The stock Axis setup with no shim is designed to work for the vast majority of riders. By popular demand here is a shim kit for those who want to experiment with different setups. 6 Shims are included, 3 Positive (+0.25, + 0.5, +1.0) and 3 x negative (-0.25, - 0.5, -1.0), these can be stacked to achieve a variety of angles.
Adding a Positive shim (Axis call it positive because it is increasing the angle between front and back wing, usually achieved by lifting the back of rear wing) is useful for heavier riders to provide more front foot pressure, can have a slowing effect.
Adding a Negative shim (Axis call it negative because it is decreasing the angle between front and back wing, usually achieved by lifting the front of rear wing) is useful for lighter riders as it reduces the front foot pressure and can be faster.
Remember: USE 25mm M6 Bolts to secure rear wing when using shims
Affectionately named the 'dogleg' by the test team, the PRO – Ultra High Modulus Carbon is quite a departure from the industry's more conventional masts. Building on the impressive performance and stiffness of Axis' existing Carbon mast program, the PRO – Ultra High Modulus Carbon boasts an unbelievable 55% increase in stiffness and incredible torsional rigidity as compared to their industry-standard 19mm Alloy mast. (By comparison, the Power Carbon and Power Carbon High Modulus are 25% and 35% stiffer respectively)
Not just stiffer, but thinner and narrower, with a 12.5mm reduction in chord in the bottom half of the mast (compared to power carbon masts), and a 1.5mm reduction in thickness (13.5mm thickness in the bottom section of the mast where it counts). Another factor that sets this mast apart from the rest, is its radical new and unconventional foil section. It's quite a departure from conventional foil sections that have a tendency to become 'locked In' as speed increases. The exclusive PRO Mast foil section has its widest point moved back on the mast, allowing freer turning at any speed. The modelling predicted 20% less drag, but didn't prepare Axis for its slippery willingness to go fast and turn like nothing they've experienced.
As the name implies the PRO – Ultra High Modulus Carbon is constructed from military grade ultra-high modulus materials, which, while they raise the cost of production, do provide the ultimate ride. The PRO – Ultra High Modulus Carbon ships in a custom high-quality protective mast bag and is completely compatible with all Axis products. Available in 3 sizes, 800mm (31.49"), 900mm (35.43"), 1050mm (41.33"). Matching the PRO – Ultra High Modulus Carbon with any of your existing AXIS foils will elevate your foiling experience to the next level.
Inspired by Hawaiian-style downwind boards, the AXIS Downwind boards are narrow, sleek designs that feature proven rocker lines. Prominent chines allow the tail to sink easily and work in combination with the straight elongated outline to keep the board tracking in a straight line. This makes paddling up onto foil far easier in any water state.
The AXIS Downwind carbon foilboards are specifically designed for dedicated downwind enthusiasts. With their easier paddling experience, they are perfect for overcoming the biggest challenge of downwinding: getting up on the foil. The long skinny design provides a distinct advantage - if you ever touch down, getting back up is a breeze thanks to the reduced drag resistance of the narrow outline. And the take off is unparalleled due to the shape and rocket design.
Constructed with EPS core, full carbon and a tough PVC sandwich layer on the EVA deck area only, these boards are built to be light for optimised performance.
A super high-density foam block encases the mast tracks and is sandwiched between the EVA deck area and bottom laminate.
Finished in AXIS signature red, highly visible for ultimate safety.

The AXIS Froth is the perfect balance between performance, early lift and ease of ride – a stable platform that packs plenty of volume into a short length to reduce swing weight and increase your fun while SUP or wingfoiling.
With Axis' newest Froth they've made some important design changes – reflecting the movement towards higher aspect, lower drag foil designs that require more speed to lift-off.
Axis have eliminated the angled chisel on the tail. This increases the length of the planing surface to add sub-foiling speed potential. They also reduced the rail bevel – in fact it now fades out completely before the tail adding more width to the planing surface and straightening the water flow for even faster acceleration up to foiling speed.
Also noticeable is the pulled in nose with rounded outline, to reduce the chances of catching in rougher water, compared to the more square nose from 2021. Axis have increased the thickness and volume up here too, to maintain a balance in buoyancy that will give you stability when on your knees or stepping up to get going.
A new deck concave gives your feet and toes improved leverage when initiating turns, while feeling safe and secure in a straight line when riding without straps. Axis' unique tail pad design ensures any water captured in the concave, flows freely out the back.
Fast high-performance wings, that offer a new level of performance potential for riders to exploit. While they deliver amazing performance characteristics, they are relatively easy for competent riders to excel on.
Each member of the ARTPRO Range is a wing in its own right, not simply scaled versions of its closest sibling, all the wings share the following:
An extended elliptical outline, with the tips removed.
