very rough - from these pictures
Imagine pairing it with 425 stabilizer and it could be a nice high speed wing with decent lowend
Kind of race setup for 200+ lbs non-racers

...or imagine 720 was available without the tail and fitting 647 fuselage. Again paired with 425 stabilizer it’d be such a nice thing

Gunnar,
if you had a chance to ride the 420 or 425 race stabilizers paired with a surf wing, do you mind sharing your feedback on that?

The 720 will fit the surf fuseage? I thought there was a compatibility issue ie: 683 vs 683s

Moses told me it fit the Onda fuselage and this is why i’m ordering one. I will sell my kite foil 647 with 590/550 and keep just the Onda fuselage with 633 and 720 wing. At first i will use my 483 stab but later on i will probably get a race stab or 450 i don’t know.

Moses quietly retired 2018 windfoil line of 838 fuselage, 683 and 639 wings. I can't imagine a good reason and how someone could justify making such incompatible setup but life is too short for proprietary solutions so 900 windfoil fuselage can mount any of surf wings.
Still bugs me thinking how much the molds and production of 639/683 cost and how these could have been just compatible with surf fuselage to start with (and give kitefoilers 639 to fly on a year and a half earlier)
And just as 633 turned from surf setup into amazing kite setup, the windfoil wings can follow same route too. I don't think there's any geometry restrictions or specifics for windfoil wings, the only difference I can spot is need of dedicated fuselage.

Probably huge success with 633 compensated enough all 683 and 639 wings market losses, nobody bought them as all wanted 633. Strange that moses product testers dont understand that 633 much better goes for kiting than surf
even as kiting wings market much bigger than surf wings

the 683 wing V the 683s wing
they are not the same thickness or weights, I was sent the windsurf one by mistake, the 683, no s, and it is heavy, cant remember how much heavier than the 683s, but a lot! way thicker as well, and of course the holes are completely in the wrong place for the Onda fuse.
what a load of confusion for a few hours
