Wingsurfing

Wing accessories

- 360-degree recording at 8K/60fps, with a freely selectable viewing angle and powerful digital stabilisation, ideal for shaky water sports action.  
- Adventure kit with spare batteries, charging case and selfie stick; built-in 128 GB storage, expandable via microSD, waterproof to 10 m.  
- Strong points include video, slow motion and in-app editing, but battery life is weaker and there is no burst mode compared to traditional action cameras.

- The retractable leash combines a 1.80-metre webbing strap in a retractable casing with a classic leash, making it very compact when attached to the hip belt.
- The hip belt is comfortable and can be adjusted to fit snugly; the reel at the back is barely noticeable; it attaches to the board via a loop-and-knot connection.
- Nothing dangles whilst riding; in the event of a fall, there is greater distance from the board, no spring effect as with spiral leashes, and no acceleration of the board.

- The Impact Surf Hat and Impact Cap offer sun protection and integrated basic protection thanks to their plastic and impact-resistant shells, respectively, secured with a chin strap.

- Surf shoes protect against cuts and bruises in summer, provide grip and, despite their thin soles, can give you a good feel for the board.  
- Key criteria: thin neoprene (approx. 2–3 mm), balanced sole thickness, good protection for the toes and instep, an elasticated cuff and, where necessary, Velcro fastening to prevent slipping.  
- Fit is crucial; models vary greatly in width, protection, feel and features, which is why it’s essential to try them on before buying.

- Radio keys are sensitive to water; frequent hiding places such as on the front tyre are considered unsafe.
- Mobile key safes offer better protection, but can be tricky in terms of insurance law; conditions depend on the respective policy.
- Waterproof key pouches under the Neo are theft-proof; models such as Fidlock Hermetic mini or Keyfender have different carrying properties.

- The HoverAir Aqua is a waterproof, buoyant C0 drone with a Lighthouse wristband that autonomously tracks water sports enthusiasts via GPS.  
- Its strengths include take-offs and landings on water, a ‘turtle’ mode and ease of use for beginners; Weaknesses include range, noise levels and short battery life.  
- Video quality is solid, but photo quality is poor; the high price and limited manual mode make it particularly suitable for close-up action videos of water sports.
