Wingsurfing

How to

- Almost any all-round or touring SUP (9-12 feet) is suitable for learning to wingsurf with a wing in light winds.
- A centre fin is required for less lateral drift, WindSUPs have this, other boards can be retrofitted.
- Various retrofit systems with a tensioning strap or adhesive fin box are available and are also used in wingsurfing schools.

- Epoxy resin, precise sanding and an economical amount of resin are key to dense, stable laminate and fin repairs.  
- Fins are built up and wet-sanded in several stages using a resin/carbon mixture and carbon fibres on the leading edge, trailing edge and tip.  
- Boards can be repaired conventionally over a large area or "arthroscopically" using minimally invasive techniques; mast foot tendons should be checked every 2-5 years and replaced if they are torn.

- When wingfoiling, the board can separate from the body, for example if the leash breaks or opens.
- Freestylers and wave-foilers often do without the leash to avoid injuries and material damage.
- In board emergencies, the wing should be actively used for pulling; practise the technique close to the shore beforehand.

Tips & Tricks

- Das Foil sollte vor dem Transport montiert bleiben, Flügel-Cover schützen Personen und Material vor Verletzungen und Beschädigungen.  
- Empfohlen wird das seitliche Tragen: eine Hand an der Fuselage, die andere an der oberen Fußschlaufe, Foil bleibt dabei stets im Blick.  
- Bewährt sind vor allem Schulter- und Seitentrageweise; Kopfmethode ist umstritten und bleibt wie alle Varianten Geschmackssache.
