Foil Wings – Inflatable Wings for Beginners and Experienced Riders
A wing is an inflatable hand-held sail that turns wind into drive while you ride a foil board. It isn't attached to the board, so your setup stays simple, light and quick to rig. Foil wings differ in size, shape and how you hold them, with handles or a boom.
Our range includes wings for beginners, wave riding and high-performance sessions in sizes from around 2 to 6 m². You can also see them in person in our shop in Ljubljana. You'll find all our gear on the Wing foil page.
Which Wing Should I Choose?
| Who and where | What to choose |
|---|---|
| Beginners (first flights) | freeride wing + around 5 m² + boom or wide handle |
| All-round riding (lake, sea) | freeride wing + 2 sizes for different winds |
| Waves (wing surfing) | wave wing + good drift + light construction |
| Speed and upwind angle (experienced) | freerace wing + higher aspect ratio + boom |
| Lowest weight (advanced) | lightweight version + more responsive + higher price |
What Size Wing Do I Need?
You choose a wing size based on the wind and your weight: lighter wind needs a bigger wing, stronger wind a smaller one. As a rough guide for a rider of around 75 kg:
| Wind | Wing size |
|---|---|
| 10–14 knots (light) | 6 m² |
| 14–18 knots (moderate) | 5 m² |
| 18–24 knots (strong) | 4 m² |
| 24–30 knots (very strong) | 3 m² |
| Over 30 knots | 2–2.5 m² |
Heavier riders should go one size up, lighter riders one size down. For beginners, a wing of around 5 m² works best. As you progress, add a second size to cover more wind conditions.
Types of Wings
Freeride Wings
A freeride wing is versatile, with steady, predictable power. It's suited to learning and most everyday riding.
Wave Wings
A wave wing is lighter and drifts well when you let it go while riding a wave. It doesn't pull, so you can focus on the wave.
Freerace Wings
A freerace wing has a higher aspect ratio, more speed and a better upwind angle. It's built for experienced riders and often comes with a boom.
Lightweight Versions
Lightweight versions use lighter materials and feel more responsive. You'll notice the difference mainly in advanced riding.
Wing With Handles or a Boom?
| Grip | Features |
|---|---|
| Handles (rigid or soft) | lighter + more compact for travel + less to hold on to |
| Boom (carbon bar) | free hand positioning + easier learning + more even grip |
Choose a wing boom in the size that matches your wing. On some wings you can swap the boom for handles and back.

How to Care for Your Wing
After riding in the sea, rinse your wing with fresh water and dry it in the shade before packing it away. Don't leave it inflated in the sun or on sand in the wind, where it gets dragged and scuffed. Store it dry and loosely folded.
