INTRODUCING UCS

UNIVERSAL CONNECT SYSTEM

What is UCS?

UCS is an open, simplified foil connection system designed to be a standard shared by many foil brands.

Who is it for?

For everyone. From pro riders who wish to fine tune wing angles to every day foilers who just want parts to fit each other, a UCS foil “just works” right out of the box.

Strong and light for freestyle, streamlined and extremely stiff for racing, compatible with thick or thin wings, UCS also offers geometry options that work for all foiling disciplines, from wing to windsurf.

All in an elegant and simple-to-use system.

How do the wings connect?

Slide on the wings and tighten all the bolts that are conveniently placed on the same side. Both front and tail wings use the same connection, with large, flat mating surfaces that guarantee maximum strength and stiffness.

A thin carbon cover wraps around the top of the saddle to guarantee a smooth, streamlined nose no matter the front wing’s shape, size and thickness. No more steps or seamlines to disturb the flow of water.

How does the mast connect?

Two pairs of bolts placed side by side creates an innovative mast-fuselage connection that is simple, strong and incredibly stiff. A subtle mating V-shape keeps it all aligned under pressure.

For advanced riders who wish to fine tune wing angles:

hidden internal angle spacers and fuselage collars let you adjust wing angles and fuselage length

A UNVERSAL STANDARD

With more brands joining the Universal Connect System, UCS makes everything easy. Look for the ‘Works With UCS’ logo and feel confident the part will fit.
