Cypher Surf / Downwind

SUP foilboards by Amos Shapes

Developed with team riders Dave West and Josh Ku, the Cypher SUP range reflects years of experience in surf and downwind design. Built with beginner-friendly stability and tuned performance, it brings balance, efficiency, and progression to SUP foiling.

Board design

A slim profile keeps your feet closer to the foil, while carefully distributed foam and a forward-placed foil box improve balance and responsiveness. Straight, parallel rails and a flat deck add stability for paddling and takeoffs, while the refined outline maintains agility once on foil. The Cypher’s design reflects the evolution of SUP foilboards - moving away from overly short or excessively wide shapes to create a balanced, efficient mid-length platform.

Surf / Wing SUP (7'0" & 7'4")

The shorter sizes prioritise quick wave entry and precise on-foil control. A compact outline and slimmer profile enhance agility in the pocket, while the forward foil box and balanced volume support efficient paddling and predictable takeoffs for surf and light-wind wing sessions.

Downwind SUP (7'8" to 8'10")

The longer sizes are tuned for offshore runs, focusing on stability, paddle efficiency, and straight-line speed. Parallel rails, a flat rocker line, and added tail surface area assist with balance and forward drive, making it easier to learn and progress in downwind conditions with confidence.
