iQFOiL JUNIOR EQUIPMENT
iQFOiL Junior: the sailing platform that offers young sailors the most affordable path from Junior to Olympic gold. In the highest performing, most exciting package. The iQFOiL Junior package includes a Starboard iQFOiL 85 Starlite Carbon board (same board as the youth), the Severne FGO rig in 5.0,6.0,7.0 with the GO Boom 170-220 and the iQFOiL Aluminium foil by Starboard Foils.
Apart from being great for racing, this equipment is also ideal for the first steps of planing, gybing, and going upwind/downwind on the fin.
For the 2020 season, clinics and demo events were organised in conjunction with the official iQFOiL championships as well as special dedicated events all around the world. Senior/Youth/Junior sailors and Coaches took part, demoed the equipment and learned the basics of foiling.
The iQFOiL Youth & Junior Class application has been approved by World Sailing. Official World and Continental Championships had been run in 2021. An overwhelming attendance of 245 competitors from 24 Countries were at the first ever iQFOiL Worlds in Lake Garda.

SEVERNE FGO – iQFOiL JUNIOR
OLYMPIC RACING
The lightweight FGO 5m2, 6m2 and 7m2 sails with strong reinforcements in vital areas, cover a wide weight range, wind range and comes from Severne Sails’ world-leading development program.
The FGO offers huge trimming range, excellent cam rotation and reinforcements in vital stress areas.
The FGO works great on foil and fin.
The lightweight RDM Blue mast has a 90% carbon content for extra durability and optimum reflex.
The boom is a V grip design aluminium monocoque design – perfect for smaller hands. 40% stiffer than a traditional round aluminium boom and with unmatched durability.
The U17 division can use the 5.0, 6.0 or 7.0 (up to two sizes) so depending on your weight and skill you will be able to choose the right sail size for you.

TECHNOLOGY
SEAMLESS HEAD PANEL
This high abrasion area is made from only 1 panel and does not carry any exposed seams, preventing any potential weak point in this area. As a result, seam creep and seam-related failure have been eliminated.
DIRECT DRIVE TENTIONERS
The DDT 4 and DDT 5 tensioners directly connect the tube batten to the leech of the sail. This new design eliminates the heavy section of tube that is needed for the standard batten tensioner and being smaller, has superior aerodynamics. It is used on all lower tension battens in the OVERDRIVE M2 and the MACH 2.
OPTIMIZED AERODYNAMICS
By aligning the battens with the direction of airflow drag has been reduced. Clean panels with minimal seams further improve the aerodynamics.
HIGH PERFORMANCE MONOFILM
Custom high end monofilm construction to maximise performance and minimize weight. Construction mimics the exact sail prototypes that were tested by our racers.
BOOM HEIGHT REFERENCE
Boom height gauge for ease of reference.
CAM AREA REINFORCEMENT
Area around all of the cams have extra reinforcement for mast sleeve protection.
OPTIONAL CLEW POSITIONS
POSITION 1:
Use this position for the lighter wind days. This clew position gives you more power and upwind angle.
POSITION 2:
This setting allows the sail to open up and breathe more. It gives you more speed and more control.
EASY FIX REMOVABLE OUTHAUL HOOK
The HGO carries the removable outhaul hook in the top position. This can easily be moved to the lower clew using the SEVERNE HEX-4 batten tensioner.
THERMOFORMED TACK FAIRING
Protects your board from impact and neatly covers the foot detailing. It incorporates the rope stash pocket for easy storage of your downhaul rope.
MOLDED SOFT EDGE
With recessed grooving, covering any vulnerable stitching the moulded soft edge encloses the hard edge long the foot of the sail and protects the stitching from wear along the board non-skid.
3&4 ROLLER TACK PULLEY
Roller tack pulleys are matched to the sails downhaul requirements and aligned for friction free downhauling and threading ease. Rig your sails with the Severne Hardware Division extensions for function and simplicity.
SEAMLESS FOOT CONSTRUCTION
A single panel in the foot area with hidden load patches and zero exposed stitching eliminates seam abrasion and seam creep in this high load area. Maximum durability and minimum weight.
SEAM PROTECTION PANELS
Panels reinforced with kevlar strips protect the foot area seems from abrasion from the board when the sail is in the water or when launching.

