Prone foiling has been a part of the hydrofoil riding scene ever since modern day hydrofoils came into play. In the beginning, it posed a great challenge to figure out how to ride and foil properly. However, the barriers have been broken down and now, with the right equipment and board, anyone can enjoy the world of prone foiling.
The Bump range offers two distinct shapes that cater to everyone, from beginners to professionals. Whether you're just starting out or you're a seasoned pro, there's a board for you. Pair it with your favorite foil and prepare to experience a whole new way of maximizing your time on the water.
The Bump boards feature a round pin, nose-entry-V to planing surface, fast rocker, high rail-chine, and a concave deck. The nose-entry-V design ensures efficient glide and take-off, while the pulled in kick tail with high-chine rail flow enhances efficiency, allows for earlier flight, and provides clearance for on-foil carving.
There are two sizes available: small and large. The small size is perfect for high-performance surfing and maximum maneuverability. On the other hand, the large size offers easy paddling, take-off, and forgiving touchdowns, making it suitable for all conditions.
Constructed with a reactive and lightweight carbon hybrid, the Bump boards feature an exceptionally light and buoyant EPS core wrapped in full carbon. This combination provides the perfect balance of weight and strength.
For those getting into prone foiling for the first time, the larger model is ideal. It offers stability and ease of use. The smaller model, on the other hand, allows professionals to showcase their skills.
The Bump boards also boast a subtle concave deck, which adds even more control over the board and foil, especially when riding on longer masts. The design is focused on getting you up and gliding with minimal effort, thanks to its forward V into a planing surface.
The small model features aggressive rail chines, allowing for harder carves, while the reduced side chines on the large model provide a stable platform for paddling.
The rounded pin tail not only pays homage to surf heritage but also helps avoid touchdowns by pulling in the tail. Additionally, the straight edge rail chines on the Bump boards assist during aggressive carves and turns, preventing the rail from touching the water.
With its new concave deck, the Bump lowers the foot position, increasing reactivity and response. This results in a more direct feeling through the board and the most efficient power transfer to date.
From the very first wave, Theo, a rider who has tried the Bump, immediately felt that it would become his go-to prone board. Its ability to gain speed smoothly and release water quickly at takeoff makes catching waves of any size effortless. The concave deck offers excellent control, and the beveled rails and narrow design provide limitless carving possibilities. With its specific prone design and lightweight construction, the Bump is set to unlock your potential for progression.
In summary, with the right equipment and the Bump range of prone foiling boards, anyone can enter the world of prone foiling. Whether you're a beginner or a professional, the Bump has you covered, offering performance, stability, control, and endless carving opportunities. Don't miss out on this exciting way to enhance your water time and unlock your true prone foiling potential.
