The ENSIS JIVE has become a favourite among riders looking for early lift, efficient speed generation and confidence across a wide range of conditions. Designed around a refined mid-length concept, the JIVE combines stability, agility and effortless take-offs in a shape that feels intuitive from the very first session.

For the new season, the JIVE family expands with the introduction of the all-new JIVE ACE and two additional JIVE sizes, offering even more options for riders seeking the perfect setup for freeride, race, lightwind and parawing foiling.

Introducing the New JIVE ACE

The new JIVE ACE brings ENSIS Advanced Component Engineering (ACE) to the proven JIVE board.

Built with an ultra-light carbon construction, the mid-length board is designed for riders who demand maximum performance with minimum weight. The result is a board that feels exceptionally light underfoot, highly responsive and incredibly efficient in every phase of flight.

Combining the proven JIVE shape with premium ACE construction, the JIVE ACE delivers effortless acceleration, early foil lift and precise control whether you're freeriding, racing, chasing light wind sessions or exploring the growing world of parawing foiling.

Key Highlights

  • Ultra-light carbon ACE construction

  • Exceptional responsiveness

  • Early and efficient foil lift

  • Minimal swing weight

  • Excellent lightwind performance

  • Quick recovery from touchdowns

Mid-Length Done Right

The JIVE ACE is built around a shape that has already proven itself in real-world conditions.

Its long and narrow outline generates speed efficiently, helping riders get onto foil earlier and with less effort than many traditional board shapes. By positioning the foil tracks further forward and adding length behind the foil, the board maintains excellent efficiency while reducing swing weight for a surprisingly agile feel.

The balanced volume distribution provides impressive stability while waiting for take-off and the tucked rails allow the board to sit deeper in the water for greater control. Once on foil, the spacious deck and responsive platform make carving, pumping and technical manoeuvres feel intuitive and precise.

Whether navigating light wind conditions, carving swell lines or pushing performance in race environments, the JIVE ACE delivers confidence and efficiency throughout the session.

Why Riders Are Choosing Mid-Length Boards

Mid-length boards have become increasingly popular because they combine the efficiency of a longer board with the agility and control riders expect from a compact setup. The extended shape helps generate speed effortlessly, making take-offs easier and allowing riders to get on foil earlier, especially in light wind conditions.

The JIVE ACE takes full advantage of this concept. Its streamlined shape and minimal drag help build speed efficiently, while the pintail design promotes quick acceleration and effective pumping. Combined with its featherlight ACE construction, the board feels highly responsive and direct underfoot.

For parawing riders, the reduced swing weight and balanced shape create a lively and intuitive ride, making it easy to get on foil and navigate bumps with confidence. For racers and performance-oriented wingfoilers, the efficient waterline and direct board feedback translate into faster acceleration, improved efficiency and confident control across a wide range of conditions.

 

The JIVE Family Continues to Grow

Alongside the introduction of the JIVE ACE, the trusted JIVE range expands with two new sizes: 62L and 120L.

The new 62L size provides an additional option for lighter riders or those looking for a more compact performance-oriented setup. At the other end of the range, the new 120L size offers increased flotation and accessibility, making the JIVE board available to a wider range of riders and conditions.

The JIVE remains the versatile mid-length option within the ENSIS lineup, combining early lift, excellent stability and responsive handling in a durable and proven construction.

Key Highlights

  • Early and efficient lift

  • Great stability

  • Quick and intuitive underfoot

  • Direct and intuitive foil control

  • Radical carving

  • Quick recovery from touchdowns 

  • Excellent planning
