What is the new type of windsurfing?
Wing foiling. Wing foiling or wing surfing or winging is a wind propelled water sport that developed from kitesurfing, windsurfing and surfing. The sailor, standing on a board, holds directly onto a wing. Hydrofoiling is generally harder than surfing due to its complex balance and speed management, requiring multiple practice sessions to master.Compared to surfing, I spend more time up and riding rather than sitting and waiting for waves. Surfing often feels like a waiting game with long lulls between sets, while foiling allows far more continuous riding. This added riding time makes each session so much more fun and exhilarating!The wing is easier to control than a windsurfing sail, and the foil board is more stable than a traditional windsurfing board. This means that you are less likely to fall off when you are wingfoiling. Wingfoiling can be learned in lighter winds. Wingfoiling requires less wind to get going than windsurfing.The short answer is yes, learning foil board surfing is more challenging than surfing due to the specifics of the balance involved. That’s why it helps if you have advanced surfing or kitesurfing skills before you begin your foiling journey.
