WHO’S IT FOR?
The Wing-Surfer is for board riders of all kinds looking for a new wind powered thrill.
WHAT DOES IT DO?
By harnessing the wind, the Wing-Surfer lets you transform your stand up paddleboard or SUP foilboard into
a whole new riding experience.
WHY IS IT UNIQUE?
It’s a unique cross between kitesurfing, windsurfing and foilsurfing with the added element to be used on any
stand up paddleboard as well.

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
The Wing-Surfer is the ultimate handheld inflatable surfing wing. It’s a cross between a windsurfing sail and
kiteboarding kite but with no rigging, no hardware and no strings attached! It is made with the same industry
leading and high quality materials and construction as Naish kiteboarding kites, utilizing Quad-Tex canopy
material and top-of-the-line Teijin dacron leading edge and strut for lightweight, yet long lasting performance. RED/ORANGE/GREY
Our goal with the Wing-Surfer was to pinpoint where performance meets simplicity. The Naish One Point
Inflation System allows for quick inflation while integrated ergonomic handles along the center strut provides
comfortable and easy handling. At 4 m2, the Wing-Surfer is just the right size to do it all—providing enough
power and speed for light wind cruising on a stand up paddleboard or enough power and lift for a foil board
to get up and glide in as little as 12 knots of wind. The dihedral swept wing design is perfectly balanced,
lightweight, extremely stable and easy to handle. Integrated velcro straps on the handles allow for quick
attachment of your SUP paddle for added mobility in case the wind dies. The Wing-Surfer deflates in seconds
and packs up into the provided backpack for incredibly easy transport and travel.

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
With its light pull, light weight and light input, the Boxer is the ultimate kite for underpowered riding and foiling.
The single luff strut and Quad-Tex construction create a lightweight framework that stays in the air easily—
even in super light wind. This eliminates any struggle to keep the kite up, so you can keep your focus on foiling.
When sheeting out, it quickly offers a lot of depower in a shorter throw. This keeps the kite from pulling too
much and feels as if it almost disappears. Its lightweight load pulls more through the bar than through the
harness, for more direct steering. Additionally, because it’s so responsive to lighter inputs, lighter riders and
foilers can easily make micro-adjustments without being thrown off-balance.
This year we worked on making the kite even lighter. Each size has saved up to 280 g, making the Boxer the
lightest kite on the market. All these precious grams saved translate to weight the wind does not need to carry
anymore and creates a more efficient kite for your session. TEAL/ORANGE
Available in sizes as small as 3.5 meters, the Boxer is built for foiling. It’s such a great all-around performer that
larger sizes do really well during lightwind twin tip riding too!
If you’re foiling, riding underpowered, or have lighter input, the Boxer will let you push the boundaries of light wind.
