The FOILSZ Design Brief

smart design and quality components

The design brief could not have been simpler. We wanted to design a high-performance foiling solution for a mass produced boat so that more people could enjoy the thrill of sail foiling.

The essential design elements were -

  • simple fitting to a standard Laser with no modifications to the boat or rig
  • high performance foiling in all sailable weather conditions
  • the ability to launch in shallow water from a standard Laser beach trolley
  • foils that can be fully raised or lowered from within the boat
  • an inexpensive foiling solution for all sailors
  • precision engineering and high quality components

The foiling kit had to be ready to go "straight out of the box" so that users can go foiling as soon as the kit is fitted. Everything is just right, from the foils that are designed at exactly the right angle, to the sophisticated wand system.

The design brief was also to make a kit of great quality that would give owners many years of pleasure. It had to dependable and as a result great care has been taken over the tooling, material selection and method of construction of the various FOILSZ components.

Not only will your FOILSZ kit provide hours of foiling enjoyment, the quality design and components will make sure you enjoy it for years to come.


With the FOILSZ foiling kit for Lasers, you can be foiling with little expense or effort.
