Hi guys just a Random Idea why couldn't someone make a wing suit top ( like sky diving) for down winding you lift your arms up for acceleration and lower them to ride the swell ? Any thoughts? Cheers Rich

Not required and would do virtually nothing most of the time as you are often going as fast as the wind.

good chance of drowning - be careful! I was pumping with an umbrella (about 1.8m2) - also nonsense but funny :-) if you strap the umbrella round the paddle somehow it will become the next foil-discipline ....

The video I linked to pretty much confirms what you said. Doesn't look like it will be the new parawing.
