Ullman Hyper Glide 1600  

 

Instruction Manual Q1 2020 
 

Thank you for purchasing one of our hydrofoils. We hope that you will enjoy 
the  thrill  of  flight  above  water.  Please  read  this  instruction  manual  to 

familiarise yourself with the hydrofoil, its use, and safety aspects. 
 

Safety First: 
 

•  Hydrofoiling  is  a  water  sport  and,

  as  such,  poses  some  risks.  We 

recommend that you wear a suitable helmet, an impact vest 

with adequate floatation for your body weight, and a full-length 
wetsuit at all times when hydrofoiling.  

 

• Ensure that the water

 depth is more than enough for the foil length you 

are using. An 80cm mast foil requires at least 1.5m of water depth. 
 

• Any collision (that is, with

 an object or person) is extremely dangerous 

as you are likely to hit the obstacle or the 
bottom  below  you  head-first.  A  collision 

may also damage the foil and this is 

not

 

covered by the warranty. 

 
Never foil on your own. 

 

 Stay well clear of other water users. 

  Always  use  a  suitable  leash  to  tether 

your board to yourself.

Assembly: 

 
Please be careful not to cross-thread or overtighten screws. Always insert 
screws by hand and ensure you can turn them by hand before using the 

Allen key tools to tighten them further. 
 

• The hy

drofoil consist of various parts that need to be assembled correctly. 

See Image 2 to familiarise yourself with the components and names. 

 

• Start by sliding the

 fuselage into the front (blunt side) of the mast with 

the 6mm screw holes facing away from the mast. Slide the fuselage until 
the  large  holes  on  the  side  of  the  mast  line  up  with  large  hole  of  the 

fuselage. Insert the mating screw set and fasten with the 5mm Allen key.
