Seen it on Insta, very promising frontwing, but think I have enough frontwings for now

You've got way too much choice Jeroensurf, I'd never know which wing to choose .

probably ?1140 and that's if it even arrives in the UK , they're not so fond of us Brits after the Brexit divorce !

Nice looking foils man.

anybody winging on the W1110 right now?

cool, i just got one but haven't got on the water yet. first day with in in my possession it was blowing 30... then subsequent days zero wind. Riding the W1000 now, but I need a lighter wind solution so will try out the W945 and W1110. Also would like to have a setup for prone and dock starting. How hard could it be? haha

There's a bit more info on it in the Armstrong vs sabfoil thread.

I'm 82kgs and I can Wing it, prone it, and dock start it. Where this wing shines is efficiency and glide. It's great for going down wind and riding endless bumps. I can get it to turn but don't expect it to turn like the w1000 being it so wide. But you can still get nice long sweeping powerful turns but ultimately because of the span think of it as an efficient glider.


I've been loving it prone on the small days where it's only 1-2foot. I've linked the most waves up with this wing, you can pump it forever! It just keeps going and has a really low stall speed unlike the w1000.


I've managed to dock start it but I have needed a good 3 steps. I can do a standing jump of a dock to get this going. Lighter riders would most likely be able to get it going easier. Im Hoping once I get better I'll be able to beach start it and pump out to the lineup.

@Natho, i,m close to 100kg, so the different isnt a few pies, but rather half the bakery, but I know an guy who is 65kg and loves the 1110. He normally rides the W800 so his only complaint was that he needed to relearn how to turn due to its wingspan. I don,t prone or Supfoil but when I saw a review of the Art1099 winging it dis sound exactly like the 1110.
With the 399 it feels really fast and slippery. the 425 ads a bit more drag but a lot more stability and at this moment I prefer that over the extra speed. you just need a bit of shimming to fit the the 425 on the kite stab, but that is mainly my (lack of) skills coming short.
How to shim: I cut some out of 2 layers of a frequent flyer card that has been useless the last 2 years ,glued the 2 layers together and drilled holes in it. works great :)

I'm 108kg dry. The w1110 is awesome. (Paired with the old 425 race sabaliser).

it gets going really well, fast and stable.

Good discussion. I have a quick question. Moses / Sabfoil have introduced the newer high strength surf fuse to cope with the wider spans of their newer surf wings. Have they done the same for the kite fuse? The 1110 must place incredible stress on the connections.

no, but the wings fitting on the kite fuse have less surface.The 1110 has a wide span but is 1180cm2 so the stress is a fair bit less as with the lower/mid aspect foils as the 1100 (2100cm2!) that caused problems.

I ride strapless so i,m not a jumper but with close to 100kg I can put some stress on gear and haven,t had an broken or bended bolt with the kite fuse :)
I had a few spin outs, but so far I blame the mast instead of the foil and at one point something has to give a bit.

It really isnt rocket-science.just 2 layers of credit card glued together and cut to fit. then dril 2 holes :)

how do you buy more foils if you had to cannibalize two credit cards to shim your stab??

got my first runs on the W1110 yesterday. First impressions
-gets going pretty easily. i think the take off speed is 5-6mph compared to 7-8mph for the W1000
-took a few runs to get used to turning. turns decent
-glide through tacks is amazing
-speed seems good. i was in light wind but hitting 20kt pretty easily (i think). no GPS until later when the wind died
-very well behaved foil... easier to ride than the W1000. got on a Coast Guard Pilot Boat wake and was able to ride easily/indefinitely

good to know. i've spent very little time on the W1100 b/c it's generally overkill for the conditions here. I can see the W1110 being much more useful.

from the other day... sorry vid was originally cropped for portrait/phone

anybody visited SAb websites now?There is a new system kraken,stronger but not compatible with any mast and fuse in present
barely a year ago SAB presented mast 92 HS fuse 700 and 899/incompatible with 710 and 900/ and now it is rubbish.I would like to know what to do if I damage fuse I can stick 92 mast to ass
