Naish Inflatable WingSurfer

Robby Naish is releasing an inflatable alternative to the Skimbat / Kitewing. Looks interesting. Wonder what it will cost? Not sure why it doesn't seem to include a harness hook but I'm sure someone will fashion something to make it easier to hold down for longer sessions.

I gotta have one. :D No reason it couldn't be used with an ATB, and maybe a buggy in addition to foil board or SUP.

Yes, and I'm thinking it has got to be cheaper than a KiteWing which I've always wanted but never purchased. The thing is probably super light and could be used with rollerblades, skateboards, etc. as long as you don't drag the wing. Will be interesting to see if its only one size or many. Doubt you can do much jumping on it but maybe if it is as rigid as an LEI.

Maybe even ice skates. Guess the main question is how big is it, and will be hard to hold it up for long. From what I read it will be available in Summer 2019, so it may be a while. I check website on the video and they don't show it, but you can get on the list.

i hav sup sailed a framed 8 sqm pansh genesis during hours, no harness and 4 beaufort
much less effort than windsurfing

this wing is great with an inflatable sup cause you alreay have a pump
you can pump the wing on water, when tired of paddling:cool:

Looks like Slingshot is entering the sparless wing game too. https://blog.slingshotsports.com/top-5-questions-answered-ab...
