FA-22 RAPTOR V1
The Raptor FA-22 Version 1 is Inspired from the cutting edge U.S air force technology Fighter-Jet and theories of which allow the craft to perform sharp controlled manoeuvres at high speeds. I’ve found that the best way to release the high velocity laminar flow created by the foil outline is a combination of sharp calculated angles, rather than the of curves of a fish tail. Consequently the Raptor tail releases the low pressure flow cleanly which gives the design a free and effortless manoeuvrability and minimal resistance hydroplaning. The Raptor Hydrofoil is an exciting and truely unique future performance surfing experience.
FA-22 RAPTOR V2
The Raptor FA-22 Version 2 is based on the same high speed release theories of the V1 Raptor, the V2 model incorporates the same design fundamentals with a slightly different release angles cutting back from both sides of the of each tails, creating what looks like a double-diamond fish tail. This creates a slight increase in manoeuvrability yet equally as fast as the V1. Suited to a higher level surfer because with greater turning capability at high speed will result in more difficult control for a lower level surfer. This model is highest level all-round performer of all my current Hydrofoil range.
V1 AFTERBURNER (Channel bottom)
Using the same outline as the V1 i have modified the rocker and bottom contours of the V1 afterburner to complement a unique quad-channel cut through a deep Vee-double concave. This provides the design a heightened degree of stability, directional control and hold in powerful conditions. Needless to say this model is F@#k’in Fast and extremely high performance.
