Description
North Sonar High Speed Series Stabilizer
Flat, loose and fast. A higher aspect ratio and flatter rondure wing for more experienced riders.
Pair with the HA and smaller MAv2 Series.
As North has increased their front wing range, they’ve needed to match the lift force of the front wing with the stabilizer. While your front wing creates vertical lift, your stabilizer has a downward acting force, which prevents the front wing from nose-diving. A larger stabilizer translates into more front foot pressure, while a smaller stabilizer equals less front foot pressure.
The North stabs are mounted on top of the fuselage, which helps them to avoid turbulence from the flow of the front wing, creating a smoother ride. This top mounting also gives the rider an early breach warning - the stab pierces the water surface first, giving you a better chance of recovery before your front wing gets too high.
Like the Front Wings, all Sonar Stabilizers are pre-preg carbon construction, ensuring optimal stiffness and direct performance. The thin profile section reduces drag, while the material properties help maintain structural integrity and rigidity.
Stabs have a huge influence on performance. As you progress to smaller wing sizes, we recommend changing to a smaller stabilizer to be more manoeuvrable. Experienced riders will really feel the difference. A new tail can have a big impact on your style.
Sonar S178:
- High speed upgrade to the Sonar Foil System for experienced riders
- Recommendation: pair with Front Wing HA950, or smaller
-
higher aspect ratio than the S208 (less drag) and flatter rondure (more maneuverability)
Sonar S208:
- High speed upgrade to the Sonar Foil System for experienced riders
- Higher aspect ratio than the S210 (less drag) and flatter rondure (more maneuverability)
Sonar S238:
- The S238 Stabilizer is a high-performance upgrade to the Sonar Foil System for experienced riders
- Higher aspect ratio than S270 (less drag) and flatter rondure (more maneuverability)
- designed to match the new MA1200/MA1500 and larger HA front wings, giving your setup a faster and more responsive feel
Sonar 158v2:
- The S158v2 is recommended for lighter riders pushing high speeds with small, fast front wings (HA550-750, MA500v2-850v2)
- Its foil sections are tuned for efficiency in the mid to high-speed range, while the dihedral rondure (front view) provides a more locked-in feel, which can boost confidence when powered up and pushing high speeds and upwind angles.
- The pre-preg High modules carbon construction ensures optimal stiffness and direct performance.
- Thin profile sections reduce drag, while the material properties help maintain structural integrity and rigidity
