I am always blown away by the science -hydrodynamics I guess, and how those little wings can develop so much lift that it can pick up your bodyweight and the weight of all the gear and push it up off the water. Amazing.

Well first off, you need money. Abackground in surfing definitely helps the learning curve. And a basic understanding of wind/sailing. If can, snag a board with a blue planet box that can take a tuttle mast or plate mount. AND fin boxes so you could sup/prone/wing/etc. With one board, you could nearly cover every discipline of surfing. Great videos as always damien! Pushed me to get into sup foil/winging

Thanks for your advice I like your page 3 weeks ago I went for the last time to practice a weight of 270 pounds and I am 6.5 I have a 7 foot board and a 7.2 meter wing it has cost me and I even broke the wing that aorita is under repair time back I already surfed but it is not the same I would like you to give me some tips on how to learn to stand on the boart
@DamienLeroyYouTube
@DamienLeroyYouTube 3 года назад
How big is your board? Volume... I would think you should have volume around 150L and wide so you have stability! I am guessing your board does not have a ton of volume? 270lbs I love it buddy good for you! Practice getting up on your board over and over on land first with the wing in hand will help you as you move to the water.

You talk about using a SUP, but if you don't have a center board or dagger board, how can you control the board from going down wind?
@DamienLeroyYouTube
@DamienLeroyYouTube 3 года назад
Thomas, You are correct the board really wants to go downwind. As you get better you can actually make an SUP go upwind with no dagger board but not when you are learning you are going down wind for sure! Also you can get a SLINGSHOT SUP WINDER. Helps for the SUP.....
@dennislam4454
@dennislam4454 2 года назад
Hi Damien, Thanks for the great videos. I have two questions. 1. What could be a reason for a Board with less volume? I mean, when I am up on the foil, the volume of the board doesn't matter at all, right? 2. What is your opinion on inflatable boards? Pros and Cons? Thanks! Greetings from Germany!
@DamienLeroyYouTube
@DamienLeroyYouTube 2 года назад
Great questions! 1. I would say a smaller less value board is just nimble and fun when you get better that's it. You are right as when up, it does not really matter, but best way to explain it is a long board and short board surfing. Long board just does not turn as well as a short board but easy to catch waves on the long board! Same concept. 2. More personal choice. Inflatable work but more performance always in a Fiberglass/carbon board. Have a great day!

Can you get by with an 80L board at 160 pounds? Wanting to get started and looking at the 5'5" Armstrong Wing/SUP model. I would prefer not to buy a $2000 board and then out grow it in a few months and have to buy another expensive board. I'm completely new to wing foiling but I am an intermediate surfer(not foil surfer) and a decent foiler behind a jet ski with no rope. Also, would be doing this on a lake some and want to be sure my board/wing combo would work for this. Just trying to make the most of my investment. Thanks for your help and the great videos!

@gottaflyrc
@gottaflyrc 3 года назад
Great info, thanks for the links! I'm 61, with limited knee & hip flexibility to match. So I'm concerned about the beginner trials of getting on foil from a standstill. I do have a 5'6" lift eFoil though, and was hoping to use it with a folding prop to cheat into winging mode until I build up experience. Would the 63 lb eFoil be too much for the wing if I'm up on foil with less drag?
@DamienLeroyYouTube
@DamienLeroyYouTube 3 года назад
Now that is a great questions.... I honestly think you will be better getting yourself a wing board over the 5'6 efoil. Something like this.....adventuresportsusa.com/collec... Get yourself a board with a lot of volume and wide so it's easy for you to stand up on then it will help you with your limited knee & hip flexibility. Volume will help a ton, the 5'6 might be a little hard... You could go with a LIFT SUP and you can use all your efoil wings on your foil board as everything is modular. Just a thought! liftfoils.com/product/710-foil-sup/ The good news is the efoil is the best way to learn how to foil. So you are ahead of the game to learn wingsurfing!

My wife (135#) and I(165#) are psyched to start winging. Your videos have been very helpful. We are both competent windsurfers and wanted to try kiting but think winging is the best next step for us. Are there sources of used gear? We are in the Boston area. I am thinking of buying a duotone 5M wing to use with a SUP or large windsurf board to get dtarted. Then renting a foiling board or two to try out. Maybe it is my windsurfing experience but the boom style wing from duotone seems like the most flexible for us to start with. What are your thoughts on this plan?

@DamienLeroyYouTube
@DamienLeroyYouTube 3 года назад
Anthony, It all depends on the weight of a person for sure but in general yes I would push more towards a 2000 +cm or more. The board has good volume so you are good. The more lift the easier to get up! For sure the 1800 will work but in the beginning its nice to have a little more. It will work for sure though.

