foil. (For

instance, trimming down the 245 changes its ride from HA to a great stabilizer

for surf foiling).

• The 330 will use M6x20 screws, the 340 & 245 uses M6x25. All screws are provided

in the modular set.

NSP Rear Wings are available in the foiling sizes:

- The 330 is the best allrounder for all conditions

- The 340 M wing is best for surf and windsurf

- The 245 works as a high-aspect glider or trimmed down for a loose, surf ride

Suggested Front and Rear Wing Pairing

GULL WING PAIRING:

• Best to start with the 330 Rear Wing as it is the most

stable and most allround rear wing in the range.

• The 340 M Rear Wing is better suited for surf or windsurf

foiling. Handling is fast, changes in directions swift

and free riders, windsurfers, wing and kite surfers.

Radical surfers are best served with a 245 Rear Wing

that they trim down to their liking.

• Riders looking specically to go windsurf foiling are

going High Aspect to get the best performance from

the 85cm fuselage as it is the most stable size in the

fuselage range.

GLIDER WING PAIRING:

The 245 High-Aspect rear wings perform best in down

wind and wing foiling applications. Cutting the winglets

from the Rear Wings converts them from high-aspect

to more of a stabilizer, best used by radical surfers

who prefer a loose feel and the ability to turn quickly.

While the aspect ratio remains high compared to the

330 and 340, its directional stability is removed in

exchange for a more skate-like ride.

RIBLET WING PAIRING:

Riblet Rear Wings work best with the Riblet Front

Wings but the R&D team is extremely stoked about

riding the Riblet Front Wings paired with the 245

High Aspect Rear Wing as a stabilizer.

Furthermore its turned out that pairing the 1225 &

1425 Riblet Front Wings with the 330 Rear Wing is

a great allround combination, a perfect compromise

of speed and maneuverability

FUSELAGE

The fuselage range for the Airwave is now expanded with two additional sizes;

the 57.5cm and 60cm fuselage. What’s more, we have also redesigned the

Airwave fuselage

Inserted threads

Adding marine-grade stainless steel insert threads has drastically increased

the integrity of the Airwave system

Tail mount ipped

After countless hours of testing and an appropriate amount of computational

uid dynamics, we found that ipping the tail eliminates signicant drag and

turbulence, so from now on, rear wings are mounted on the top of the fuselage

Reworked tail section

By adding thickness and width, NSP fuselages will now accommodate deeper

screws for a more secure connection

57.5cm for Radical Surf

The ultra-short, 57.5cm fuselage is perfect for advanced wake- and surf foilers

wanting to go from rail-to-rail as quick as possible and perform lightning fast

turns

60cm for stable and fast turning

Super-responsive but balanced, your gybe is going to be tighter, consistent

and most of all, easier. Your pumping cadence also improves, allowing for some

very big wings to be pumped

70cm Allround

Included as the standard go-to fuselage in the Modular Kit, the 70cm is our

best allround option for foilers wanting stability, prolonged glide and efciency

The 70cm is also ideal for downwind runs

85cm for windsurf foiling

The 85cm is our longest, stiffest and most directional fuselage. Great for

beginning foilers trying to wake for the first time, and wingfoilers looking to

get the most out of their larger kit

MASTS

With a width of 13.5mm, NSP masts are 22.5% wider than conventional masts on the market. The wider chord allows for a more efcient foil prole, directional stability

and the use of high-rigidity 6061-T6 aircraft-grade aluminum. All Airwave masts feature three full-length channels for the stiffest possible construction. Airwave masts

are anodized for protection and a branded look, sealed with silicone plugs to keep them waterproof.

Designed to distribute forces as evenly as possible, The CNC-cut, anodized

aluminum Airwave base has open slots for easy mounting and ne-tuning.

With the mast embedded in a solid four-centimeter sleeve, the mounting

plate will handle all the loads you can exert on your NSP Airwave.

For riders wanting to use their Airwave on a tuttle box, swapping the mounting

plate with a tuttle converter allows you to use an even wider variety of boards

for your Airwave.
