Another plus of our 50K foam is that it is closed cell, meaning that the foam will not take in water, and the board will not blow out when it gets hot.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e100%\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eCARBON\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eFIBER CONSTRUCTION\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAll our foil boards are produced in our 100% carbon fiber construction. You want carbon fiber in a foil board for its stiffness and strength. A stiff board will give you the best control and response from the foil. Also stiffness will make pumping the foil much more effective. With carbon fiber we are able to make the board extremely strong while really light at the same time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe most stress in a foil board is in the connection of the foil to the board. So this is where we put extra care and attention to make it the strongest connection available. The foil mount is CNC cut with the board, for the highest precision. We only use FUTURES oneshot boxes as they are the strongest in the industry.  The boxes are placed in a panel of ultra high density PET honeycomb. This PET honeycomb itself is sandwiched in carbon again. Meaning there is carbon fiber both inside the board and outside. The honeycombs open structure ensures a solid connection between inside and outside, fusing everything together into a solid block.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOur lamination is completely different as well. We use a vacuum technique developed in house, where we layer all the carbon fiber, and reinforcements on the board dry. Then we extract all the air from the bag and inject the epoxy resin under pressure. This results in the tightest lamination possible, with the best ration between fiber and epoxy. It also gives 100% connection to the core so the boards do not delaminate. Extra patches under the feet prevent heel denting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInserts in our foil range are made from blocks of high density material. And can be customized position wise. These blocks are also fused to the core so they never pull out.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe Zapple Board comes with:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFoil Drive Signal Window\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFull black EVA deck pad\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Appletree long foil boxes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA matte finish, in clear carbon\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSize Chart\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cimg alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0967\/1948\/files\/Screen_Shot_2025-02-13_at_4.21.02_pm.png?v=1739424082\"\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ciframe title=\"Introducing the Zapple: Designed for Foil Drive!\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/PSea_avS9Nw\" height=\"718\" width=\"1276\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/appletreesurfboards.com\/technology\/\"\u003e\u003cimg class=\"alignnone size-productcontent wp-image-620\" src=\"https:\/\/appletreesurfboards.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/eco-board-sustainable-surf-logo-fit.svg\" alt=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Appletree","offers":[{"title":"5ft 0in (38L) x 18.5in","offer_id":50708544323815,"sku":"AT-Zapple-5ft0in-38L","price":3110.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"5ft 4in (46L) x 18.5in","offer_id":51966483038439,"sku":"AT-Zapple-5ft4in-46L","price":3180.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"5ft 8in (54L) x 19.5in","offer_id":51966483071207,"sku":"AT-Zapple-5ft8in-54L","price":3250.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0967\/1948\/files\/Zapple-45-deck-1024x1024.png?v=1775801742"},{"product_id":"north-2026-boost-foilboard","title":"North 2026 Boost Foilboard","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFor electric-assisted foiling on flatwater, surf and open ocean, the Boost provides fast lift to foil with impressive stability.