A straight median line for better turning and control.
Imagine a dedicated surf foiling wing, that lets you foil waves like a surfer would. If you’re anything like us, you’ve been dreaming of an effortless turning wing, that inspires confidence when dropping in, that has a gentle, predictable easy lift up onto foil. A foil that not only handles breaches but encourages them. No wave is the same, sometimes you need a turn of speed, and on another you need to slow right down but stay on foil. A wing you can just forget about and get on with the business of enjoying yourself. Of course, that wing has to be capable of pumping you back out to do it all again and again.
The wait is over, meet the AXIS Spitfire. You’ll recognise it by its distinctive elliptical outline, straight median line and lack of aggressive turndown through the tips. Moderate chord lengths, that taper smoothly from the centre to the tips, encourage smooth, predictable but precise turning. Reduced foil thickness for enhanced top end to complement the greater chords providing easy low end. Many of these attributes are shared by the ARTPRO Range of wings, and in fact much of what Axis learned in the development of that line fed into the Spitfire’s make-up.
Through the development process, Axis put the Spitfire through its paces. The smaller sizes are fast with explosive turning. The larger sizes are great for smaller spots and larger riders. The Spitfires are versatile front wings, able to ride waves or flat water across prone, SUP, winging, wake, downwind, lake and kite foiling disciplines. They do it all. Spitfire foils are ideally matched with Axis's Advance fuselage and Progressive or Skinny rear wing ranges.
If you're into pushing the envelope in Prone, SUP, Wake, Wing or Pump, these will blow your mind. Are you looking to push harder, carve tighter turns and want an even more connected feeling on the larger PNG and BSC front wings? Our new Red Advance fuselage is for you.
In three different sizes you get tons of options to fine tune your setup. This design sees the mast position moved 40mm closer to the front foil, opening up entirely new options for performance.
The regular Red fuselages are perfectly suited to the majority of riders across all disciplines. By no means are these new Red Advance fuselage intended to replace them. They just provide options for performance and a ore connected feel when pushing the limits.
As the mast position on the Red Advance Fuselage is moved closer to the front wing, the effective length of the fuselage behind the mast is now slightly increased (by 40mm).
If you're into pushing the envelope in Prone, SUP or Wake these will blow your mind. Are you looking to push harder, carve tighter turns and want an even more connected surf experience? Our newBlack Advance+ fuselageconfiguration is for you. This design sees the mast position advanced 60mm closer to the front foil, opening up entirely new options for surf performance. Our Current Black fuselagerange is perfectly suited to the majority of riders across all disciplines, these newBlack Advance+ fuselageare not intended to replace them but provide options for performance and a more connected feel when pushing the limits.
A consideration when moving the mast position on the fuselage forward is that the effective length of the rear fuselage back to the rear stabilising foil is increased by the distance the mast moves forward. For this reason we are introducing a new fuselage size the ‘Sillyshort’.
When choosing yourAdvance Black Fuselage, it’s advisable to take this into consideration and perhaps opt for a length shorter than you are used to using. If you’re currently using anUltrashort, you might consider theCrazyshortinstead. Available inUltrashort,Crazyshortand an all newSillyshort(just 560mm).
Compatible withART ,HPS & Spitfirewings, but also suitable for the smaller sizes in ourPNGandBSCwings.
Compared to our current Black fuselagerange, these 3 new little siblings provide a looser, smoother transition from side-to-side. The sensation our testers liken it to is similar to the sensation of moving fins forward in the tracks on a surfboard, initiating turns becomes easier, which is great in the surf. There is a small trade-off, this ease of turning comes as at the expense of some tracking stability. (So expect to have a very small effect on upwind ability when winging and a need to adjust pumping technique slightly).
These newBlack Advance fuselagesare the first of our fuselage lineup to ship with our new custom fuselage protective covers.
Axis Carbon High modulus mast is 35% stiffer than their alloy mast. The new High Modulus Carbon fibre used in this mast layup is considerably stiffer and stronger than the regular carbon fibre used in conventional constructions. Innovative, considered and balanced placement of materials in our proprietary production process paired with rigorous testing has delivered a breathtaking performance leap.
Ride characteristics are so game-changing, that it’s been a struggle to get our team riders to return the prototypes after testing!
Feedback featured claims like ‘a way more positive and connected feel’, ‘immediate feedback’ and ‘ultimate control’.
As the name suggests, our new SES complete package is super easy to get started on, at an attractive price point.
The SES range, while unique, is still modular and completely compatible with the rest of the AXIS red fuselage range of products. This ensures a clear progression route as riders’ skills improve.
