The TWIST is great for all riders who love the loose feeling of riding a strapless long board. Discoverers appreciate the high stability and control. The board is very easy to get started even in choppy waters and it keeps a straight line while accelerating. Straps can be mounted according to own preferences. The double channel bottom shape ensures an easy transmission from gliding to flying.

Ideal foil (move it to the very front for max. lift)
- ENSIS FLOW 1500 for wing foiling
- ENSIS PACER 2000 for light wind/heavier rider and for SUP foiling

Windsurf foil performance
The TWIST is perfectly balanced to use as a windsurf foil board. You’ll love the stability and control while accelerating, flying and jibing.
- Rigg position: Further back than when windsurfing with a fin.
- Foil position: Position the foil at the very back - Footstrap position: The back foot should be slightly in front of the mast of the foil. Too much lift: move back. Not enough lift: move forward. Test until you’re comfortable.

Ideal foil: ENSIS FLOW 1500 (fuselage 90cm)

Windsurf performance
This family friendly concept board with a thruster fin set up is great for all windsurfing levels. For cruising on flat water or riding small waves. Mount the US fin box covers to make the board faster. Choose the most forward position for your rigg and move it step by step further back to find your ideal set up. If your kid wants to become a windsurfer: this is the moment to share your TWIST. Move the two side fins from the tail to the center position (center fin set up) and choose a small sail.

Ideal sail sizes: up to 6.5m2

SUP wave and flat water performance
The very compact shape with the fast rocker line and the thruster fin set up make the TWIST an ideal SUP wave board. Mount the US fin box covers before hitting the water. Once in the waves you feel the advantages of the concave outline: your bottom turns and cut backs haven’t been easier.

For flat water performance use the center fin set up. The double channel and the concave outline transform the TWIST into a perfect cruise SUP.

Performance Features

Ultimate stability in the water: The engineered wide nose and tail give you the important stability to get started or to wait for wind even in the choppiest water. The perfectly distributed volume supports you in your balance.

Early planning: The wide tail allows you to step into the back strap before you start and stays nicely balanced in the water.

Easy jibing: While jibing and carving the ultra thin back rails grab deep into the water and guide you smoothly through choppy waters.            

Quick takeoff after touchdown: Using the TWIST with a foil, the bevelled rails ensure a quick takeoff after a touchdown.

Wave riding and foiling performance: The particular rocker concept allows the TWIST to be used as a foil board as well as a wave riding board.

Foiling performance: The channel rocker is a very flat and fast rocker. The rocker enables the perfect angle from the foil to the board.

Wave riding performance: The bottom shape combined with the concave outline gives the board its wave riding characteristics. Once you tilt the TWIST it will carve like a wave board and leave a deep track in the wave.

Planing speed and agility: The tail shape is for plenty of planing speed yet reactive in short, tight turns.

Control and high maneuverability:  Once you accelerate, the concave outline and the compact shape keep the board going in the desired direction. The concave deck shape gives you all the control you need.

More Features

Comfortable pad with tail kicker: The grooved diamond deck pad with tail kicker gives you a perfect grip and control.

Convenient carrying:  The ergonomic handle on the top of the board ensures a convenient carrying to the beach. With and without foil.

Windsurfing option:  Choose the most forward position for your rigg and move it step by step back to find your ideal set up. For windsurf foiling start the initial rigg position in the middle of the mast track.

Foil position options:  Wing and SUP foiling: Choose the most forward position and move it step by step back to find your ideal set up. Windsurf foiling: Position the foil all the way back.

Thruster fin setup:  This set up is ideal for windsurfing and SUP wave riding.

Center fin setup:  This set up is ideal for kids learning how to windsurf and for anyone cruising on flat water using the TWIST as a SUP.

ENSIS Custom Carbon Sandwich Construction
The ENSIS custom carbon sandwich construction is the best technology on offer, combining the highest build quality and best possible performance. Due to the custom construction the board feels very light when in the air and the swing weight is reduced to a minimum. This makes the board more accessible for everybody who chooses the best option for his/her ride. For expert riders spins and jumps will be easier than ever, taking you to the next level. Reinforcements in the stance area give the board a crisp feeling – all steering impulses are directly transmitted to the carbon reinforced foil box and give you a very direct control over the foil.
