Ultimate expression of speed, control, and freedom

Designed in collaboration with Balz Müller, the Balz Pro line is the pinnacle of front wing performance—pure energy transformed into precision and power. Each size has been fine-tuned for freestyle, wave, and speed riding, offering explosive response and unmatched maneuverability.

Signature Performance by Balz Müller

It’s not just a front wing; it’s an extension of the rider’s intent. We took the best profiles on the market and pushed them further:

  • Early take-off even with smaller surface areas.

  • Higher top speeds and increased glide.

  • Tighter, more fluid carving.

  • Immediate reactivity and enhanced sensitivity.

Every size has been tested and pushed to the limit by Balz himself. The result? A wing that responds exactly how and when you want it to.

The Set: This kit includes the Blackbird 965 front wing, the FC/M full carbon modular fuselage, and the Flat 425 stabilizer. Engineered for early take-off, high speed, and millimetric control, it ensures maximum power and stability for wing foiling in medium-to-strong conditions.

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.

Who it’s made for

  • Ambitious and technical riders

  • Freestylers looking for pop and control

  • Downwind and wave riders seeking speed and flow

    Anyone who wants a front wing that rides like a natural extension of their body
