How to choose your board

Finding Your Perfect Fit

For the 2025 lineup, the Turtle Wing R&D team dedicated countless hours to fine-tuning the ideal balance between board volume and dimensions.

Your board should offer just enough volume to keep you afloat—without sacrificing early lift-off, maneuverability, speed, or overall performance on the water.

As wing foiling continues to progress at a rapid pace, we’ve prioritized increased strength and stiffness in our board designs.

With riders going bigger and pushing the boundaries with new tricks, we knew our gear had to rise to the occasion.

To help you find the right board, we’ve created a quick reference guide tailored to different rider profiles.
When choosing your next Turtle Wing board, it’s essential to factor in your experience, body weight, and the conditions you typically ride in.

As a rule of thumb, your ideal board volume is closely tied to both your skill level and weight—these simple guidelines will help you get started in the right direction.

Beginner:
Your Weight + 40L.
For example, if you weight 70kg and want to learn the sport, then you may want to go for a Carve Pro V6,  or In general, beginners should look at boards with a volume of 100L and above.

Intermediate:
Your Weight = Volume.
Once you have a good handle on your wing and foil, the volume of your board can roughly match your weight.
If you’re 60kg, then most of our smaller Carve Pro V6, Carve Mini Pro XL v3 or Carve Mini Pro v6 and Air Flow 4,  board range will fit your needs, depending on your program.
These boards will bring confidence and control, and will allow you to continuously improve.

Advanced:
Weight – 15L on.
As you improve, reducing the volume of your board gives you more maneuverability, responsiveness, and speed. The sky is the limit.
