2022 JP HYDROFOIL LXT 155 Used foiling board in pre owned but un used condition . Has a couple of light scratches and slight dent from being in the back of a van .
JP’s HydroFoils were one of the very first specialised boards for foiling and they were trendsetters right from the start of the foil revolution. The overall range of use and the all-round appeal of the first two generations made them extremely popular and successful on the market. Get ready to meet the third generation! The two boards can best be summarised as user-friendly scaled-down versions of the 'HF Slalom' model. The updates make the brand-new shapes easier to access, to control and to fly. Being super comfortable to ride, they are also more efficient and faster. The 133 and 155 represent JP’s most balanced mix of user-friendliness combined with top foil performance.
The steady nose rocker combined with a soft tuck line and bevels in the front make for a smooth and forgiving entry once the nose comes down on the water - an essential, as many beginners tend to nosedive. The noses don’t dig into the water but will bounce back off the water and you will keep flying.
The V-angled nose bevels clear the rail from touching the water when pushing down the windward rail – especially when sailing upwind. This way, the board can be tilted and more power applied to the foil for more acceleration and speed.
The flat deck shape and the ideally positioned foot straps make for an upright stance to control the power of the foil. Volume and width help to lift the boards out of the water early.
The tail cut-outs reduce the volume in the tail. These cut outs also make it easier to get flying earlier by being able to push the wide tail down easily and ‘pump the foil’ during take-off.
105 and 120:
Very short, lively and exciting, they are the right tools to explore new boundaries of the sport – for higher winds, small sails and advanced riders. Compared to the big boards, the compact boards with narrower outlines offer a more centred stance and very responsive fun feel!
