Moses becomes SABFOIL - the Ferrari of kite and wing foils

Published May 18, 2021 · by The GlissEvolution Team

Moses, a premium foil brand for over 10 years, is now SABFOIL.

SABFOIL crafts carbon foils in Italy, in a facility at the cutting edge of technology.
Just as the best cars in the automotive world are Italian, like Ferraris, the best foils are also Italian.

This Italian brand offers a complete range of foils for kitesurf, wingfoil, SUP, and windsurf.The foils listed are in the Wing Foils section of the shop.

Their extensive range can be tricky to navigate. But once you find the right foil for your needs, you'll never want to change.

FRONT WING:

Let's start with the Front Wings.
The first thing to know is that Italians use width to describe their wings, while the rest of the world uses surface area. Surface area is much more useful for comparing a foil wing.
We always include the surface area in our descriptions.

Sabfoil offers over fifteen Front Wings. These range from very round shapes, like the W633 / 1239cm² for freeride kite, to elongated race-oriented shapes like the 670 / 570cm² for kite race. They also have the 1100 / 2100cm² for wing beginners.

MAST:

All SABFOIL masts are carbon. Carbon masts offer numerous advantages over aluminum: they are lighter and stiffer. They also have a thinner, faster profile.
Their speed lets you use a larger, easier Front Wing, so your overall setup remains very fast. This gives you uncompromising ease and performance.

Here are the mast lists:

The 72 mast, in C40 carbon, is the most affordable mast in the Moses range.
The 82 mast, in high-end "Honda" carbon, is ideal for wing foil and kite.
The 91 mast, in high-end "Honda" carbon, is ideal for kitesurf.
The 92 mast, in high-end "Honda" carbon, is a variant of the 91 mast. It's slightly thicker and stiffer, designed for large Front Wings in wingfoiling. It's also ideal for kite, though it has a bit more drag than the 91 mast.


Stabilizer or REAR WING:

SABFOIL offers 5 stabilizers, each with different shapes and sizes.
We recommend following SABFOIL's advice and choosing the stabilizer recommended for your Front Wing.

Fuselage:

Several fuselages are available. As with the stabilizers, we recommend choosing the fuselage suggested for your kit.

Almost all components are compatible. You can combine nearly any Front Wing with any mast or stabilizer. However, we advise sticking to SABFOIL's recommended configurations for two reasons:
These kits have been tested and validated to ensure all elements work perfectly together.
If you customize, you'll purchase each component individually, increasing the price by about 25%.

Boards:

Moses offers specific boards for kite-foiling, as well as Wing boards developed by Baltz Muller, one of the world's top Wing riders.


GlissEvolution has selected the ideal foil pack for your riding style:

KITE:

Do you want an easy-to-use yet high-performance foil?
Look no further than the M91 - W633/1239 - S483 - FS710 kit.
This translates to: 91cm carbon mast, W633 Front Wing (633mm wingspan, 1239cm² surface area), 483 stabilizer, and 710mm fuselage.
Even with a 1239cm² Front Wing, which might seem large for kitefoiling, this foil remains very fast and can reach speeds over 25 knots. It also offers excellent stability and makes maneuvers easy, thanks to its superb lift.



Do you want to go fast while remaining accessible?
Choose the M91 - W590/650 - S330 - FK647 kit.
This translates to: 91cm carbon mast, W590 Front Wing (590mm wingspan, 650cm² surface area), 483 stabilizer, and 710mm fuselage.
This foil is what we call "Freerace" and is IKA approved for youth competitions.



SABFOIL offers about ten other packs. We invite you to check out their official website: https://sabfoil.com/en/kite-surf/kits-kite-foil

WING:

Are you looking for an easy-to-use yet high-performance foil to start with?
Choose the M82 - W1100/2100 - S483 - F700-HS kit.
This translates to: 82cm mast, W1100 wing (1100mm wingspan, 2100cm² surface area), 483 stabilizer, and 700 high-resistance torsion fuselage.
This pack is recommended for heavier riders or wing riders who want an easy foil that gets on plane early.

Do you want a slightly smaller foil that remains accessible?
O
pt for the same configuration as above, but with the W950 Front Wing, with a surface area of 1600cm² (kit M82 - W950/1600 - S483 - F700-HS).
This is the recommended foil for most wing riders.

Are you a lighter rider, or already experienced, and want an affordable, full carbon foil kit?
Opt for the KIT72C40 - W790/1550 - S450 - F700-HS pack.
This translates to: 72cm C40 carbon mast (less performant than Honda carbon), W790 Front Wing (790 wingspan, 1550cm² surface area), 450 stabilizer, and 700 high-torsion resistance fuselage.

Do you wing and kite?

No worries, the compatibility between MOSES equipment allows you to have the same gear, only changing the front fin.
First, you must choose if you prefer an 82cm "short" mast, or a 91cm "long" mast.
We strongly recommend a long mast for kite. Using a long mast in wing provides "tolerance" in height variations, but a little less stability. We therefore recommend a "long" mast.
Then, you need to define your Front Wings. For example, the 633/1239cm² for kite, and the 950/1600cm² for wing.
In this case, you just need to acquire the Kite kit: M91 - W633/1239 - S483 - FS710, and just take the Front Wing W950/1600cm², which you will mount on your kite kit when you do wing.
Optionally, you can change the stab, but it is not necessary.
