Anyone tried the fanatic sky wing 4'7" as sinker / prone? Thinking of using as high wind wing option and for prone surfing (I'm at 90kg).

Did you get the 4'7?
im 90kg as well and thinking of getting it

I tried it (110kg) and I could not even get it to plane. Had no troubles with a similar volume board that was 4'11.

Didn't end up going with the Fanatic 4'7". Couldn't get any advice the Fanatic was a good crossover, wing to prone. In the end I researched prone in more detail and ended getting a prone specific board. With winging I stuck with my 90lt board for everything

Yep. Wing and prone it. 90kgs. Love the board

I've got one 86kg

used it twice winging. First time awesome, second time disaster (too sinky for the amount of wind/water depth). I find the 4'8" 60l much easier and versatile for what I like to do. I don't use a harness or footstraps. 4'6" is awesome when flying though
Intending to try it for prone and dockstarting but my friend says may be a touch wide for prone. but probably doenst matter for my level.
