Sabfoil new w699 wing has strange tech data: oficially it is 880 cm2 wing but when looking to deeper tech data it is written as 850 cm2. How to understand it? Maybe someone already tried 699 and can say some review?
Moses has history of changing the numbers or having them a bit inaccurate and correcting that later. Ask them directly, hopefully they’ll fix it

har! I missed that info, Mark at Boardworx asked Stacey on sunday at the Sab uk center, and he recommended the 399 stab with the 699 wing, so mark added that to the box with the 699.
its arriving today in a few hours, hope to use it today at Rossy, waves and wind are forecast, so direct back to back 699 v 633,

ok 2 days to and fro from the 633 to the 699,
the 699 is confusing me as I thought the 699 would be a similar ride as the 633,
Rhosneigr Nth Wales the conditions have been perfect for the last 2 days, 7mtr most of the time to a maximum 9mtr, big waves the first 7mtr day, well very big for me on a foil, twice my height with some bigger sets pushing through, but after hi tide the water sort of flattened off a bit, same today but smaller 5ft waves, the 699 reminded me very much of the 679 the old 682, the 399 rear wing made the 699 a bit too unstable for me, much more stable with the 483 on the rear, but still unstable compared to the 633, this took away my confidence to drop down the waves at speed, so it was a good thing I only went in the waves near the shoulders just in case, as i was fearful of crashing down the wave face,
speed comes on smoothly, but the front wing was singing its head off, easy to fix but it proves it not always the rear wing,
some have said this may be a good learning wing, i would have to say i would not agree, the 799 is more gentle and forgiving and much more stable with good progressive lift, the 699 has fierce lift and needs quick reactions to stop it jumping clear of the water, i think some guys will have a great time trying different rear wings to get nearer the feel they prefer, for me though I am keeping my 633 wings. fun and fast in all conditions, no mods needed apart from getting them mounted on the Kraken masts 103 for the open sea with waves and 93 for the flatter water, massive difference!!

699 looks like “even smaller than 679 if you insist riding surf fuselage”. 30% smaller than 633 and likely thinner it should be a faster wing for more powered rides. Something like 720 wing but lower aspect.

How would you compare 633 and 799 for kiting?
