Product details
Key Features
Designed for light wind
Having 3 struts allows for bigger sizes with shorter wingspans, providing more power in a user-friendly design. Ideal for light wind conditions.
Boom style
The boom allows intuitive hand positioning and seamless transitions. Enjoy precise control, effortless adjustments and confident one-handed riding.
Remarkably lightweight
The DRIVE features a hybrid leading edge construction, resulting in a remarkably lightweight wing. This makes handling easy and significantly reduces arm fatigue.
Early take off
Whether you prefer pumping, or a passive take off, the compact design and high lift profile make it easy to generate speed for take-off. You will fly in a breeze.
High efficiency and power
The 3-strut design ensures a clean canopy profile for efficient power delivery. Its compact design delivers balanced, controlled handling, making even larger sizes feel smaller. The result is smooth, consistent power combined with impressive efficiency.
Easy handling
The boxy shape and increased arc angle keep the wingtips from touching the water. Wing foiling with large wing sizes is made easy.
Stable in stronger winds
The two side struts provide additional stability, and the profile keeps its shape and stays stable also in stronger winds. No need to rush back to the beach when the wind picks up.
Clear view
The windows are ideally placed. A good view is even more important with large wings.
Tech Features
Hybrid leading edge
The hybrid leading edge construction makes the wing substantially lightweight. Stiff Dacron in combination with light Dacron in the wingtips reduces the swing weight for comfortable riding and offers controlled twisting of the wingtips.
High rigidity
The diameter of the central leading edge segments has been designed to enhance rigidity, ensuring stability and high performance under load.
High lift profile
The profile has a flat entry with deeper volume set further back, putting the power upfront for easy acceleration and making the wing feel light in the hands even when well powered.
ENSIS Click Fix mounting system
The ENSIS Click Fix mounting system allows an ultra-rigid connection to the strut. Several reinforcements in the strut ensure a durable, tearproof attachment of the mounting plates to the strut.
Twist-lock valve
The ENSIS SCORE features a twist-lock inflation valve – commonly used on inflatable SUPs – for quick, secure, and hassle-free setup. Reliable and easy to use, it ensures you’re ready to ride in no time.
Deflate valve
The deflate dump valve on the strut ensures quick and easy deflation, allowing for compact and convenient packing.
Leightweight soft battens
The soft-mini-battens keep the trailing edge from fluttering while remaining very light and unable to damage your wing when packing.
Durable, pack approved windows
The ENSIS windows are made of exclusively tempered film, tested and approved in the cold Swiss winter and in the tropics. It can be packed into a small bag without compromising its performance.
Best quality, precise processing
ENSIS wings are built from the highest quality materials and finished with precision. This ensures an exceptionally robust and durable wing.
