Design overview
The Mantis platform is built around all-round usability: stable handling when flagged out, smooth power delivery when sheeted in, and predictable behaviour in transitions. The sizing range from 2m through 6m makes it easy to build a practical quiver for a wide range of rider weights and wind conditions, whether you’re riding flatwater, small swell or mixed freeride sessions.
Key strengths
- Balanced drive: smooth power delivery designed for controlled acceleration and comfortable cruising
- Predictable handling: stable feel that supports progression and reduces rider fatigue
- Transition-friendly: easy to manage through gybes, tacks and hand changes
- Quiver flexibility: wide size range (2–6m) supports both high-wind and low-wind coverage
Ride character (on the water)
On the water, the Mantis is intended to feel composed and confidence-inspiring—power comes on smoothly, and the wing is easy to regulate with small sheeting adjustments. The goal is a wing that stays comfortable during long freeride sessions while remaining responsive enough to feel engaging through turns and transitions.
