Hi, great review, I didn’t expect an inflatable to be rated so highly. I am a newbie and any thoughts on first Wing Foil board appreciated. By way of background, have windsurfed, surfed and SUP’d for many years. I spent a couple of hours last month at OTC getting up an foiling on a 140 ltr Fanatic with 2000 cm wing. I have a Naish S25 5.3 wing and have been out a few times on a long board SUP. I have a 2020 Fanatic Aero Foil 2000cm ready and waiting to bolt onto my board. I had ordered a… Read more »
Hey Jeremy . Thanks for sending over your questions. There are so many good boards out there. I do admit it is hard to decide. First thing I will say is that there is still a compromise between an inflatable board compared to a composite board. But I guess the only compromise for this Nash S 25 was that there wasn’t any foot straps on it. Having foot strap options or plugs really can increase your learning curve. So whatever board you go with definitely keep that in mind. I fully understand and see the benefits of going for a… Read more »
Hi Rueben
Thanks a really helpful reply, appreciated, thank you.
To be fair to Gong, so far, customer service and communication over the Christmas period has been very good.
Once the damaged board gets back to them, they have offered three options , refund, replacement or a repair and discount on original price.
I am going to wait and see until they get the board back and then make a choice on the above three options
I appreciate, as always, you get what you pay for.
Thanks for your thoughts, appreciated.
I will keep you updated.
Regards
Jeremy.
Cool Thanks Jeremy
i wanted to lean how to foil with a wing but when we are at anchor on a our boat, so inflatable was the way to go. I purchased this board and 5.3naish wing. The leaning curve is steep but I’m progressing. Would love to know your recommended position of the mast in the foil box and how it effects the performance?
Thanks guys
Hey Mark. The basics are the further forward you put the foil in the box the more lift (the earlier foil) you will get. But you will get overpowered earlier and you may need to stand further forward to keep the nose of the board flat. The further back you put the foil in the box. The less lift you will get. But this will be able to handle higher speeds and allow you to trim the the board a bit further back on the board. I found it best to be using the foil near the back of the… Read more »
I have learned to wing on this board having windfoiled for 2 years. Am a fan of inflatables and generally happy with the board but would like footstraps so am thinking of adding them as others have done. Have already added extra grip to the front of the board.
Hey Darryl sounds cool please send us some pics and let us know how you did it.
