Wing Foil Beginner

Suri

Hi Craig, I come from Wind-Foiling (Flow 1000 and Foilstyler) and want to switch to Wing-Foiling. Weight 83 Kg, Size 185cm

I have a Carbon Mast 90cm. Shall I switch to a 86 at the Beginning?

Can I directly go to a 66 Fuselage?

What Frontwing do you suggest for Learning on Lake Garda at the Beginning?

Which Wing, Slick 6.0?

Hi Suri, if you can ride a foilstyler, then you will adapt very quickly to the smaller Wingfoiling gear. So keep your 90cm mast, go for the 66 Fuselage. I would actually try with the 1000 Flow first, in case it is too small, then a Free 1250 should be big enough, I don't think you will need bigger as you can already foil?

Wing for Garda/your weight - afternoon Ora 5.5 to 6.0. Morning sessions Vento, 4.0.....?

Hi Craig, thanks for your tips. But some question I already have.

I come from windsurfing and that's why I thought Slick is the best joice for me.
But if I look on the water, most of the guys have a Unit.

What's your opinion regarding Unit and Slick?

What is the difference beween Slick and Slick SLS?

For the Slick SLS just the Platinum SLS Miniboom is compatible?

Suri Hi Suri, Unit has more power, better in the waves, easier to fold, lighter when no wind. Slick is easier for windsurfers with the boom, more compact outline, bit more stable, very good for freestyle and learning. So it's a question of taste and style. Slick SLS has lighter and stiffer materials vs Slick. All booms work with the Slicks.
