FOR DEEP WATER EXPLORATION
Developed by John and Nathan Florence to feed the soul of downwind exploration. The Florence Collection by Lift enables surfers to remove themselves from crowded surf lineups and take flight in previously unexplored deep waters.
FLORENCE 130X
The 130 Florence X builds upon the DNA of the fabled 120 High Aspect and 150 High Aspect X. Tuned to perform as John and Nathan’s downwind daily driver, this wing has the top and low end needed to enjoy downwind runs in all conditions with speed and style. While this wing is geared for downwind performance, it works incredibly well for winging and foiling in small surf. Allowing endless glide and the ability to easily connect waves. The high modulus construction provides unmatched stiffness and responsiveness. Simply put, this is one of the best wings we’ve ever built.
Vs. 120 High Aspect
The 130 Florence X has increased efficiency and glide due to the higher aspect ratio. The wider wingspan sacrifices a slight amount of roll in the turns vs. the 120 High Aspect.
Vs. 150 High Aspect
The 130 Florence X provides higher average speeds and more aggressive turning characteristics while still providing the excellent range the 150 High Aspect X is known for.
FLORENCE 110X
The Florence 110 X is based on the DNA of the thoroughbred 110 High Aspect X, but with a side of user friendliness rarely seen in wings of this size and aspect ratio. The increased camber enhances the low-end use-ability while the high modulus carbon construction gives you precision control. Don’t let the increased low-end fool you, this wing can still win any downwind race on the planet.
Vs. 110 High Aspect X
The 110 Florence X provides improved low-end performance and a more rigid frame. Compared to the 110 High Aspect X, a small amount of top-end speed is sacrificed.
Vs. 120 High Aspect
The 110 Florence X has increased efficiency and glide due to the higher aspect ratio. However, the wider wingspan sacrifices a slight amount of roll in the turns compared to the 120 High Aspect.
Aspect Ratio: 13.1 / Surface Area: 110in² (710 cm²) / Wingspan: 38in (96.5cm)
FLORENCE 21X
The Florence 21 X mixes traits from the 25Glide, 20Carve, and 21Flow all in the name of making an ultra high performance downwind tail. The result is a tail that Nathan describes as “being covered in dish soap, the glide is psycho”. The medium length fuselage provides just enough stability, while the low angle of incidence provides limitless glide to connect bumps.
Vs. 20 Carve
The Florence 21 X has a longer fuselage and lower angle of incidence. Result = More glide and stability at the sacrifice of more drawn out turns.
Vs. 25 Glide
The Florence 21 X has a similar length fuselage but higher angle of incidence and smaller surface area wing. Result = More front foot pressure and similar glide.
Vs. 21 Flow
The Florence 21 X has a shorter fuselage and lower angle of incidence. Result = More glide and tighter turns at the sacrifice of stability.
