Reedin ElCapitano - Foil Komplett Set

ELCAPITANO

The ElCapitano Wing Series is a new line of hydrofoils designed to redefine your riding
experience, optimized for speed, glide, predictability, and effortless wingtip breaching.

Drawing inspiration from the success of the mid aspect ratio Flight Attendant wings, the
ElCapitano wings integrate some of its most impactful design elements into a higher
aspect ratio lineup.

Crafted for both intermediate and advanced riders, the ElCapitano series embodies high
performance and shredability. Whether you are shattering speed records on the 575,
connecting more waves on the 995, or gliding effortlessly while downwinding on the 1395,
ElCapitano wings are for you.

The outline shape and wing twist maximize lift in the center of the wing, gaining efficiency
from its tapered lift distribution. This delivers an exceptional lift-to-drag ratio each wing
size. These key features, coupled with the new section profile, also allow the wings to
operate at a wide range of speeds and maintain a low stalling speed.

This gives the higher aspect wings the best speed and glide for the surface area, but also,
with the reduced wingtip loading, allow the wingtips to cut through the water surface
without ventilating the rest of the wing. As aggressive wing-out turns are an exhilarating
part of any foiler's progression and predictability in these critical turns is paramount, we
focused strongly on key design features to ensure the best and smoothest wing-out turns.
Many of these elements have been inspired from the Flight Attendant's success and
optimized into a higher aspect ratio design:

A custom designed section:
The new section is precision designed to disperse pressure along both upper and lower
surfaces of the wing, eliminating the concentration of suction pathways that can disrupt
lift.

The curved up wingtips:
When a wingtip encounters the water surface, the angle at which they meet is critical to
the likelihood/severity of ventilation. Curved up wingtips facilitate a steeper wing-surface
angle upon contact with the water, significantly reducing the risk of ventilation – whether
you're pushing the limits or inadvertently breaching a wingtip.
Each characteristic has been carefully harmonized to create a high-performance wing that
thrives on pushing boundaries while maintaining a smooth, predictable feel.
