The Story Behind the RS in the New Takuma Wings

The Story Behind the RS in the New Takuma Wings

Takuma is one of the top performing watersport brands specializing in wing foiling and e-foiling. 

That’s why Takuma brought on a veteran designer, Robert Stroj, to create some of the world’s best wings and wing foil equipment. Stroj brings in many years of experience working for Fanatic and Neil Pryde before designing for Takuma. 

The “RS” in the name of the wing series stands for, Robert Stroj, and a few of his innovations include marrying the ergonomics of the traditional windsurf sail boom with the web handles of the wing. The result was a wing with carbon handles—“direct control bars.” These bars make for a more natural, ergonomic grip and allow for more precise handling. 

Besides using the most lightweight, durable, and innovative materials, Stroj added “power tip battens” on the compression side of the tips. This creates a stiffer wing and prevents the tips from buckling.

Mountains to Water is proud to offer Takuma products. It offers wing foil boards from both Takuma and Sailboards Maui. 

Mountains to Water is the Takuma Maui Wing Foil Maui dealers. It also sells inflatable surfboards.
