you're out in head highish waves with the Maliko200...now THATS some skill...Yesterday's fun level just went up a notch. Perfect wind and some chest to head hi surf made it super fun. I doubt I'll paddle for a wave ever again.

Thanks man, looks like it might work for me.clamsmasha: here you go, repurposing kite foil race boards with wing

Kaser: rad...your report is exactly what i am hoping for with the wing thing. What wind strength are you in? (for the 4.2 wing I think?) For riding other foot forward: in kite foiling, I mostly just ride with dominant stance, toeside/heelside -- but for longer tacks, you need to learn to foil the other way too. A time investment that kinda sucks, it's better to do it early, while still somewhat in kook mode ... gets harder and harder later on to go back and eat that humble pie once again.
None really. Well not the F One, the others aren't as light and the Duo Tone kinda twists alittle in the wind. Mine stays pretty flat. It has to do with the wing shape I'm told.How much attention do you have to give to the hand kite when you are holding just the front handle and riding a wave?
Yea, i may need to figure out if I can get the Iwa going. The M200 is pretty slow when you get speed going, I see the GL's may be the way to go. Most are using them and I just got a new mast I need to fit my (proto)GL180 to. Or buy a production GL that will fit without modifying my mast.you're out in head highish waves with the Maliko200...now THATS some skill...
I’m sure the GL will work nicely, mine seems to get up really easily at low speed. 210 that isYea, i may need to figure out if I can get the Iwa going.

Ay Steamroller,This video highlights the wave riding potential really nicely I think. {If a repeat, apologies}
In Maui, maybe one of them is you Kaser?
Once on the wave, wing just floats behind them.
They aren't changing feet, in straps, maintain dominant surfing stance.
This just happened.

I do appreciate that you guys are matching the pump color to the wing.
