How to Use Wind Sail and Wind Foil

In terms of usage, wind sails and wind wings are used to harness wind power for water-based activities. Wind sailors and foiling windsurfers are attached to a board (such as a windsurfing board or a hydrofoil board) and are controlled by the user to navigate across the water. The basic principle of using the wind to move forward is the same for both.

But wind sails are more commonly associated with traditional windsurfing. They require a certain level of skill to operate effectively, especially in terms of tacking and jibing. Wind wings, on the other hand, are relatively new and are often used in a more free-form style. They are easier to pick up for beginners as they offer more stability and are less reliant on complex maneuvers.

For these activities, other equipment are also necessary, such as wetsuit, life jacket, gloves, surfboard, sailboard, …… etc.
