KPS Complete Beginner Wing Foil Package
This is a complete package for wing foiling with a wing foil board, board leash, wing, wing leash, pump, foil, and all required hardware. Please contact us you want to customize the package with upgrades.
Wing Foil Board: As a beginner you will want a larger (by volume) and easy to use board. This will significantly help progression.
-Slingshot V1 Wing Raider - The Wing Raider XL was designed to make winging more accessible and easier for everyone to learn. The extra width encourages stability for taxing the board on water. The large single concave helps for early take offs and encourages natural lift offs onto foil.
- COMPACT SHAPE OUTLINE - This shape reduces swing weight and provides precise foil control.
- SHALLOW CONCAVE RAIL CHINES - Wanting to keep as much stability as possible in each size, Slingshot opted for a shallow concave rail chine that makes the board easier to climb onto and float on while waiting for the next gust.
- RAIL DECK CHANNELS - The rails on wing boards take a beating so Slingshot added rail deck channels for strength. This feature also gives you a solid grip on the rail while climbing onto the board.
- VERSATILE CARRY HANDLE - Keeping your board, foil, and wing safely separated during entry and exit in rough conditions can be a challenge so Slingshot built in a bottom carry handle.
- OUT-THE-BACK FOIL TRACKS - To get you on the water with ease and efficiency, Slingshot added one of their favorite features ever to the Wing Raider: out-the-back foil tracks.
Wing: Easy to use SlingWing V3
-Slingshot V3 SlingWing - Slingshot designed the SlingWing V3 to give you significantly more power per size. Using a smaller wing in the same wind provides the advantages of being more maneuverable with increased control while still reducing weight and drag.
- ELONGATED HANDLES - Slide your hands to perfectly place your grip without having to let go and release. Having your own personalized hand placement lets you achieve maximum responsiveness quickly and easily.
- ONE PUMP SPEED SYSTEM AND STRUT DUMP VALVE - Inflate and deflate quickly and efficiently.
- INCREASED LEADING EDGE AND STRUT DIAMETER - Provides a stiffer and more powerful ride.
- Includes Wrist Leash
Foil:
-Armstrong S1 Complete Foil - Redefining how we learn to foil, the S1 foil range delivers remarkable stability, ultra-low flying speed and an instantly intuitive feel to make the first step into foiling as accessible and forgiving as possible.
- An ultra easy platform for first time flyers to learn any foiling discipline. Excellent low speed lift, stability and recovery from ventilation.
- Downturned wing tips increase rider safety and improve the efficiency of water flow.
- Proprietary Armstrong A+ System foil connection design offers industry-leading stiffness, durability and modularity.
Pump:
-Slingshot Kim K Pump - It is larger, taller, sturdier, and has more volume than a traditional Wing pump. Single to double-stroke inflation switch allows for instant change from high-volume / low-pressure inflation to low-volume / high-pressure.
Board Leash:
-Ride Engine V2 Recoil Leash - The cuff is slim and comfortable, the leash's coiled construction keeps it from getting tangled in your feet, and its extended length keeps your deck close enough to quickly retrieve yet far enough away so as to not be an impact hazard.

KPS Complete Beginner Wing Foil Package - At a Glance
Kite Paddle Surf is offering this great package for beginners with no gear and little to no experience. This is a complete foil package that includes the wing foiling board, wing, complete hydrofoil (just called the foil), wing wrist leash, coiled board leash and pump. All you will need is wind.
The most important size of the board for winging is the volume. Wing Foil Boards are sized in liters. So, the general rule for beginner wingfoiling is that you will want to start with a board that is about 30L to 40L more than your weight in kilograms. First calculate your weight in kg by dividing your weight in pounds by 2.2. So, for an example we use a 170lb beginner. 170/2.2 is 77.3kg. Then we add 40L (for easiest board size to start with) and we would have a board around 120L. So, divide your weight by 2.2 and add 30 or 40 to calculate board size. A larger board will offer more stability on the surface of the water for takeoff. The Wing Raider is a great beginner board so you can progress you're foiling quickly. The board gets off the water quickly and is durable. The Slingwing V3 Wing is an easy-to-use wing that will get you progressing from early surface taxis through your first tacks. Wings are sized in square meters. We can help you with wing sizing but in general beginners are in mild winds (13 to 18 knots) and will use a 4.5m to 5.5m. These wings are large enough to generate power but not so large to be hard to handle. Remember you need solid white caps as a beginner wing foiler to get on foil for progression. The S1 foil from Armstrong is a great foil set to start with. The foil can be upgraded as you improve by changing out the wings. This is the best aluminum foil set we have tested. In general, we recommend the 1550 is for smaller riders (120lbs to 150lbs), 1850 for mid-sized riders (151lbs to 180lbs) and the 240 for larger riders (180+ lbs). You can use either the 75cm mast or 85cm mast. Most people prefer the 75cm to start and then progress to the 85cm. You can start right away with the 85cm. Package includes a nice Slingshot high-capacity pump and coiled board leash. -DJKITE PADDLE SURF WARRANTY/RETURN POLICY
