2026 Afs V3 Blackbird 8'4 Advanced

This is not just another down wind board, Do you research before making some ridiculous offer that I will ignore. This board cost me over $4.2k to bring into OZ, hand crafted straight out of France. Its still in as new condition and rail taped. Postage at buyers cost and organising https://afs-foiling.com/product/blackbird-v3 For reference I'm an older specimen varying between 97-100kgs. Have no issue with stability on the 8'4 x 19 115l, I have demoed nearly every highly regarded board out there and none come close to this black bird in performance or construction. This took me from frustrated paddler about to throw in the towel to frothing grom levels. Only selling due to fully committed to other discipline now. This board will suit someone serious about going the next level and actually giving themselves the best chance possible. Get your practice and technique in over winter ready to start killing it from the start of the season in 4 or 5 months. Some of the info from site: The AFS Blackbird 8'4 Advanced is a high-aspect downwind SUP foil board engineered for unmatched glide, ultra-early take-off, and exceptional speed. Designed for riders seeking precision and control, this board features a full carbon sandwich construction (PVC Sandwich Carbon) that ensures a stiff, lightweight, and responsive ride while minimizing drag. Key performance features include a recessed deck that lowers the center of gravity for optimal foil control, a bulb nose for aerodynamic efficiency and stable front-foot support, and a T-Tail combined with a pin tail to focus release and reduce drag. The advanced hull shape offers forgiveness on touchdowns with a smooth rebound, making it ideal for long-distance down winding, light-wind wing foiling, and SUP surf foiling.
