Appletree Midlength V2

Full Efficiency for Early Flight – The Evolution Update

The Appletree Midlength V2 is the purposeful evolution of the original Skipper Midlength – built specifically for Parawing and light-wind Wing conditions. The goal: get on foil sooner, with less effort, with improved high-end performance. A narrower, longer outline combined with technical precision delivers effortless takeoffs, faster acceleration, and seamless touchdown recovery.

The V2 Evolution

• Narrower & Longer Outline: Width reduced by ~1″, bottom rail line pulled inward by 1″ per side – less surface area, less drag, cleaner rail release and faster acceleration.
• Continuous Rocker: Smoother, balanced curve with a less pronounced nose kick – promotes steady speed and a consistent platform for stance adjustments.
• Nose-Up Trim: Foil box repositioned toward the nose creates a natural nose-up trim. Combined with increased front-end volume, the nose stays high during starts.
• Seamless Touchdown Recovery: Refined, rounded V near the boxes blending into a subtle flat section. Sharper rail release reduces drag during touchdowns and pumping.
• Advanced Volume Distribution: Lower center of gravity, connected feel – volume redistributed toward the front for added stability during the launch.

Who Is It For?

• Parawing Riders: Once you've got the stash-and-fly workflow dialled, the Midlength V2 delivers instant acceleration from sitting to flying.
• Light-Wind Wingers: The narrow hull cuts drag so effectively that you can fly with a much smaller wing than expected.
• Downwind Riders: The longer, narrower shape generates board speed with minimal power input – especially in the larger sizes, a top pick for downwind foiling.

Choosing Your Size

• Smaller sizes (5'2″ – 5'4″): Maximum maneuverability and agility – for experienced Parawing riders.
• Mid sizes (5'7″ – 6'1″): Dynamic starts, responsive and agile – for intermediate to experienced Parawing and Wing riders.
• Larger sizes (6'5″ – 7'1″): Maximum efficiency in low-power conditions – for light-wind Wing, intermediate Parawing, and Downwind foiling.

Midlength V2 vs. Appleslice V4

While the Appleslice V4 remains the most versatile wing board in the Appletree range – with stable larger sizes for beginners and high-performance smaller sizes for advanced riders – the Midlength V2 is a more specialized tool. Built for maximum efficiency in Parawing and light-wind conditions: its longer, narrower outline ensures easier starts and faster acceleration.

Conclusion

The Appletree Midlength V2 isn't a board for everyone – it's the right board when you want to spend more time flying and less time getting there. Eight sizes, one goal: maximum efficiency.

50K Closed Cell Foam

Every board starts with Appletree's own 50K closed cell foam – developed exclusively for Appletree, used by no other manufacturer. Rated at 50,000 kg per square meter while remaining ultra-light and flexible. The closed-cell structure prevents water absorption and means the board won't blow out in the heat.

100 % Carbon Fiber – Vacuum Infusion

All Appletree foil boards are built in 100 % carbon fiber construction. An in-house vacuum technique layers all carbon and reinforcements dry, then extracts the air and injects epoxy resin under pressure – the tightest lamination possible, best fiber-to-resin ratio, and 100 % core bond with no delamination.

• FUTURES Oneshot Boxes: CNC-precision-cut, mounted in ultra-high-density PET honeycomb panel, carbon-sandwiched on both sides
• Heel pads under feet to prevent heel denting
• High-density insert blocks fused to core (cannot pull out)
• Coat 25 surface finish: replaces the hot coat, saves 8–10 % weight, improved scratch and abrasion resistance
• NFC tag near leash point for board registration
