Unifoil wavefoil jump

Perfection from the start

Unifoil has its roots in surf foiling and is known worldwide for pioneering innovations - the very first High-Aspect Foil was designed by Unifoil founder and CTO Clifford Coetzer. This concept has sold more than any other on the market and revolutionized foil design in boardsports.

All foil shapes are meticulously developed and tested before they hit the market. To match the high-performance design, Unifoil uses only high-end materials - from full carbon to titanium inserts and screws. The product range includes high-end hydrofoils for wing, prone, downwind, SUP and wake foiling.

Many of the world's best foilers from Hawaii, USA, Australia, South Africa and Europe rely on Unifoil under the board.
