Taking to the air with inflatable boards? No problem!
Many brands offer inflatable boards for wingsurfing, so-called "inflatables". We explain the advantages and disadvantages of these boards for wingfoiling in terms of shape, pack size and durability here.

Inflatable boards have long since overtaken hardboards in stand-up paddling (SUP) and "inflatables" have also been available in windsurfing for some time now. But do such concepts also make sense for compact wingfoil boards? Isn't the foil attachment inevitably soft and fragile? And what shape restrictions do you have to live with on inflatable boards?

We answer these and other questions about the right boards for wingsurfing in this clip!

You can find out whether the individual "inflatables" are also competitive on the water in the respective test reports in the section "Products" .
