The Ikaros S1 is the highest-performing CHS wing ever created: full Aluula frame, differentiated canopy, single carbon bar and an ultra-light build. Developed through elite testing in Sardinia and La Palme, it delivers unmatched stability, precision and speed — proven by a world-record performance of 33.6 kts.
The CHS Challenger Ikaros S1 represents a new benchmark in high-performance wing design. Developed by CHS sail designer Claudio Badiali, it was engineered with the same philosophy and technical ambition that define CHS windsurf sails on the PWA World Tour: precision craftsmanship, advanced materials and race-proven aerodynamic efficiency.
To achieve this, the Ikaros S1 features:
a full Aluula Leading Edge and bladder for maximum rigidity and ultra-light weight
a differentiated-fabric canopy for ideal tension and durability
a single carbon bar for direct, responsive handling
flat valves, optimized weight distribution and a fully padded wing bag
a refined new shape born from over a year of prototyping
Every detail was tuned through intensive testing with elite riders in Porto Pollo (Sardinia) and La Palme (France) — including feedback from the “Prince,” Andrea Baldini, and top speed athletes. Riders immediately praised its stability, maneuverability, gybe control and exceptional acceleration.
The Ikaros S1 made its official debut at the
2025 Prince of Speed ISWC World Championships in La Palme,
and the results spoke for themselves:
Audrey Marie Agnes, riding a pre-series Ikaros S1, achieved:
Top speed: 33.6 kts
World Record 500 m: 30.99 kts
World Record Nautical Mile: 29.40 kts
(records pending WSSRC ratification)
A stunning validation of over a year of design, testing and refinement.
The Ikaros S1 delivers:
ultra-light handling
exceptional stability in high-speed runs
effortless power delivery
precise control in gybes
unmatched top-end velocity
It is a wing built for riders who demand excellence — and for those chasing pure performance on the water.
The Ikaros S1 isn’t just a new wing.
It’s the arrival of a world-class speed machine, handcrafted in Italy and already etched into the record books.
