Description
The Naish Ultra Jet is a high-lift, low-aspect front wing built for getting airborne early in marginal conditions — ideal for lighter riders, SUP foiling, kite foiling in patchy breeze, or anyone learning to wing foil and wanting more time flying than swimming.
Built from 100% prepreg 3K carbon over a UD carbon and glass hybrid core, it covers wingfoiling, kitefoiling, windsurfing foil and SUP foiling in a single, versatile platform at a price that won't stop you buying the rest of your kit.
Who It's For
Riders who spend most of their sessions in 10–18 knots, or heavier riders who need extra lift at lower board speeds, will get the most from the Ultra Jet. Beginners benefit from its forgiving, progressive lift curve; more experienced foilers will appreciate how little effort it takes to pump back up through lulls. It works equally well as a dedicated light-wind weapon for freeride or waves.
Key Features
- Low aspect ratio (5.0–5.5 AR) — wide chord generates strong, early lift without requiring board speed to get up
- Progressive fore-and-aft lift curve — the wing rises gradually rather than snapping up, giving you more time to settle before height control matters
- Inherent horizontal stability — dampened roll response reduces tip-dips and sudden pitch events in choppy or gusty conditions
- Rounded winglets — smooth tip vortices reduce drag at low speed and improve turning feel through arcs
- 100% prepreg 3K carbon shell — resin-impregnated under controlled conditions for a void-free, consistent laminate that's stiffer and lighter than wet-lay equivalents
- UD carbon and glass hybrid core — adds controlled flex at the tips without torsional twist, giving a lively but planted feel
- Three sizes: 1450 / 1650 / 2000 cm² — covers light-wind freeride through to first-time foil sessions within a single compatible fuselage system
Real-World Feel
On the water the Ultra Jet is notably smooth — it rises progressively and sits at a stable height once airborne rather than hunting up and down. The wide chord generates meaningful lift at low speed, so you spend less energy pumping and more time riding. In bump-and-grind chop it handles better than the area suggests: the dampened roll response keeps the tips out of trouble through messy conditions. It's not a fast wing, and you'll trade top-end for that early take-off. In 10–12 knots on the Wirral, that trade is absolutely worth it.
Setup and Fit
The Ultra Jet connects via Naish's standard Legacy fuselage system and is compatible with all Naish foil masts — aluminium through to high-modulus carbon — in 60, 75 and 90 cm lengths. It pairs naturally with the Naish Jet stabilizer, which keeps the pitch balance dialled for the wing's large surface area. If you're mixing Naish generations, double-check your fuselage screw pattern before ordering — the team at Northern Watersports can confirm compatibility.
Materials and Construction
The wing shell is 100% prepreg 3K carbon woven cloth, bonded over a hybrid UD (unidirectional) carbon and glass foam core. Prepreg means the resin is already precisely impregnated into the cloth before lay-up — the result is a consistent, void-free laminate with better fibre-to-resin ratio than post-wet-lay production. The glass element in the core adds a small amount of controlled flex at the tips without introducing unwanted torsion through the main spar.
Size Guide
| Size (cm²) | Approx Span | Best For |
|---|---|---|
| 1450 | ~86 cm | Lighter riders (<75 kg), 14–18 kn wingfoil / kitefoil |
| 1650 | ~92 cm | Mid-weight riders, versatile 11–16 kn light-wind freeride |
| 2000 | ~100 cm | Heavier riders, SUP foil, sub-12 kn sessions, beginners |
If you're under 75 kg and riding in 14+ knots, the 1450 gives better agility and a snappier feel. Over 80 kg, or riding in lighter and patchier conditions? Go 1650 or 2000. If in doubt, size up — you can always downsize once your technique is solid and your board speed is consistent.
Pairs Well With
Works best with the Naish Jet stabilizer for balanced pitch feel. Browse the full wing foiling front wings range, pick up a foilboard, and check out wingfoiling accessories to complete your setup. The whole Naish foil system is designed to mix and match across mast lengths and fuselage sizes.
Why We Stock It
We're a rider-owned shop on the Wirral, and light wind is a reality here — sessions at West Kirby or Thurstaston don't always serve up 15 knots. The Ultra Jet is one of the few wings that makes a 10–12 knot window genuinely worthwhile, and we've seen it transform marginal days from frustrating into actual sessions. It's a wing we'd recommend to a mate, not just stock for the sake of the catalogue.
FAQs
What is the Naish Ultra Jet Front Wing best used for?
It's designed for high-lift, light-wind foiling across wingfoiling, kitefoiling, windsurfing foil and SUP foil. Its low aspect ratio and wide chord produce strong early lift, making it ideal for riders who want to fly in lighter conditions or who are building their technique and need a forgiving platform.
Is the Naish Ultra Jet good for beginners?
Yes — the gradual, progressive lift curve and inherent horizontal stability make it one of the more forgiving front wings in the Naish range. It won't punish small mistakes the way a high-aspect wing would. Pair it with the 2000 size for the most stable introduction to foiling.
What stabiliser does the Naish Ultra Jet pair with?
The Ultra Jet is designed to work with the Naish Jet stabilizer. The stab choice directly affects pitch balance, so using the recommended stabilizer is the quickest route to a well-tuned feel straight out of the box.
What masts are compatible with the Naish Ultra Jet Front Wing?
The Ultra Jet connects via Naish's Legacy connection system and is compatible with the full range of Naish masts — aluminium, standard carbon, and high-modulus carbon — in 60, 75 and 90 cm lengths. Contact us if you're unsure which mast suits your board and riding style.
How does the Naish Ultra Jet 2026 differ from earlier versions?
The 2026 Ultra Jet features a revised 3K prepreg carbon and UD carbon/glass hybrid construction for improved stiffness-to-weight. The three core sizes — 1450, 1650 and 2000 cm² — remain, with particular refinement to the lift curve for smoother, more progressive take-offs in light conditions.
Which Naish Ultra Jet size should I choose for wingfoiling?
For most adult wingfoilers: the 1650 is the versatile pick for 11–16 knots; the 2000 suits sub-12 knot conditions or heavier riders; the 1450 works well for lighter riders wanting more agility as their skills progress. Give us a call — we ride these wings and can give you a straight answer based on your weight, local conditions and experience level.
