French manufacturer Tahé specialises in robust boards at affordable prices. In the past, we have already presented the inflatable Aria Air in a test introduced. The new Aria 5'8 AT model is now a fixed board, but it appeals to a similar target group - namely all wingsurfers who are looking for an affordable and robust board for a relaxed introduction to foiling.
Manufactured in the, according to the manufacturer, "durable, lightweight ACE-TEC construction, this board is built to last". The shape is said to be very stable when flying as well as when starting on the water, thus enabling an easy and smooth take-off. The rather stretched length (5'8'') should also guarantee that the board reaches the required take-off speed early on - even with sub-optimal pumping technique.

The Tahé Wingboard AT is available in one size - as a 5'8 with a volume of 110 litres. The board should also be of interest due to its low price - it only costs 999 euros.
