Does anyone have tried this wing? Is it good for kitefoiling in wave ? What else this wing are good?

I had one for a while and kitefoiled with it in very very light airs, under 7knts with a 13 or 15mtr U' light V3 Chronos.
it almost refuses to stall, and many times had to jump off to stop as it slowly glided into the shore,
Great for boosting as well, and a few times on landing, the foil just skimmed along on top of the water, which was amazing and I was claiming it as a trick,
So it's a great tool for letting you be the only one out on the water, it's not fast, fast enough but the lift is immense and control becomes an issue if conditions are just less than perfect, if the winds pick up slightly then getting downind is not fun, its scary! and to gain back control I was just turning back upwind to hold the wing down, and speed control on toeside can be entertaining.
for me it became tiresome to use, unless the wind was just mega light and stayed so, I just became arghh dam this wing, it became a session spoiler as I found myself fighting it too many times,
but every one should try one, with a big kite on flat water in 5-6 knots maximum,
and try boosting it, it will make you laugh out loud.
I very rarely miss it, apart from the few times I could do with a wing beneath me that will pump along happily till your legs are done, at pumping it was just great fun.
and before anyone asks, its not great with a small kite.
the 633 is just way more fun in mega light airs.

I only partly agree with Foils assessment above: Everything mentioned about the low end of the foil is true, it is amazing if you look at exploring the very low end of the wind range. Compared to the 633, it gives you approximately 1 knot more low end. I also used it as an alternative to the 633 or 679 when I wanted to use a smaller kite (9m instead of 12m). With 1500cm2, it is clear that its not the fastest, but I am amazed that I can do almost all manoueuvers I can do on the smaller wings also on the 790, its just a bit slower. I have never ridden it overpowered, so I cannot comment on this aspect.
Its my goto wing in borderline conditions, a "session saver"..

So if you are looking for an addition for the lower end of the wind range and you ride tube kites, its definitely a good choice! Of course, if you have a big foil kite, you probably dont need it, as smaller wings will also do the job.

I use it for winging in stronger winds (also have the 1100) and for kiting when it is worth it (I mostly use the 633)

For me it is not a matter of light wind potential as I only need a kite that pulls me out of the water. Once out of the water, the 633 gives me plenty of low end, no problem.

I use the 790 with my peaks when I want to ride the swell or waves, no matter the wind. You can just use the swell without the power of the kite (like on the wingding, except you still have some pull). I can't do that with the 633 being 100kg.

790 compared to 633: slower, lower stall speed, and everything you would expect from a large surf wing.

Cruising speed for me is 12-15 knots

I use the 790 with 450 stab and 633 with 425 stab. Both are very wel balanced this way.

Frankie boy, this is what I'm talking about. I do have a Peak4 5 m² and I already use a 1500cm² 65cm wingspan (Space Skate) for ride swell and knee low height waves. I do like my wing but I definitely wanna something with more glide. I'm 82kg and my intention is ride in 10 to 15knots.

I would go for a more HA wing if you want more glide and ride swell but be carefull not ending with a foil that is too fast. Not a problem with a wing but think about the kite you don't want to drop it
HA = more speed and glide, long turns (swell)
Low AR = slower and better short turns (waves)

There’s new 950 wing out with comparable area as H4(SpaceSkate) and 790, yet higher aspect 5.6 vs 3.9 for 790 and I’d consider 1600 sq.cm a “lightwindiest wing” for kiting. For me even 633 is pretty slow and it is thinner than 790 but for those riding ultimate lightwind I’d say 950 should be awesome