Built around the AXIS industry-leading 19mm Alloy mast system, our Super Easy Start package features our latest 19mm base plate, an all-newly developed, moderate length, SES fuselage (725mm), which is perfect for beginner and intermediate foilers. This new fuselage integrates our ‘doodad’ system into the fuselage, enhancing our famed AXIS system rigidity while reducing components and simplifying assembly.
Our AXIS Super Easy Start foils are built using a proprietary new technique that features a Paulownia wood core and hybrid glass construction. These ship with custom-fit protective covers.
Drawing on the proven performance and easy turning of our BSC range, the SES has a slightly reduced aspect ratio for an even easier and smoother lift. The SES wings have rounded tips for safety and ease of use.
Choosing the perfect foil is also Super Easy.
The AXIS SES package comes in 2 sizes:
SES 1040 - Best suited to riders 80kg (175lbs) and over, or any rider in areas where light winds or small surf prevail.
SES 940 - Best suited to riders less the 80kg (175lbs), or heavier riders in areas where medium/high winds or larger surf prevail.
Both systems employ the new SES 450/80 rear stabilizer wing, designed specifically for stability, control and easy turning.
The Super Easy Start packages ship packed in a convenient padded carton box containing everything you need to assemble and ride. The AXIS SES setup is particularly suited to wing foiling but also great for Wake, SUP / Prone surfing and Pumping / Dock starting.
The Axis Surf Foil front and rear carbon wings are available individually to create a quiver of your foil options. Price is for 1 wing only.
HPS Wings
The High Performance Speed (HPS) wings are FAST. Designed for the ultimate in performance, but yet still usable by most levels of riders. Since the HPS wings use their own foil section with less camper and narrower chord, we developed a special fuselage that will accommodate all the HPS and future performance front wings.
The HPS wings are the ideal performance wings for WINGING and DOWNWIND. High level riders they also SUP, PRONE, WAKE and WINDSURF foil the bigger sizes, while the smaller sizes are perfect for TOW, freestyle WINGING and KITE foiling.
This is a new generation of front wings made for FAST performance riding, while it's still stable and predictable with enormous amount of glide and great turning.
Pump and Glide Wings
The AXIS PNG wings are designed to be easy and early to lift for their size.
They have tons of control, and feel comfortable for most levels of riding. Our Glide wings pump unreal, and glide effortlessly and endlessly. And they are fastwings, but their focus is not to be the fastest wing on the market. But instead, to be the easiest high aspect wing that almost everyone can ride, and can improve their level of riding right away.
Surf Performance wings
The Surf Performance (SP) wings were introduced in 2020 and have been the favorites among wave riders who are looking for smooth, side to side loose turning.
BSC Wings
The Broad Spectrum Carve (BSC) wings are a new direction into easy to ride wings, with good amount of performance embedded to the design. Perfect for all round riding including entry level riders.
The larger sizes are ideal for PUMPING, SUP, WINGING, WAKE. As we go down on sizing, 890-810-740 are high performance PRONE, WINGING and KITE wings.
The AXIS 8' Coiled Waist Leash is a super comfortable leash which keeps excess length from dangling behind your board and foil. It will also stay out of the way of your legs and ankles allowing you to move more freely.
Axis Foil top mount. You need this to attach your Axis foil to a board. 3 styles available, a Plate mount that uses 2 long boxes mounted in your board, a Surf Tuttle box and a Windsurf tuttle box. When in doubt just contact us for advice. The Tuttle mounts for windsurf and surf differ slightly in the spacing of the 2 bolt holes
Axis foil masts. Individual alloy masts of various lengths to suit Axis Foils.
Designed for the AXIS S-Series and K-Series Foils the AXIS masts are stiff, strong, and ready for any use and conditions. We designed our masts for 2019 to give our foilersa very direct feeling to their foil which is critical for foiling. We even sourced our own high quality aluminium and bought tons of it, to ensure we only have the highest quality raw materials for our foils. Our K/Series masts are 224% stiffer than the 15mm thick masts (most other foils on the market). It's even stiffer than any carbon mast on the market today. This gives you more control and fast input from your feet to the front wing.
Composite structure, thinner at the bottom thicker at the top for chord progression. Snappier feel in carbon verses aluminium.
The AXIS Red Standard Fuselage is compatible with all but the HPS, ART, and the smaller BSC and PNG wings.
Black Fuselage:
Higher performance foil sections with lower camber, different profile, and narrower chord, have resulted to thinner wings, where the connection to the fuselage is smaller. The Black fuselage accommodates the HPS and ART wings, as well as the smaller BSC and PNG wings, giving the right connection and rigidity to these faster foil sections. The length of the Black fuselage is modified to position the front wings to the perfect spot for each size fuselage. Only compatible with the certain front wings.
K-Series Fuselage:
The AXIS K-Series (Kite Series) Fuselage is a fuselage designed for Kite specific front wings 600mm and smaller only.
