FLUSH CORDUROY DECK
FLUSH CORDUROY DECK
A flat corduroy EVA pad set flush to the deck — sure grip for the long sessions, easy underfoot, never harsh.
INSULATED BAG, INCLUDED
INSULATED BAG, INCLUDED
Every Glide ships in a padded, insulated bag — 10–12 mm of protection, a side pocket for your bolts and tool, sized for the boot or the boat.
MOULDED CARBON HANDLE
MOULDED CARBON HANDLE
No bolt-on plastic — a recess in continuous carbon, ramped to shed water cleanly, with the central lock seated inside.
SCULPTED GRAB RAILS
SCULPTED GRAB RAILS
Signature side channels that fall to hand — carry it under-arm, grab them mounting in the water, and reach the titanium bolts beneath.
SHARK-NOSE HULL
SHARK-NOSE HULL
A shark-inspired nose with a subtle V channels water for early lift and quick takeoffs — and settles the ride when it turns choppy.
TUNED ROCKER LINE
TUNED ROCKER LINE
A moderate entry easing into an optimised centre curve — the balance of glide and turn that holds across every condition.
Size & specification

Five volumes,
one weapon

Weight, discipline and skill give you a quick, honest match — usually a Performance board and a Light-wind board. Anything more nuanced — downwind, foil pairing, riding between sizes — let Viento decide. Every size shares the same all-carbon build and the same TravelFold™ system.

Note — length & width are the authoritative imperial figures (cm is a conversion). Weights are an average of 10 boards off the production line and can vary slightly. The picker mirrors the winging & parawinging tables in the knowledge base — Viento owns everything beyond weight × skill × discipline.

Gav — WAKA Glide review ★ Featured reviewIndependent Reviewer

“If you told me you could create a board that folds in half and still performs like a top-end weapon, I would have laughed you out of the room.”

Jonathon — WAKA Glide review

“Out in the waves it responded. You could pump it, you could ride waves. Tracked incredibly well. Super predictable.”
