Key Features

✅ Increased Central Draft Power
Efficient power between your hands makes getting on foil easier and more controlled. The wing locks into the forward section, delivering excellent drive upwind without feeling overly grunty.

✅ Premium Canopy Material
Built with Challenge Code Tec 95P (81 g/m²) fabric for exceptional shape retention under load, responsive crisp handling, and superior durability. Even after heavy use, the canopy maintains its original performance.

✅ Balanced Leading Edge Construction
The lighter 54 g/m² fabric on the colored leading edge allows the wing to “breathe,” giving you easier pumping onto foil and a more natural feel.

✅ Optimized Panel Orientation
Smart alignment of fibers and reinforcements at high-stress points ensures the V5 maintains its shape under heavy strain and resists long-term bagging.

✅ Boom-Only Control System
SMIK has committed fully to the boom, offering total freedom of hand placement, improved strut stiffness, and unmatched control. Handles are no longer needed.

✅ Refined Handling & Surf Performance
From locked-in power to seamless depower transitions with no flutter, the V5 feels stable and predictable. When flagged out, it drifts neutrally with minimal resistance, making it the ultimate surf wing