SEVERNE RDM BLUE MAST
SEVERNE GO BOOM 170-220
SEVERNE BASE
SEVERNE TRIPLE XTENSION
The Severne Apex mast comes with SlipLok technology. Alternating texture patterns in the boom area increases friction for less slippage. This eliminates the need to overtighten the boom, decreasing stresses on the mast.
Using the Severne boom with the Lockjaw front end, you only need to apply minimum force for it to sit perfectly on the mast without sliding.
You should not apply more than 10-15kg of pressure on the end of the lever for it to close. This can be done with two fingers.
DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN!
Overtightening the boom head can cause damage to your mast.
iQFOiL JUNIOR BOARD
STARBOARD iQFOiL 85
Starlite Carbon construction
Dimensions: 210x85cm. 153 liters
The new 85cm wide iQFOiL board, is the one-design board for Junior U17 and Youth U19. One board for all generations of Youth & Junior windsurfers.
Smaller and more controllable for younger sailors. This new size shares the same racing genes as the iQFOiL 95.
Additional footstrap positions and reduced rail cutaway sizes improve performance in fin mode.
The iQFOiL 85 is constructed in Starboard’s new Starlite Carbon technology for the highest performance at a lower price point.
Drake 56 fin included.

iQFOiL JUNIOR FOIL
STARBOARD FOILS iQFOiL ALUMINUM
Components: 800 front wing | 255 tail wing with -2 degree | 115 Plus fuselage | 95cm iQFOiL mast
Back to back 2017/2018 World Champion and Vice World Champion, making it the most successful racing foil in windsurfing to date: Starboard’s Race foil started the iQFOiL project and it is the foil that made foiling in the Olympics a possibility. Its innovative racing geometry was the breakthrough that enabled foiling to cover Windsurfing Olympics’ wind range and performance requirements.
Starboard Aluminium masts use proprietary and patent-pending triple I-beam cross-section with a unique profile that pushes more material to the perimeter than any other known masts, providing unprecedented stiffness and performance.
It comes with the 115cm Plus fuselage for upwind downwind racing, as well as, higher winds and racing formats with more reaching. The Plus fuselages have an adjustable tail wing angle that allows the rider to increase control in high winds or increase power in light winds.

Front Wing: 800 | Front Wing: Saddle system |
Tail Wing: 255 -2° | Tail Wing: Adjustable saddle system |
Fuselage: 115 Plus | Fuselage: Starboard Universal Connect |

THE iQFOiL 95 ALUMINUM MAST
Starboard Aluminium masts use proprietary and patent-pending triple I-beam cross-section with a unique profile that pushes more material to the perimeter than any other known masts, providing unprecedented stiffness and performance.
TAIL WING ADJUSTMENT
iQFOiL sets are supplied with seven angle spacers (-2° / -1.5° / -1° / -0.5° / 0° / +0.5° +1°) and with a new 255 tail wing that has -2° built in.
The recommended tail wing angle on the 115 Plus is -2, so we recommend starting with the 0° spacer. You can reduce the tail wing angle for more speed and control, or increase for more power.
FUSELAGE
115+ fuselage
The iQFOiL sets are supplied with both the 115 Plus fuselage. The 115 Plus covers upwind/downwind, but also reaching courses, and long distance marathons.
ALSO INCLUDED
Other items included in the set: 800 Front Wing, 255 -2° Tail Wing and the Team Bag Size L.
Environmental Initiatives Associated with iQFOiL Equipment
The Carbon Footprint of a full, Senior iQFOiL setup is 721.31 kg CO2e. For each set sold we plant 22 mangroves with Worldview International Foundation in Myanmar. Over the next 25 years, CO2 sequestered by these trees will offset emissions 10 times over.
Starboard's Plastic Offset Program also collects 11.4kg of plastic from the shorelines of Thailand & Myanmar for every board sold. This is the weight of a senior iQFOiL board in beach and ocean plastic.
