I just slide the dakine maniac's hook over my waist leash and instant harness. My friends like the Dakine chameleon harness since it's very soft with little weight.

A faster foil will help also. Less drag, less stress on the hands

Low winds, high winds, it's fun in all winds. If you're not having fun in the light winds then you're just on the wrong gear. Get a 6 meter wing and a big foil with a board 6' or smaller and you'll have a good time.

The foil on the bottom will allow the board to go up wind way easier than fins even when it's not on foil. But if you're not going to use a foil. Keep the board flat, pressure center to rear of board. Point the nose and let the fins guide you. Put the wing up high to get more lift instead of pull.

Metal is stiffer and Axis is the stiff'est which keeps from wobble effect while you sup. Also wobble causes loss of power in the foil.

Yes, I've actually ridden that F1 inflatable. A buddy of mine got it as his first board and I found it to make riding harder than using a 6' solid board cause of the bouncing of the nose. But to each their own. A good point of the inflatables is they're soft to fall on. I'm with Mike on the width, t...

In case anyone is wondering, the smaller the board that you can stand on, the lower the winds needed to get on foil. So my 5'1" 90 liter, I can pump onto foil 6-8 knots, if I'm on a 7 foot board, then I better have a solid 12-15 cause the more material in front of you the more negative effect on the...

Got on the 6 meter airush wing a few days ago. Very fun wing. Here's my random notes on it. A bit over done on the handles and the windows are big but I never use them. You need to know how to do origami to get it back in the bag, so I put it in a solo 15.5 bag. The lift is more in the tail of the w...

Dksurfer, I'd go with the fanatic 95 liter or something around that depending on where you live for wing dedicated board. I'm 170 and use a 5'1@90 liter but I can drop down to 70 liters and still knee start but harder to do in rougher conditions. If you're going to sup foil also then just keep it 6'...
