Test 2017 - All-round boards: BIC Wing 11'0'' x 32''
The small Wing 11'0" from Bic looks really beefy with its long, very parallel edges.

The bow and stern are also very voluminous as a result, and the board is given plenty of stiffness. On top of that, it runs straight. On the one hand, the BIC is similar to the versatile, balanced board from Red Paddle, but is even more stable, slightly less lively, but still very balanced. Especially when changing position on the board, whether it's just a little for the trim or the long way back to the turn, you can feel the good tipping stability of the 32" width, which only narrows very slowly towards the ends. The bow glides quite flat over the water, not quite as deep as the Croslake or Naish, but also not bent into the sky like the Sup-Monsters, for example.

PLUS Particularly stable, very stable, additional handles, large padMINUS nothing

CONCLUSION An all-round board that is particularly appealing to heavier paddlers.

Stephan Gölnitz

Deputy Editor in Chief surf

Stephan Gölnitz comes from Bochum and had Holland as his home windsurfing territory for many years before moving to Munich in 1996 for the job of test editor at surf magazine. The materials engineering graduate worked as a surf instructor on the Ijsselmeer during his studies and competed for several seasons for the Essen sailing team in the Surfbundesliga and the Funboard Cup. He completed a traineeship at surf-Magazin in the test department and since then has actively accompanied almost all tests on the boom and for more than 10 years also as a photographer. Stephan has covered many thousands of test kilometers, mainly on Lake Garda and in Langebaan, but also in Egypt and Tobago. He gets his hands on over 100 new sails and boards every year as his company car. Privately, he prefers to surf with a foil on Lake Walchensee or “unfortunately far too rarely” in the waves. SUP is Stephan's second passion, which he pursued for several years at numerous SUP races. Today, he prefers to paddle on river tours with family or friends - even for several days.
