GB700-FCM-377/BB - Blade 700-377 Blackbird Glider - Modular Backtail
Blade 700-377 Blackbird Glider - Modular Full Carbon Backtail
Hydrofoil Blackbird in full carbon per freerace e performance. This set includes the Blackbird front wing Blade 700, the FC/M full carbon modular fuselage, and the Blade stabilizer 377.
Speed. Efficiency. Total control.
The Blade is a high-performance front wing developed to deliver maximum freerace performance. Optimized for experienced riders, it combines an extremely thin profile with a high aspect ratio, ensuring progressive acceleration, clean glide, and responsiveness even at high speeds.
Suitable for kite foil, wing foil, surf foil, and downwind disciplines, the Blackbird Blade represents the natural evolution of the Blade line, with a design even more focused on speed and efficiency without compromising maneuvering precision.
Cross-discipline performance
The Blade offers a refined and balanced ride, ideal for those who seek a direct feel underfoot in powered conditions. Its geometry favors tight lines, fast carves, and excellent stability under load—while maintaining precise control even in technical transitions.
This set includes the Blackbird front wing Blade 700, the FC/M full carbon modular fuselage, and the Blade stabilizer 377, delivering maximum performance and control at high speed.
Blackbird Technology: Built to Perform
Hydrodynamic Efficiency and Drag Reduction The tapered shape and monoblock construction slice through water and air, improving flow and reducing turbulence. This makes transitions, touchdowns, and rail-to-rail maneuvers significantly smoother.
Active Lift and Trim Optimization The wing generates additional lift, enabling earlier take-offs and reducing pressure on the rear stabilizer. The result is a faster, more stable, and balanced ride, even at high speeds.
Extreme Structural Rigidity The fuselage design, inspired by aeronautics, increases torsional stiffness by over 20% compared to cylindrical fuselages. Load distribution is optimized to withstand even the hardest landings or the most aggressive maneuvers.
Full-Carbon Modular Fuselage:
Minimizes flex and torsion.
Allows for testing different stabilizers and perfecting the trim with shims.
Ensures smoother transitions.
