Thanks!

take your pick..so many choices these days. Well done to supboarder for testing this lot. Smik and F-one leading the way in wave riding. Free ride market is pretty open with many good wings available.

I contacted the guys from Supboarder in oct about a wing and asked about the Echo/Unit and they told me that Duotone didn't send a Unit so that is why they couldn't test one. There is plenty of good gear, but not every brand wan,ts to be compared with the competition...
I have Echo,s wich aren,t labeled as good starter wings. In a a way it makes sense because have more the tendecy to roll and flip over on the water as most other wings BUT, once you grab the boom they have a very positive controlled feel that as a windsurfer I miss a bit by the handle type wings. Because of that as a windsurfer I like them as a starterwing and for general going back of forth. When you want to catch waves...I would look elsewhere because then there are better wings.

Go the Smik.
Have not yet found a better wing.

The PPC wing out of NZ didn't win a specific category in the SUP Boarder wing test, but placed very well in all categories and I'd consider it to be one of the best all rounders. I am looking to trade in my f-one in for it as soon as I can get my hands on one. They are selling out fast!

Try an ENSIS wing if you live in Melbourne or Perth!!!

Why Melb or Perth? Not available elsewhere?

everywhere of course , just in case you want to have look and try them beforehand.

Don't think you can go wrong with any of these wings. Price probably biggest factor.
PPC outscored the ensis on the sub boarder review and surprisingly did way better than The A wing.
i am keen to get a bit more power and go out in slightly lighter winds than i do with my f one. But now that i think of it it will probably also mean i will be overpowered in stronger winds sooner too. here is their teaser video. Watching the review is highly recommended.

My thoughts....

Almost everything version 2 is pretty decent.

Grab something current and get your basics down and then go and experiment with other wings to figure out what you want.
