Discipline: All Around - Surf / Freestyle / Race
New for 2023, the Glide AA is our first all ALUULA composite wing and the launch pad for new ALUULA technologies: Aeris and Aeris X airframe and canopy materials.
86gsm Aeris X delivers outstanding stiffness to the center of the leading edge and strut tube, while 74gsm Aeris provides the desired wing tip reflex.
Light, stiff and durable, 46gsm Aeris X canopy extends the upper and lower wind range of each size, while taking canopy tear resistance to a new level.
The combination of these technological upgrades results in a wing that is exceptionally stable, lightweight and user-friendly. This advanced wing allows you to concentrate on your riding experience without being hindered by any drawbacks typically associated with traditional wings.
The Glide AA is compatible with all Ocean Rodeo Matrix wing handles and comes with the new Quick Click Wing Leash - a self aligning connector pin makes clicking in and out a one-handed operation.
Recycle-ready - The ALUULA Aeris and Aeris X materials used for the airframe and canopy in the Glide AA-Series are recyclable at the end of their useful life.
INTRODUCING THE AA-SERIES GLIDE
THE NEXT GENERATION OF WINGFOILING IS HERE.
Lighter. Stronger. Recycle-ready.
Discover the unparalleled potential of the new AA-Series Glide.
As a result of our collaborative R&D efforts alongside ALUULA Composites, and working with the most cutting-edge lightweight materials ever produced, we can now reveal the world’s first full ALUULA wing: Ready to redefine the limits and the future of wingfoiling.
Featuring the latest ultra-light, ultra-strong, tear-resistant and industry-first recycle-ready ALUULA composite technologies, the new AA-Series Glide pushes the boundaries of what’s possible far beyond current confines.
Harnessing the exceptional stiffness of ALUULA Aeris X in the leading edge and strut tube, combined with the wing tip reflex provided by ALUULA Aeris, the AA-Series Glide achieves aerodynamic perfection.
The extreme low weight of the airframe, reinforced with durability and stiffness by the new ALUULA Aeris X canopy, effortlessly expands the upper and lower wind range for each size, as well as providing unparalleled canopy tear resistance.
The result is immediate pumping response and power that will get you up on foil with smaller sized wings and keep you powered up, while the low swing weight enhances flag out wave riding. With the 5m size weighing only 3.65lbs / 1.65kg , the new Glide yet again sets new standards in the world of wingfoiling.
Additionally, the ALUULA Aeris and Aeris X airframe and canopy materials are revolutionarily eco-conscious. At the end of their useful life, these materials are fully recycle-ready – a remarkable ‘industry first’ that Ocean Rodeo is very proud to initiate.
“The introduction of the Glide AA-Series wing and new ALUULA materials has once again raised the bar for windsport performance enhancements, while simultaneously introducing a much-needed greener trajectory for the future with industry first recycle-ready materials.”
– Ocean Rodeo Head of Design, Ross Harrington
