Starboard X Airush FreeWing Air 7m – Where Innovation Meets the Wind

The Airush FreeWing Air 7m is the result of a powerful collaboration between two industry giants – Starboard and Airush. Drawing from decades of windsurfing and kitesurfing innovation, this wing delivers exceptional performance, ease of use, and long-term durability. Whether you’re just entering the world of wingfoiling or progressing into more advanced maneuvers, the FreeWing Air is designed to adapt, support, and thrill.

Refined Design for Real-World Riding

The wing’s mid-aspect, slightly squat profile makes it beginner-friendly, especially for shorter riders or those just learning to handle a wing. Its shape minimizes the risk of wingtip contact with the water – a common issue for newer riders. Larger sizes, like this 7m version, feature inward-angled wingtips for even greater tip clearance. The tips are also reinforced with Kevlar scuff protection, ideal for rougher launch spots.

Rigid Power with Flexible Control

A standout feature of the Starboard X Airush FreeWing Air is the massive central strut, which runs thick along its entire length. This makes pumping into the wind responsive and efficient, even in lighter breezes. Five well-placed rigid handles provide versatile grip options. Riders will find optimal balance and smooth power delivery by using the front and rear handles. The Y-handles connecting the strut and leading edge offer better control during transitions and enhanced leverage for beginners learning to pump.

Windowed Visibility and Smart Build

The FreeWing includes forward-placed windows for improved visibility downwind and in crowded waters. Though this adds some weight, especially noticeable in light onshore winds, it greatly enhances safety and situational awareness. The canopy features a deep-profile Ripstop panel, framed by tough Dacron and reinforced seams that reduce flutter. There’s also sewn-in harness line loops—a windsurf-inspired nod for long upwind sessions.

Practical Transport and Details

Instead of folding, the wing must be rolled due to the windows—hence the inclusion of a cylindrical roll bag for storage. The Dyneema leash with bungee and optional spinner with neoprene cover offer excellent user comfort during active tacking and transitions.

Performance Across Conditions

The Airush FreeWing Air 7m excels in light wind conditions thanks to its efficient structure and responsive feel. It rewards proper technique, helps you lift early onto foil, and offers extended depower for comfortable cruising and jumping. It luffs well on waves and gives a confident, windsurf-like feel during powered riding.

In Summary:

The Airush FreeWing is a robust, thoughtfully engineered wing that suits riders of all levels. Built from cross-disciplinary expertise and real-world testing, it’s your reliable companion for anything from chilled lake glides to high-adrenaline downwinders.
