Porsche has made its debut in the foiling industry by partnering with Takuma
Porsche and Takuma team up
2021 was a record year for Takuma, bringing about many milestones and collaborations. One that truly stood out was our partnership with the elite sports car manufacturer Porsche.
Porsche is no stranger to high-profile collaborations in the world of watersports, so when they were looking to team up for the first time with a foiling company, it is no surprise they chose Takuma.
What binds Takuma X Porsche?
Connected by their brand values, both companies are committed to innovation, sophisticated design, and simplicity.
While Porsche never seizes to surprise the world with their astonishing car designs, the latest being the fully electric Taycan Cross Turismo, Takuma is blending its long history of kiting, SUP, and surf with the drive to turn flying above water into a unique experience for all its customers through efoiling.
Being a 100% foil-focused brand, Takuma is a passionate believer in the enormous growth potential of the foiling and efoiling industry. Our mission is to constantly look for new technologies and developments that will push the foil riding experience to the next level.
Seeing these two brands togetherbrings harmony. The Takuma X Porsche crossover combines the excitement and fun of experiencing the smoothest of rides, supported by the highest of technical specifications, truly showcasing the power of silence.
Takuma’s Tahitian team rider Matahi Drollet got the once in a lifetime opportunity to enjoy the sunrise in front of the Eiffel Tower while foiling on the deserted and glassy river Seine, a far cry from the warm turquoise backdrop he is used to.
“It was such an awesome experience to foil in Paris, something I would never have imagined myself ever doing.”
Matahi Drollet
Being the lead performer during this partnership, Matahi spent 2 weeks shooting in the French Pyrenees, Paris, and Corsica, 3 stunning destinations, all bringing something different and exciting to the collaboration.
This partnership has truly brought together two titans of their respective industries, who are dedicated to perfection and functionality.
