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.

Will it Float? A Beginner's Perspective on Wing Foil Board Size

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.

3 Things to Consider When Buying a Wing Foiling Hand Wing

Detailed Package Overview

Wing Board Model and Specs

Naish GS or CU Wing Board

naish-s27-hover-wing-gs-s26-hover-wing-carbon-ultra-cu-le.jpg

The GS is the ideal package board. It's stable, efficient, and provides ample progression well into the intermediate level and beyond. Compared to the slightly lighter-weight Ultra, the GS features a wider outline and more volume in the nose to make a wider sweet spot for your balance. This also makes it easier to ride in underpowered conditions. We also love the GS for its incredible durability and low maintenance.  
 
More experienced riders may prefer the Ultra Carbon construction for its reduced swing weight and surfier nose design. Beginners enjoy this model as well but we'd suggest sizing up 5-10L from the GS due to that narrower, thinner nose for an easier learning curve.

Features

GLASS/WOOD CNC EPS CORE CONSTRUCTION

  • CNC cut EPS core
  • High density deck-to-bottom foil track system with carbon reinforcement
  • Full glass wood sandwich deck and bottom construction

EVA DECK

  • Micro dot embossed EVA deck
  • Dual layer foot strap area support

FOOTSTRAP INSERT LAYOUT

  • Layout allows for dual strap setup (back strap straight - front strap angled for goofy or regular stance)
  • Windsurf style 3 strap setup
  • Front: parallel double strap setup

Foil Model and Specs

2022 Cabrinha Fusion Foil

Includes:

  • X-Series Front Wing
  • Rear Stabilizer 300
  • Fusion Alloy Mast 90cm
  • Fusion Hybrid Rear Fuselage 346
  • Fusion Hybrid Scoket Plate Mount
  • Fusion Torx Multi Tool

The Cabrinha Fusion foils are a quality, high performance option for progressing riders. The modular system offers anything a beginner to professional rider could ask with mast sizes, carbon parts, fuselage sizes, as well as multiple wing shapes and sizes. The monocoque front wing and fuselage are a one piece carbon fiber part for the best response and lightweight performance. The fusion design is a surfy medium aspect with a thin foil section which provides progression and exciting performance as you progress.

For beginner winging packages, we suggest the following sizes…

  • <145lbs - 1300
  • 140-175lbs - 1600
  • >170lbs - 1950
