Naish Hover Chimera – Foilboard

Developed in collaboration with Austin Kalama and Koa Fabio. the Naish Hover Chimera is the perfect surf foil board for experienced riders looking for the versatility and performance of an all-round board. Whether surf-. tow- or wing-foiling – the Chimera series fulfills all facets of foiling.

The Chimera was born from the rocker lines of the Hover Surf Ascend and its new shapes set standards that exceed surf foiling expectations. Constructed with a biaxial carbon/glass sandwich. it offers superior strength and prevents dents or cracks on hard landings. while being lighter than ever before.

The narrow outline combined with a low volume significantly improves maneuverability and optimized maneuverability on the waves. The raised waterline profile and the special bottom shape offer more momentum on take-off and faster acceleration from the water surface.

The beveled rails allow for quick touchdowns and a super sharp tail release for maximum efficiency on the rise. allowing the rider to use about 10 liters less volume than their usual board.

The modified volume distribution improves the balance of the board and ensures easy handling. The deck well with a slight W concave and an EVA pad provides ultimate paddle comfort and ergonomic foot placement. giving you excellent control and keeping you securely in place without straps.
