APPLETREE Apple Skipper Midlength Foilboard
Description
Description
Designed for prone, wing, and parawing riders
The new Skipper Midlength is Appletree’s answer to the growing demand for the one board quiver killer. It shines in lighter wind, prone setups, foil assist, and as a progression board for wing and parawing.
Inspired by the need for a true performance MidLength, we took its predecessor and, with feedback from riders around the world, refined everything we didn’t love while preserving what we did. The result is a board that’s efficient, versatile, and forgiving: prone it, wing it, or parawing it!
Designed for Versatility Across Disciplines
The Skipper Midlength is built to serve a wide range of riders:
- Smaller Sizes: Perfect for prone riders and experienced wing/para-wing users. Also great for riders using foil assist systems who don’t want to fully commit to the Zapple.
- Mid-Range Sizes: Optimized for all-around performance for both wing and parawing, balanced, responsive, with superb low end for the volume.
- Larger Sizes: Ideal for light wind sessions, providing excellent efficiency and lift in low-power conditions.
Fast and Fluid Feels
The Skipper Midlength features a displacement hull. A streamlined, canoe-like shape that moves through water with minimal resistance. This design builds speed quickly and allows for early takeoffs whether you’re on a floater or sinker setup. It excels in marginal conditions where speed and glide are key, but it’s equally at home in bigger, windier and more demanding conditions.
Performance-Driven Design Upgrades:
- Longer Hard Rails: For improved water release at takeoff.
- Extra Tail Rocker: Solves tail-catching issues in turns and bumpy water, adding responsiveness.
- Narrower Outline: Boosts efficiency, enhances agility, and keeps the board out of the water in hard carves.
- Forward Foil Box Positioning: Reduces swing weight, making the board feel shorter and livelier on foil. Longer boxes to fit all foils on the market.
- Y setup inserts and comfortable deck pads: come standard for added convenience and comfort. New micro adjust hole layout, for ultra precise strap placement
Apple Skipper Midlength vs. Apple Slice V3
While the Apple Slice V3 shares the narrow feel, it’s a very different ride. It features a planing hull, making it more stable and beginner-friendly. If you’re new to winging or ride in heavier conditions, the Slice V3 might be your better match.
The Apple Skipper Midlength shines in lighter wind, prone setups, foil assist, and as a progression board for parawing.
Vacuum-infused Construction, Appletree Standard
Every Skipper Midlength comes in our proven full carbon vacuum-infused construction, with closed cell foam core. Lightweight, durable, and built to last.
Easy-to-Recognize Sizing
Every Skipper Midlength board size ends in the number 7, making them easy to identify within the Appletree collection. When you see a volume number ending in 7, you’ll know it’s part of the Skipper Midlength series.
