Manta has what looks to be a very well built aluminum foil for 2018. Would love to hear foilers who have had success or no success with this 2018 foil. They are keeping this foil for at least 2 years...which is different from many other brands. They are priced well at $710 usd for there long fuseledge at 96cm and $695 for the standard 84cm fuse. They have a fairly large flange at the tuttle head, they actually sell it with a even larger flange available. The brand is formed by Renaud Barbier (former equipment manufacturer/design for Zeeko). The windsurfing magazine said that it is the only aluminum foil that doesn't "sing". Its walls of the mast look thincker then my pryde Alu and the mast looks more solid too especially because it does not tapper off at the stab. The wings are g10 like my pryde foil but they are wider in span at 76cm and higher aspect. Mast is 86cm (90cm with fuse on). There isn't a whole lot of stores selling it in North America but Aus and NZ have stores carrying these foils. I think most of there stuff is sold through there website. Like some other brands you can switch between different wings with one fuseledge weather for kite, surf or windfoiling.
