No sorry. Basic details are regular version (update on current model) it's a little longer and a pro version that is super long and skinny. Available next week according to big winds.

That handle on deck is brutal. Will interfere while kneeling and wont help carrying the board and the wing. No idea what it the point of it

That handle is typical of Sup boards. Wing boards have handle on the bottom of the board. You just need to carry the board in a different way, not a big deal honestly. You need to have the wing in the downwind hand and carry the board on the upwind side putting the front foil on the shoulder having the board parallel to the surface of the land/water. Easy.
i agree it won't help you carrying the board with the wing but when on knees you won't feel it at all.

I have a deck handle on on of my Appletree boards. It definitely doesn't get in the way of my knees or feet at all. That said, it's utility is also pretty limited as I only use it when the foil isn't attached to the board. Works better when you don't have a wing and can carry the board holding the deck handle and the foil (with the mast behind or in front of you). Would work fine when holding a paddle.
