The MAKO CARVE PRO is an evolution of the MAKO CARVE V2, designed to go even further in terms of fineness, glide, and overall efficiency.
A total of 18 prototypes were required to develop these 3 new MAKO CARVE PRO sizes. By significantly refining the profiles, the goal was to find the perfect balance between lift, longitudinal balance, and surf-glide feel.
With less chord at the center and a significantly increased overall fineness, this evolution gives the MAKO CARVE PRO better glide and superior glide & pumping efficiency compared to the V2, while retaining support at low speed, and doing so with less surface area.
Pitch (longitudinal) stability has also been improved, allowing higher speeds to be reached while maintaining control in powerful waves.
Maneuverability remains at the heart of the design for this new MAKO CARVE PRO range: the two smaller sizes (XS and S) are radical and retain a low aspect ratio for maximum maneuverability.
New: the M size is actually a hybrid between the Mako Carve and the Mako Glide for riders looking for a compromise between these two models. It combines the ease of a Mako Glide with excellent maneuverability for a versatile setup, suitable for all front wing sizes and all disciplines. It is a relevant choice for small to medium condition surf foil, parawing, and freeride wingfoil.
The MAKO CARVE PRO is therefore available in 3 sizes :
The equivalent of the XS, in terms of lift and maneuverability, is the Mako Carve V2 – 130.
The equivalent of the S, in terms of lift and maneuverability, is the Mako Carve V2 – 140.
UHM CARBON construction
The construction has also evolved, with a stabilizer molded in Ultra High Modulus (UHM) carbon. This layup provides excellent stiffness despite a very slim profile, and delivers a refined, controlled riding feel. with no stalls related to stabilizer flex. You can push on it!
This construction, specific to our new 2026 stabilizers, offers one of the highest stiffness-to-fineness ratios on the market
New feature – 2026 stabilizer range
The 2026 stabilizers integrate a small ramp at the front of the stabilizer, directly molded in, intended for bottom mount setups (under the fuselage).
This detail improves water flow at the stabilizer entry, limits high-speed disturbances, and further optimizes glide.
This evolution is specific to bottom mount setups.
IMPORTANT: The Mako Glide & Carve PRO have countersinks for the screws on one side only. It’s up to you to choose the mounting orientation you prefer: BOTTOM MOUNT or TOP MOUNT.
