Spark VS Infinite : Which Phantom foils matches your ride?
At Phantom Foiling, performance is at the heart of everything we do. After years of innovation and world titles, our two flagship slalom foil ranges : INFINITE LTD & SPARK R now offer two distinct approaches to modern windfoiling.
Both are fast. Both are race-proven. But they’re built for different goals.
In this guide, we break down the key differences to help you understand which foil best fits your riding style, speed objectives, and conditions.
If you're looking to upgrade, switch, or simply understand how each range performs, you're in the right place.
INFINITE
A true game changer in windfoiling
The Infinite LTD redefined what high-performance windfoiling could be. With its groundbreaking combination of ultra-smooth glide, unshakable stability, and precision tuning, it became a benchmark in slalom and speed racing.
Winner of the 2023 World Speed Title, the Défi Wind, and PWA Fuerteventura, the Infinite proved its potential in the most demanding environments, clocking in at 41.91 knots under Nico Goyard.
For riders chasing top-end performance, personal records, and full-speed efficiency, the Infinite is a weapon of choice. But make no mistake, it rewards precision and finesse. It’s a foil that demands commitment but delivers unmatched results.
→ A true racing machine : built for expert control, endless glide, and record-breaking speed.
SPARK R TITANIUM
The evolution of a revolution
The Spark R is the next chapter in Phantom’s race DNA : the natural evolution of the Infinite, refined for the demands of modern slalom racing and next-generation performance.
It takes everything that made the Infinite legendary : speed, glide, responsivenes… and amplifies it with more control, better average speed, and a significantly wider wind range.
This is the magic of the Spark: it’s faster, but also easier to ride. You can now push to Vmax while staying fully in control. Jibes feel tighter. Acceleration hits harder. And the foil remains stable, confident, and smooth — even in gusts and chop.
Fully optimized for today’s formats, the Spark is equipped with a new high-modulus prepreg carbon mast for increased stiffness and more direct feedback, especially in high-speed, high-load situations.
- New titanium fuselages reduce drag while improving reactivity.
- And updated rear stabilizers bring a level of forgiveness and accessibility that changes the game, bringing added forgiveness, making the setup more tolerant and efficient overall.
Despite its premium build and engineering, the Spark R remains surprisingly accessible. Whether you’re stepping up from freerace, or upgrading from the Infinite, it offers a perfect balance of innovation, usability, and raw performance.
→ Serious performance, surprisingly easy !
