Slipping out of the straps while wingfoiling during a jump is a nightmare for most people. For Fred Hope, such things are the salt in the soup. But even if this shoveit looks buttery smooth and very controlled, the move still has plenty of potential for disaster.
ARD programme - Foiling for people with disabilities
The idea of foiling as a wheelchair user seems absurd at first. But the "Sail United" water sports school in Großenbrode quickly convinces you otherwise and has come up with a learning concept that allows people with physical disabilities to get airborne quickly. You can watch the programme here in the ARD media library.
Eight things that are annoying about wings
To describe Philipp Kümpel as an absolute wing enthusiast would be an understatement. The Leipzig local regularly provides the scene with videos, interviews and stories about wingsurfing and windsurfing - and spends what feels like every free minute on the water. In this video, Philipp lets it all hang out: he lists the annoying things about wingfoiling! Tip: Watch to the end!

That really hit the nail on the head! Aleks Acherer chooses the emergency exit for this trick during the World Cup Costa Brava, but fortunately hits the ground next to the wing. Only in slow motion do you notice that the stabiliser of the foil damages the front tube of the wing and that it visibly runs out of air on impact.

When youthful recklessness - Benjamin Castenskjold is only 14 years old - comes together with the right skills (the guy won his first Freestyle World Cup a few days ago), sometimes clips are created that leave you holding your breath. But even if this XXL dune jump looks so controlled, we would definitely advise against copying it!

Noe Cantaloube has reached another milestone in foil history with his first parawing front flip. "And it's just the beginning," Noe writes on his Instagram channel. So it will be interesting to see what else the foil elite come up with...

The wild French are at it again - this time at the Defi Wing event in the south of France, where they were certainly not the fastest with this wing tridem, but definitely had the most fun. Three riders, one board, two foils - no wonder that the division of labour was a bit tricky.

If you have friends like this...you don't need a pump table! Balz Müller gives his mate Michael "Raw Ham" Näf a helping hand with the pump launch. If your back is as broad as Balz's, this type of "robber's ladder" is certainly an uncomplicated alternative to the classic dock launch!

Don't foils actually belong under water? Balz Müller let it slide at the Foil Festival on Fehmarn and skidded metres across the surface of the water with his monofoil "Sea Devil". "Foil drift world record?" he asked in his Insta post. It certainly looks great!
The para-kite wing thing

Hardly any other water sports niche is developing as quickly as parawing, but these guys have overshot the mark. A "conventional" wing, plus lines that are slightly longer than other parawings, plus a bar with which you can steer the wing - the setup reminds us of something, but we can't think of it right now....
In the wake of the giants - stern wave foiling as a popular sport

San Francisco has a lively wingfoil scene, but also a lot of boat traffic at the spots around the Golden Gate Bridge. Instead of being bothered by the big boats, the wingers there even seem to be waiting for the giants to leave, as they create a good stern wave that is great for foiling.

Wingfoil into the monster wave of Jaws? No problem for Kai Lenny! Kai uses extremely small foils with a surface area of just 400 cm2 so that he can ride the giant wave at all - and we're not talking about the stabiliser here, but the front wing. Kai also went tow-in surfing, windsurfing, kitesurfing and paddle surfing that day. So it was actually a completely "normal" day in Lenny's life.

The South African autumn has repeatedly delivered ideal conditions at the spots around Cape Town. At least if you take "ideal" to mean 40 knots of wind and big ramps.

As harmonious as the coexistence between foilers and surfers may look in this video, anyone who clicks on the comments below this clip will quickly get a different impression. On the one hand, there are the foilers, for whom waves like this seem to be made for them, and on the other, the surfers, who feel threatened by the foils. There are even reports of assaults on the beach and mobbing. Yet everything could be so beautiful - given this iconic backdrop.

It was obvious: anything that is fun on the water will sooner or later end up in the hands of all-round waterman Kai Lenny. And when Kai Lenny does something, he does it right: he grabs a trendy parawing and lets the mini kite pull him into an official Jaws break. Wing gathered together, ride the wave, throw the wing back up - it's on! Of course, parawing pioneer Balz Müller was the first to comment on Instagram - but the Mary Poppings GIF is not entirely inappropriate...

Benjamin May in the Föhn storm on Lake Uri
Benjamin May has presented a great clip of an extraordinary day in Switzerland: "At the beginning of this year, I was on the lookout for a big storm. And shortly after New Year, a big foehn storm came over the Alps," he writes about his ten-minute film on YouTube. "Normally we go to our local lake and get around 30 knots. But this time we were looking for something new. I checked every forecast and it looked very promising. Even the locals told me it could be one of the windiest storms of the year. So we made our way to Lake Uri." The lake in Switzerland is also an occasional destination for Balz Müller when it's really blowing. "When we arrived, the wind was blowing fiercely and I rigged up my smallest glider. It was one of the craziest sessions I've ever experienced and I'm already looking forward to the next storm."

