The Wing Surf consists in managing a wing released from the board, therefore without cables, holding it with both hands and using our body as a means of transferring the energy created by the wind. The wing has several air chambers that create the structure like the struts and leading edge of a kite. Most of the wings on the market have handles that allow you to have a grip on the inflatable structure allowing you to maneuver the wing and direct it in the desired positions, in some cases the handles have been replaced by a sort of "boom" making the structure more rigid, thus giving the possibility to slide your hands and place them where you prefer; the hands near the trailing edge will create more power and will help you close the edge while moving them in the opposite direction will give you more control of the wing in general. On the upper part, in some wings, you will find one or two windows in transparent fabric that allow you to see and control the surrounding situation, some houses have preferred not to provide this option in favor of greater rigidity and structure of the wing. Compared to Kitesurfing and Windsurfing, the Wing offers the possibility of being inclined and being able to be positioned in any area around our body giving us the opportunity to take advantage of the direction and strength of the wind on every occasion to navigate and perform the most varied maneuvers up to "foil" the wing to cancel its traction. Most of the wings are equipped with an attack to constrain them to the trapeze thus helping us to make more use of the force of the wind and to rest the arms. Another factor that differs from Windsurfing and Kitesurfing are the dimensions of the wings which, with a smaller surface exposed to the wind, allow us to navigate in a wider wind range. In order to use the Wing Foil it is necessary to take advantage of the advantages of a board with the Foil which is now becoming more and more present in the waters of these sports. The board, as in all aquatic disciplines, must be of a greater "volume" for beginners while those who already know how to go with the foil can take advantage of the performance of a smaller and more manageable board. The Foil is composed, as many already know, of the shaft (Mast), the Front and the Back Wing and the body that unites these two. The various sizes available make it possible to further reduce the force of the wind necessary for gliding and the "flight" height from the water of the board.
