Introducing the Pierra Manta: Revolutionary Pump Foil Wing Design

We talk about the Pierra Manta , a new pump foil wing developed by Alpine Foil. We share how we discovered pump foiling and became passionate about it, then explain how we used data loggers and AI analysis to design a wing that maximizes efficiency and minimizes energy loss. We discuss the development process, including multiple prototypes, and reveal that the final design is a revelation—allowing flight with minimal energy and lower pump frequency. The wing comes in three sizes (L, M, S) with a 1,755mm wingspan, is made in France using premium materials like Airbus-grade carbon, and boasts nearly 100% reliability. We also provide guidance on choosing the right size based on your goals and experience level.
