Which wing for learning to wing. I'm 180lbs wind will be 15-20 flat water with not much of a current. Planning on using a 6m wing. The board I have is a Camet 5'8" 125 liters.
Thanks for the advice. Ease keep it the 2 wings. Not buying a whole new foil setup just expanding on my moses/sabfoil line for the time being.

1100 will be big enough regarding your weight and wing.
Enjoy and welcome to this sport!

I’m looking for that extra lift and glide while foiling on swells and small waves. I currently use a Moses 873 /483 with a 75cm mast on a Blue Planet 98L SUP board. Should I go with the 1100 front wing with the 710 fuselage and 470 rear wing to get the better glide action between wave sets?
