Love the concept - easy to de-power downwind and should be able to angle the foil like a kite-foiler upwind?

I'll wait for the Slingshot version

Don't let go of the boom !!

Reminds to much of a kite.l pass on that one!

I think its funny how Naish always acts like he's the first while most of the time he is definately not and (my opinion) more often than not doesn't have the best worked out version of things.

Fanatic is on to it as well?

this is looking better...

I wonder how much wind this thing needs and if it could replace my 7.2 sail?

1 - If I can pack this wing in my regular luggage and rent a SUP @ a windy-ish resort and have fun...
2 - If I can get out on the ice of our lake in winter and scoot around on some kinda board... or skates... or a ring of frozen sausage...
3 - If the price is not stupid and it gets my SUP going half-assed-decent in sub-planing conditions... (iffy)
4 - If I can look cool (sausage-ring notwithstanding) doing it... then this old windsurfer is IN!

That just looks like hard work, all arm work no harness and bugger all leverage for control.

I may be wrong but I imagine they won't take long to hit the s/h market

I think it looks like a bit of fun :).

We will for sure give it a go here and see what it is all about and get a lot of foilers to test it out,,

I don't think you would need a harness, as the power you need (when on the foil) , is so little.
Paired with the right foil / board.

We already require so little power to get going on the more lifty foils (freeriding / fun foils) on the wind foil boards.

Think it just have to bee seen as a potentially fun 'add on', to the Wind foiling / Kite foiling / SUP foiling.

I wonder how the pricing will be?
Also I wonder about the size of board to use?

It'll be good to not have to rig up a sail.

How are you supposed to hang onto it for extended periods. It's weird! Cumbersome. I'm not sold. Any footage of Mr Naish in action on it?

wrooong picture Sean !
there :

I agree with Jesper - it could be a great option with big high-lift foils when downwinding ocean windswells.
Looks like it might be easy to depower so we can just ride the swells.
