RRD K – Rapida Carbon Wingsurf board
Fantastic deal…….Only £319 (RRP £1559) for an amazing, high spec carbon construction wing foil board
80% off!!!
We have used it with 1800 F One Gravity Foil and it’s very easy to use with good stability and early planning.
The K – Rapida is a tough, well built wingsurfing board and is really great fun on the water. With the huge discount, we don’t think there is another board anywhere near this price range on the market that will bring you as much tech and spec
The K – Rapida can be used as a Wingsurfing Hydrofoil Board with the foil track mount (additional option). As well as being able to fit tuttle fins (not included) which can be very useful to give additional grip and resistance against the wind, when learning without the hydrofoil. It can also be used for kitesurifng in this configuration. The effective and easy fitting carbon hydrofoil mount is manufactured by FoilMount and takes 2 minutes to fit. If you’d like us to fit it for you, please let us know or leave a note at the checkout. Otherwise if you prefer to do it yourself, we can mark on the board where we suggest fitting the mount.
Wingsurfing Board Shape
The flatter tail and mid board rocker lines with scooped nose, plus hydrodynamic base shape give early and efficient planning for an easy take-off. The nose Rocker helps while riding through chop and is extremely beneficial on tough downs as well as when riding in waves
The wide tail outline gives an optimised volume distribution and combined with the wingers assure perfect angle when heading upwind and quick release. Thinner rails in the mid-rear section provide accurate control and comfort. The flat, wide rear half of the board gives it excellent stability when standing or riding at low speeds.
It features a special hydrodynamic shape which allows it to run at incredible speeds with a very clean and fast glide. Whilst being very steady, keeping the rider comfortably in control. The straightened outline, using a wider nose and special shaped tail profile, assures exceptional upwind tracking. While the scoop nose rocker line improves planing performance and prevents the nose from catching when the rider tackles heavier chop.
You will be up and flying in no time and you won’t be unsettled when occasionally touching the water.
Hydrofoil mounting system
The RRD Rapida boards have had a twin track foil mount system fitted to the bottom of the board. Allowing it to connect with most foils on the market using the standard 4×4-bolt plate system (160mm x 90mm).
Technology:
Custom Carbon
Exclusive Custom made full PVC core sandwich laminated with Biaxial Carbon fibers on deck and bottom. Wood/Carbon deck standing area.
The carbon construction provides excellent strength and durability as well as super light weight. Making it feel great on the water as well as being easy to carry, even with a hydrofoil on the base.
Carbon fibres are highly resistant and really light. The FULL CARBON construction creates a strong, durable, light shell for the entire board (deck and bottom)
An extra layer of Carbon is located in the standing areas to make the deck even more resistant to local hell pressures and dings. This results into light, strong and responsive boards to enjoy session after session.
Twin Tracks
The twin track system with lateral spacing of 90mm is becoming an industry standard.
This system is compatible with all foils featuring a top plate with 4 fastening bolts. The length of the tracks enables some room to adjust the position of the foil on the board to reach everyone’s preferred balance.

The K – Rapida has also been used for windsurf foiling, take a look at the video here (on a very lightwind day!) Windsurfing Foiling on the K Rapida
The deck has been recessed by 5 mm on a wide area underneath the front foot in order to add an EVA shock absorbing foam layer. This foam layer absorbs all impacts and makes the board even more durable.
