Can I also use my foils for Wing Foil also for Prone Foiling?Updated 2 months ago

Yes, you can use your Wing Foiling foils for Prone Foiling, but it largely depends on your specific setup. For optimal performance, a shorter mast between 60 and 82 cm is essential, along with the appropriate foil size based on your weight and skill level.

For Prone Foiling novices a foil with a medium aspect ratio and a front wing from 1000 to max. 1500 cm² is recommended. This setup provides the stability and lift needed for learning the Take-Off and the first rides.

But then advanced Wing Foilers often opt for smaller front wings, which can be too challenging for beginners trying to grasp the fundamentals of Prone Foiling. Generally you'll benefit from a foil with a good mix of Pump & Glide, as well as turning potential, this is typically found more in the Mid- to High Aspect range.
