WINGSURF
Wingsurfing is the sport of riding a foil board - or a standard SUP - while carrying a hand-held inflatable sail or 'Wing'. While variations on the 'Wing' have been around for years, the innovation in light wind foilboarding has drawn the old designs out of the closet. Dusted off and polished up these new wings are super fun and easy to use.
First off they are ultralight wings that work on high pressure air chambers to make and hold their shape. These are not pool toys. With stiff leading edges and surprisingly rigid performance a small light wing can generate quite a bit of power. When they are not inflated they are smaller than your average backpack. They pump up quickly and unlike the fixed mast Windsurfer are intuitive and easy to use.
