Who is it for?

What does it do?
Hover Hybrids offer unmatched versatility in an affordable package.
Why is it unique?
These boards are unique because there’s nothing else like it on the market.
What’s new?
Completely new design that does it all!
Hover Hybrid 3'8" is ideal for riders up to 180 lbs/81 kg.
Hover Hybrid 4'0" is ideal for riders up to 210 lbs/95 kg.
The deck and rails feature a soft, comfortable EVA padding while the durable composite bottoms are fitted with Naish’s dual track (box) foil mounting system, which enables riders to tune foil positioning to their personal preference. Hover Hybrids offer plenty of riding flexibility; ride them like a bodyboard and catch waves, or tow behind a boat. Ready for a lift? Mount Naish’s Thrust Surf Foil and take-off hydrofoiling whether laying down prone, kneeling or standing. This multi-use platform creates the ultimate multi-purpose experience whether in surf or on a boat wake.
The 22-inch wide platform and wide tail make it easy to catch waves on this super stable board. This also makes hydrofoiling accessible to less experienced and heavier riders, so everyone can experience the thrill of flying above the water. The compact shape is a great benefit to beginners and creates an excellent platform for advanced foilers to wake-foil, catch small waves and pump effortlessly. Smaller riders up to 180 lbs. are well-suited for the 3’8”, while the 4’0” allows even the really “big boys” to get out and foil.
