I primarily kite foil and wing foil on the the AXIS 1020.
The 1020 is a steady as she goes foil. You can spice up the beast quite cheaply by changing the rear stab.
I started with the 1020/440, then 1020/400, then 1020/370 and now 1020/460 HA.
It has been quite amazing the difference in turning and carving performance.
A slightly more expensive route is to shorten the fuselage. This also brings some dramatic improvements in turning and carving.

Making flat days fun. If you're in a place that has almost no waves, this foil is going to have you on the water way more often.
so for a Axis 1020 - at 90kg learner with say a 5m or 6m Echo (10-18kts) , should i go the 440 rear?
And do you recommend the 75cm mast and standard (76.5cm) fuselage?
Does anyone use the 90 mast ? More popular for kitefoil I know but curious to know whether it helps in wingding as well to give you more time to adjust ?
Is the S860 too small for 85+ kg supfoilers in small to medium waves?
Larry is 64 kg!
Axis website:
The 860 can also be high performance SUP wing for bigger days or lighter riders. And if it gets really windy, the 860 can be the surfiest Wing Surfing wing you have ever used.
Hello, would the 1010 wing be enough for a 80kg rider for dw (20knts - 30 knts) and winging (15knts - 20 knts)? I worry that the 1015 might be to big (too much leverage power), don't you think?
Hi Guys!
As a Swede with no possibility to test before buy, any advice for an old & heavy guy (48y / 200lbs) prior I press the order button?
Wingdinging and need something for light days, and more windy days (ocean riding on knee to chest high waves).
Looking at this combo:
Light wind - S1150+S390GAP
Windier days - S860+370
Probably need to sell the wifes SUP to fund it all so any pointers if I am on something is much apriciated
Hey Joopthesurfer,
The Axis 101 is a pretty good Wing to consider.
It is alI I need in light wind with a 5.3m wing at 85kg. The 101 is fun to sup surf in waist high waves.
The rear wing changes the ride for sure so totally just preference for the rider. Like Baldy said, the 1010 is great also and can get you going in really light winds.
There's a lot of second hand 920 front wings on the market. Early easy lift and much cheaper to start winging with that which is what I did. You'll be scratching your first wing a lot.
Hi Guys/fellow foilers! :)
Incase someone "newbie" as me reads this, some feedback from a beginner (92kg/191cm and 9 sessions in):
Got the Axis 1010/400/short fuse/75cm mast now, and was out in 8-14 knots.
No problem get the lift needed (Echo 7m) and get going in 8knots and having a BLAST!
VERY happy with the foil and all concerns i would not get going in "no wind" are now "gone with the wind" :D
There is an axis 1300 coming out in the next couple of weeks. Bigger version of the 1150. I think adrian is trying to out wingspan my foils but i always seem to be 100mm ahead haha
