Soon Laurie will just rename this group “Parawing Foiling” after the wings disappear from the market.

This place would be pretty quiet if not for parawings, embrace the revolution.

I have noticed the chatter has slowed right down on the foiling pages 😬probably could just have one forum titled foils at this rate.

they won't. at least, not anytime soon. many of us do not like PWing.i was so happy to get away from bars and lines when winging came out.

I think it was the head of Cabrinha who recently said that if they had to allocate resources 80/20 that parawing would have 80% of their focus and winging 20%. It's hard for me to argue against pw being the future after hearing that.

My vote would be to keep PW within the winging forum.

I think this is relevant. I agree that all chatter has slowed. Hype train feels like it has reached the end of the tracks.

This old chestnut comes up all the time.

My 2c has not changed agree to keep it as is, many still para and wing. Use Active Topics to filter what you want.

Laurie, if you’re watching, I wonder whether there might be an opportunity to rethink how the forum is structured. Perhaps we could bring all threads together into one main section, covering wingfoiling, parawinging, windsurfing, SUP, travel, etc., and allow users to filter posts by their preferred topics. That way, everyone could tailor the forum to their own interests while still having the flexibility to explore other topics whenever they like. Just a thought, but it might be worth considering as a way to make the forum more accessible and useful for everyone.

Please not. Structure work fine and using Filters to find ur thing is bad UI.

Easy enough, if you can create favorites.

Yeah I say combine the sup foil and winging forums. The sup foil forum is way too quiet. Separating out winging and parawing will just make for less traffic on both.


For the people that want more winging content post more stuff about winging. It’s a user generated forum so post what you’re interested in!

Agreed. And I like being able currently to see in a matter of seconds if there is anything new in any forum by scrolling the list. I’d have to have 14 favourites which just gives me a list just like the existing forum list minus a few so what’s the point?

Can have a tag called "latest" or "new", which would display the latest post regardless of category.

Still not as efficient (for me anyway) as scrolling a list of all forums and seeing no posts since yesterday in any of them, so move on to forecast and back to work. 10sec.

The windsurfing and kiting forums have multiple subforums and have worked well for many, many years. I like being able to browse through my subforum area of interest and ignore the ones I’m not into.

I think parawinging should be moved to the kitesurfing/foiling section. It is just a short line kite after all and is not related in anyway to winging except for a common board/foil base.