I'd love to see more info on the 7m x2 wing, is it just for big guys or can a regular sized (165 lbs) guy managed a wing that big? Basically what's the biggest size that's still manageable for the best LW experience? The 6m is the safer bet but I'm sure there is a lot more power in the 7m, it just might be too big to handle.
@DamienLeroyYouTube
@DamienLeroyYouTube 3 года назад
Friend! We have a X2 review video dropping very soon with Jon Modica. Stay tuned but to answer your question the 7m X2 is a great wing and yes it has tons of power. Can a 165 pound guy use it! yep I weight 155 and I can ride that thing in nothing and it really does not feel like a huge wing compared to other wings of that size. You can get away with a 6m for sure but if you want a little more get up and go in the light winds it helps! Keep in mind the 6m will pull almost like a 7m of other companies out there. I know that's a lot of info but you really will not go wrong either way!

I foil behind the boat on Slingshot Infinity 84 (2066cm2), will that work for SUP/Winging, or is the Fusion X series a lot better? I'm 175 pounds (and used to tiny board behind the boat - Dwarfcraft), will 110L X-fly be enough? Thank you!
@DamienLeroyYouTube
@DamienLeroyYouTube 2 года назад
Friend, Yes the Slingshot Infinity 84 will work but there are better foils now on the market but 100% that will work for SUP/WINGING. 110L board will be perfect for you. A little harder to learn than say a 130-140L, but a board you could have for a long time and the right size. I think its perfect the x-fly 6'2 111 you speak about. Let me know if that helps.

You are about 171 pounds so a 6m wing would be great and you can get away with the 110L I believe. More stable would be the 125L. I would go with the big foil 2000 for sure! It helps to get you up and learn easier you can always go smaller later! Harry runs his 2100 in all wind conditions just changes his wing 6m to 4m, 3m and so on! Hope that helps....

Thanks for the videos! I'm wondering, could you wingsurf on an efoil while the battery is removed(charging)
@DamienLeroyYouTube
@DamienLeroyYouTube 3 года назад
Well you could ride on the efoil board with the wing yes, but the Motor will be a lot of drag under water to get up on foil, so not ideal

@stkl23 3 года назад
What Damien said plus the foil wings on efoil boards are usually suuuper thin to reduce drag as much as possible. That makes them less than ideal for wing foiling where you need either much wind or a big front wing.

Awesome video! I just started learning, and I have a question. Which foil is best when you start learning, a canard wing with stabilizer innthe front or a classic wing with stabilizer in the tail?
@DamienLeroyYouTube
@DamienLeroyYouTube 3 года назад
Honestly friend they both work but I would recommend a very big stable wing and the stabilizer in the back. It seams to me to be the most user friendly!
@ap2372
@ap2372 3 года назад
@@DamienLeroyRU-vid thank you for the answer. I have both but I will do as you say, start learning with the classic wing. The reason I asked is that the guy who sells canard foils claims are easier to learn. Please check andersson foils. Anyway your videos are awesome and help me a lot in the process of learning. Thank you!

Thanks a lot for your videos! As far as Duotone is concerned, do you suggest the Echo or the Unit for a beginner? Thanks in advance for your suggestions

Brenardo, Happy to try and help. I personally have not been on a Duotone yet so I can not comment. My apologies.... The Crosswing X2 rocks!

@@DamienLeroyRU-vid Thanks a lot! Yes, the Crosswing X2 is a wonderful wing, maybe the best at the moment, and I feel particularly attracted to it. I appreciate the camber and the handles a lot. Nice movies at Lake Garda, close to the spot where I live. Maybe a suggestion for a Cabrinha board that could give wings to my feet?

Hi Damien, how much volume/ length does your black/ white board have? I have a lot of kite/ surf foil experience and am debating keeping a 5' 44L surf foil board as my sinker setup farther down the line (still going to learn on bigger boards). Thoughts?

Jeff, My black and white board is a 4'8 by 55L link here: liftfoils.com/product/4-8-x-55-liter/. love it..... Volume is your friend! :)

Hi Damien, Inflatable Wing/SUP foilboard for beginners. Thoughts?
@DamienLeroyYouTube
@DamienLeroyYouTube 3 года назад
For sure great way to learn the wing! I would get a big SUP as you want stability! If you can get a daggerboard in the center, like a windsurfer it will help them learn to go up wind on the board with the wing a lot easier as well.... :)

@@DamienLeroyRU-vid not sure if I was clear in my question. I meant...using an Inflatable Board for Wing-Foiling. There are some being specifically being designed for Wing-Foiling purpose. Like F-one Rocket Air and Gong Hipe.

@@raghuram2815 My apologies I have not been on one so I can not comment... I believe it would work for sure. Not sure how sticky it is to the water but they should work. When I try one I will let you know... We never see them here. Not much help sorry friend.