The best crashes at the Wingfoil World Cup Ponta Preta
Just a few days ago, the GWA Wingfoil World Cup Ponta Preta decided the world title in the wave discipline. Now the GWA has released a video with the best crashes. And there were plenty of them in Cape Verde - and they often ended up on the sharp lava rocks.

No, of course, contrary to the caption, we're not watching a windsurfer here, but a winger. And even though the clip is a little older, it is no less spectacular: suddenly a jumping whale emerges from the water and checks the foiler off the board. He can hardly believe it himself, and in the comments some surfers confess that they wouldn't take another step into the water after such an experience. But apparently this encounter went well, the winger seems to have remained unharmed!

On first viewing, this promo clip from Forward-WIP doesn't seem particularly eye-catching. But wasn't there something? Attentive observers will discover two curiosities: The double-decker front wing at the beginning of the clip is probably planned as an economic stimulus programme for the foil industry. But what about the strange front wing just before the end of the clip, which looks as if it has been mounted the wrong way round? Is this a design fail from the early days of foiling or the next trend?

Hardly a day goes by without a new trick combination being invented. This time, Xavi Corr is the creative mind behind a move that combines a backflip with a 540-degree turn. The winter training under the Brazilian sun seems to be bearing fruit: "The coconut gives me the power"Xavi explained somewhat cryptically on his Insta channel. Whether it was really just coconut milk that triggered this creative outpouring, or whether Xavi's cocktail also contained plenty of rum, is pure speculation.

Balz Müller once again lives up to his reputation as an innovator: with his latest idea, he solves the space problems of countless parents who have to choose between sun protection for the children and their own sports equipment when travelling to the beach. A beach shell can apparently also be used as a wing without any problems - at least if you have Balz's pumping skills. Further advantages: No pumping up, can be packed up again while still on the water. When will we see the model at Ensis?
Wingfoiling, 5 years later - Nico Prien takes off
Nico Prien is one of the best windsurf foilers in the world. Apart from one attempt a few years ago, wingfoiling hasn't really been on his agenda until now. Now Nico has tried it again and, together with foil pro Balz Müller, has taken a look at the development of the material and the sport itself. And "on the side", Nico is also trying to get his first frontside 360. You can see whether it worked in this extremely entertaining video.

Balz's epiphany came when he saw a stand-up paddler screwing the fin into the board the wrong way round. Did this chosen one perhaps know more than all the rest of the stupid people? Radiculo was plagued by nagging questions, the matter was crying out for answers. So, without further ado, Balz mounted the foil the wrong way round and carried out the test. The result was disturbing: "It's so much easier!", summarised Balz afterwards. His followers have been divided ever since. While his most loyal followers blindly believe him, others harbour (not entirely unjustified) doubts.

Pump foiling through Hamburg City - Benjamin May on a sightseeing trip
Hamburg is perfect for exploring from the water, as not only the tourists on the launches in the harbour know, but also hordes of SUP and canoe paddlers. Benjamin May, on the other hand, prefers to pumpfoot: he set off on a very special sight-seeing tour through the canals and across the Outer and Inner Alster, past villas, cafés and idyllic parks. But the pump-foiling expedition also took him into the canals at the harbour and on the Elbe in front of the panorama of the Elbphilharmonie concert hall - always under the eyes of amazed spectators. "Pump foiling in Hamburg was an exciting adventure that brought the thrill of water sports to the centre of our cityscape," said the man with the legs of steel about his tour. "Hamburg's unique waterways provide the perfect backdrop for this innovative sport, which combines the energy of the city with the serenity of the water."

World premiere in wingfoiling: Lasse Harbacek has jumped the first double loop with the wing, the video of which he posted on Instagram yesterday. "I'm so happy that I finally managed this trick after all the ups and downs," he writes. "When I started this sport 4 years ago, I always had the dream of doing this jump while wingfoiling. Because I was never a really good windsurfer and this trick fascinated me so much. I decided that no matter how long it took, I would do this jump at some point in my life. But I never thought I would have the opportunity to jump a world premiere. When I tried it for the first time six months ago, I was so close. Unfortunately, I injured myself on the landing and was out for three months. The injury made me realise how important it is to prevent injuries through strength training. That's why I trained more during this time than ever before in my life. When I was finally injury-free again and wanted to try again after some time, I realised even more how much of a mental strain such an injury can put on you. I then tried to take a step back and do the things that I enjoyed the most at the time. Yesterday, I tried again in less than ideal conditions and got on well straight away. Now I'm more than motivated to tackle the next big project!"
