Wing Surf World Magazine

Really well done, imho.

Digital format works well and makes sense. No horrible plugins to load. Also seems like a sustainable size and scope so that it could keep going as a side hustle for a magazine or even just a good editorial who can sell ads.

My reading of this should also signal that yes, it’s true, you have all gotten to me. I have a 5m swing on the way. Haha.

Nice  ;D

I guess hand wing and hand kite lost. We are wing surfers

Guessing that Armstrong wing was designed by Ozone guy. Looks a bit like one.

DW, it will always be a wing ding to me in your honor  ;D

Although it is confusing with windsurfing, at least it sounds cool.  We won’t have to live down something like SUP. lol

The Association Wing Riders is posting about their upcoming review of all wings happening now.

I contacted them to suggest they test wings with a harness, not just without. I think harness users would have a different opinion on what wings work best for them.

They basically told me to piss off, a harness is useless

So beware reading reviews done by people with this attitude.

Beasho

I trust you DW.

I read your advice to put on a harness "So you can stop worrying about the wing and worry about your feet."

Voila.  Problem sovled then I went flying off the front  :o

Sounds like a traditional surfer that has NO idea the benefits of a harness or switching feet (for that matter).  Windsurfing with a harness in flat water you could last for 4 to 5 hours without falling over in total exhaustion.  When wave sailing and you had to be out of the harness you would only last 1 1/2 to 2 hours.  But half of that time was resting when you got sail back out to sea.
