Wing Foil Wings and Parawings NZ

Wing foil wings and parawings give riders wind power for wing foiling, downwinders, surf runs and light-wind sessions. Inflatable wings are the most common option for learning and freeride progression because they are handheld, stable and easier for most riders to control.

Parawings are more specialised. Instead of feeling like a smaller inflatable wing, they fly more like a compact soft kite, usually with short lines and a control bar. Experienced foilers use them for downwind runs, swell-connecting and surf-style foiling because they can generate power to get onto foil, then be depowered, packed down or managed more easily while gliding.

To build a complete setup, pair your wing or parawing with the right board from the foilboards collection. Wing size depends on rider weight, wind strength and skill level. Beginners and heavier riders often choose larger wings for more power, while advanced riders may size down in stronger NZ coastal wind. For protection while learning or riding powered-up, consider an impact or flotation vest.
