| Sizing Chart for Wing Packages (winds 15 knots and up) | |||||
| Board | |||||
| Easiest progression | Your weight in KG +40 = Liters | Ex. 95kg + 40 = 135L | |||
| Keep it for the long haul | Your weight in KG +10 = Liters | Ex. 95kg +10 = 105L | |||
| Foil | |||||
| Beginners | Weight in lbs, add a 0 = cmsq | Ex. 200lbs = 2000 cmsq | |||
| Experienced foilers | Weight in lbs, add a 0, subtract 300 | Ex. (200lbs x 10) - 300 = 1700 cmsq | |||
| Wing | |||||
| Beginners go BIG! | <120lbs = 4m | 120-160lbs = 5m | 160-190lbs = 6m | 190-210lbs = 7m | >210lbs = 8m |
What board size is right for you?
One question on every new winger’s mind is how many liters do I need in my wing board? Will it float me? Can I get away with a smaller size? Can I get one board to learn on that is small enough that I will never want to upgrade? The below chart provides a general framework for sizing your board based on weight and experience.

What Size Wing Foil Board is Right For You?
Which foil is right for you?
The Neil Pryde HP foils offer excellent performance for winging, surf, wake, and kite foiling. The higher aspect wing redesign gives more speed range, glide, and pump-ability that beginners as well as pro level riders appreciate. Compared to other foils in the market, the HP foils are incredibly stiff, predictable, and durable. This is especially important for new riders and wingers for ease of use and torsion resistance. Experienced riders will appreciate their speed range and intuitive nature for maximum confidence in pushing their limits.
For beginner winging packages, we suggest the following sizes…
- 110-145lbs - HP15
- 140-180lbs - HP17
- 170-210lbs - HP19
- >200lbs - HP23
Which wing size is right for you?
As a general rule, a rider under 150 pounds should start with a wing around 4 square meters. For riders over that weight, a 5 meter wing will be a better place to start. This is very much an average - if you're riding in lighter winds or want more power, you'll want to go with a larger wing. If you're a light weight rider or winging in high winds, you'll want to go with something smaller.
If this is your second wing and you are looking for consistent, high performance across the whole wind range, it's smart to separate your wings by 1M increments for most models. That will ensure you are going to have a wing that is properly powered no matter what the wind is reading.
Perhaps you are looking to make each wing maximize its wind range, then a 2m gap works well until you get below 4m. At that point, you'll want to go to 1m gaps due to the exponential power of wind at higher speeds. Using this method, you'll have times where you are overpowered or underpowered at times depending on the range of wind and the sail you chose but it will help you maximize your range using fewer wings.
