Birdyfish S Review in Voile Magazine

In late March, the team was pleased to welcome marine journalist Paul Gury aboard the Birdyfish S, who came to conduct a comprehensive on-water test for Voile Magazine.

 

First test, first flights

After a brief reconnaissance on shore with our team, sailing journalist Paul Gury boarded our rib to see the Birdyfish S in the water and take some photos.

Then it was his turn to take the controls of the Birdyfish S, with guidance from the team as he made his first flights.

From the very first flights, our foiler’s unique characteristics became clear : a smooth takeoff in light winds and stable flight.

See if the Birdyfish S lives up to its promise

The goal of this test was clear : to evaluate the Birdyfish S’s claim that flight is accessible and stable for both solo and duo flights.

From the very beginning, the Birdyfish S was designed to be ergonomic, ensuring simplicity and enjoyment. It features launch wheels integrated into the hull, self-adjusting wide-span foils, a single sail, minimal adjustments, and a spacious cockpit.

All these features make the Birdyfish S the perfect flying companion for enthusiasts who want to enjoy flying solo or in duo.

One year after the Birdyfish S was added to the Birdyfish lineup, the publication of this review by Voile magazine serves as recognition of the work accomplished by the Birdyfish teams.
