The concept of inflatable wingboards, known as "inflatables", was adapted from SUPs and has proven itself over the years. Once the plug is pulled, a 3.50 metre long paddleboard shrinks to the size of a wheeled suitcase within seconds - a compelling argument for many paddlers.
But do inflatables also make sense for wingsurfing? After all, the boards here are much more compact with lengths between 1.50 and 2.10 metres. We have also repeatedly presented inflatable wingboards on the WING website and would like to ask for your opinion on this topic.
