    Lots of negative comments, yet most brands are sold out or back ordered. Pretty psyched to add this dimension to my quiver, not replace my quiver with this dimension. A nice safe, rigging-free alternative for a quick solo foil session when kiting isn't ideal...like on a lake with no beach.

      Luis Escobar I was fortunate enough the get my hands on the SPG double strut 4m. It is incredibly strong and feather light, highly recommend.

    A pro like Kevin makes everything look easy. I wonder how easy it would be for an average guy who just tried it for the first time on a SUP board? Would you need a need a dagger board of some kind to go upwind?

    • @ВалерийЧекалов-б7ъ
      @ВалерийЧекалов-б7ъ 5 років тому +2

      Mike Skor 4 sq meters of this wing is nothing for daggerboard. To accelerate daggerboard of let say 3.50 meters length you need a sail not less than 6 square meters and harness and lines to hold it. Take a sail of 4 sq meters and try to sail on daggerboard- you’ll get nothing

    • @whatsupbudbud

      A lot of wingsurfers recommend starting winging on a SUP. My local surfshop recommended trying the foil board in a wake park first (as it's a smaller volume, so harder but more fun after initial learning curve). With the SUP you're going downwind fast and won't get back as there is no counter tension in the water. I'm going to try the wing on a beach, maybe on a skateboard and go the wake park route with the lower volume foil probably. Hard to order these as they're sold out everywhere I live. Oh yeah, I saw a video of winging with a small surfboard but the fellow said it was rather tough as compared to foil.

    • @flyfoil8648
      @flyfoil8648 5 років тому +4

      You would be surprised. On a foilboard, the drag is very low and the wing supplies lift, so there is not too much load on the arms, you can ride much longer than you might think. Easily winging for over an hour (so far).

    I saw these a few weeks back in an email from MAC Kiteboarding and started looking into it.They look like fun. There are quite a few videos out about them. I used to windsurf long ago and want to get into kiteboarding when my shoulder heals (recent surgery) and these look like a good time. Saw a video with Robby Naish talking about his and demonstrating it. Pretty cool

    I can't wait to do a sixty foot air over one of these things on my kitesurfer! It will increase the speed of SUPs and keep them upwind so you get to jump over them more often. Plus they will all have newly purchased pumps at the beach for when mine breaks!

    Wingsurfing has been around for decades. The latest "trend" is just an opportunity from top manufacturers to suck even more cash from the community. Nowadays everything is about advertising, promotions, marketing, sponsorship,sales,social medias bullshits and recognition. Greed is killing the original spirit of the sport. Yes indeed,Robby is "addicted..." to money....(snark).

    it´s clearly tricky to get water started from it. I imagine the only cool situation would be riding it with a foilboard, but, once you get the minimum of wind to do so, a conventional combination of foilboard and kitefoil or tubefoil would be much more fun. So, by now, I can see no advantage.
