Let us introduce to you the Appletree Zapple, a fully Foil Drive compatible board! The board was designed together with the Foil Drive team to make sure the board fits the Foil Drive seamlessly to minimise water turbulence. Its recessed layout reduces drag and keeps the battery weight closer to your feet, giving you greater control during tight turns and high-speed runs.
Key Features + Benefits
Drag Reduction: The sleek design minimises surface area, significantly cutting down drag for a smoother, more efficient ride.
Enhanced Control: By positioning the battery closer to your feet, the added weight feels almost unnoticeable. Providing better balance and making turns more intuitive. No more struggling with the weight of the battery pulling outwards when doing turns.
Effortless Surface Skipping: When motoring back to the lineup, the board can skim across the water without the battery box causing drag. Allowing for smoother rides and higher prop placement on the mast.
Improved Foiling Dynamics: The reduced likelihood of the prop hitting the water improves flow during non-motorised foiling, giving you the best chance at smooth glides and long rides.
Extended Battery Life: Less drag means better efficiency, so you can foil longer on a single charge—more time on the water, less time recharging.
