This may seem like a dumb tip, but try it! It might help you get back to shore if the conditions are gnarly and you're getting exhausted while paddling or not making any progress toward land. #wingfoil #safety #paddling
One reason I don’t surf is I’m terrible at paddling. Bad shoulders from years of rock climbing, but I never was very good at it. But a lot of wing boards aren’t very aerodynamic, and you have the added drag of the wing behind you. My new board from VB Surfboards should paddle much better. The 55L I tried paddled better than my 65L AXIS Froth. Clinton lost his wing one day and he was a rocket ship paddling his custom downwind board from Proper Surfboards. 7’10” x 19” with no wing drag and he caught up to me by the time I downwinded to his wing and caught it.
