2025 Naish Hover Chimera – Prone, Wing, Foil Board

Developed alongside Austin Kalama and Koa Fabio as the go-to surf foil board for experienced riders who desire the versatility and power-performance features of a singular board to cover all facets of foiling; surf, tow and wing foiling. Born from the rockerlines of the Hover Surf Ascend, the NEW Chimera Range shapes have been evolved to know no limits, transcending expectations of what�s possible on a foil in the surf. Constructed with a UD carbon / UD glass sandwich, superior strength is a fundamental feature in maintaining key structural aspects of the board, preventing denting or cracking on hard landings, whilst preserving a lighter overall weight than ever before. The narrow outline paired with its low-volume composition dramatically enhances the boards maneuverability and optimized turning capability on waves. The increased waterline and bottom shaping offers heightened momentum during take-offs and faster acceleration from the water�s surface. The doubled rail grants speedy touchdowns and a super sharp tail release for maximum efficiency during flight. The modified volume distribution elevates the board’s balance profile, granting ease of operation, while the deck recess; a scooped out, slight W concave and EVA pad combination offers ultimate paddle comfort and ergonomic foot placement with great push ability, keeping you locked in place. A new era� Chase the feeling with the Chimera range; purpose fused with passion.
