Axis Art V2 Front Wing
3 years is a lifetime when it comes to foiling. And that’s how long it took us to come up with the worthy successor of the original ART; the foil that made history, with its different appearance and groundbreaking performance.
The AXIS ART v2 is a brand-new foil series that sits between the AXIS Spitfire and ART PRO wing ranges, offering the perfect blend of the Spitfire’s powerful smooth carving, and the ART PRO’s low-drag glide and speed. The ART v2 is a High Aspect wing sporting an Aspect Ratio of ~10 across the series, fitting perfectly between the Spitfire(average 7.5 AR) and the ART PRO (12+ AR). And as any v2 should, it just does everything much better!
Wingers, whether you are free riding, wave riding or just chasing the ultimate in efficient cruising, you will love the speed, balance, stability, turning and carving of the ART v2 in all wind and water conditions. And if you are into freestyling, the ART v2 is reinforced with Ultra High Modulus carbon for extra rigidity and strength.
Sharing the Spitfire’s multitalented DNA, the ART v2 is also the wing that will give wing foilers the confidence to use it in other foiling disciplines such as prone, downwind, SUP, FoilDrive (FD), windsurf, wake or kite. It’s a front wing that excels at winging, and also holds its own in every other foiling discipline.
The AXIS ART V2 1099 strikes a fantastic balance between performance and ease of use. It’s a great choice for foilers looking for a pump-friendly, stable ride that still offers sharp turning and responsive handling. Whether you’re riding small bumps or working on your pumping technique, the 1099 delivers without demanding too much finesse, making it accessible for intermediate to advanced riders. The ART v2 1099 is the answer for easy-to-use light winds winging, and small bumps SUP / DW / Parawing / Foil Drive and Prone. And if you are into wake foiling, it will give you great control roaming from the front to the back wake.
Comments from a team rider:
“The ART v2 is the style of wing that I was looking for. Recently in Chicama, the Spitfire was best roll and carving for me but the waves were so long that the ART v2 had a little less roll but better glide, making the ideal foil for most days."
AXIS ART v2 is available in the following wingspan lengths:
1099 mm (area 1220cm2), AR 10.08
999 mm (area 1038cm2), AR 9.90
939 mm (area 900cm2), AR 10.0
879 mm (area 790cm2), AR 9.98
819 mm (area 647cm2), AR 9.98
Notes from our design team:
The AXIS ART v2 is a foil that retains great glide and pump due to its span (like an ART PRO), while the reduced area in the tips allows us to retain the looser predictable turning characteristics of a much smaller wing. (similar to the Spitfire)
We achieved that by using a very tapered outline, we reduced the second moment of area for roll, and worked to achieve a perfectly elliptical span-wise lift distribution.
We have strategically reinforced the ART v2 with military-grade Ultra High Modulus carbon in addition to our existing layups creating a stronger connection between the wing and the fuselage, which provides quicker response, better performance and additional strength.
The ART v2 comes with a unique waterproof X-Ply / Mylar material bag with reinforcements, to keep your foil well-protected from impact, and elements.
ART v2 is optimized for the Black Advance+ fuselage range and is ideally paired with either the Skinny or smaller Progressive rear wing ranges.
