Winging with the new Lift Havoc wings?

Hey there! I currently ride the Lift 120HA and 150HAX wings when winging. I am interested in getting something lower aspect to ride (more surfy/carvy) and curious if anyone has been using the new Havoc wings (121 or 148) for winging and any thoughts/advice?? Thanks!!

awesome - thanks for the reply - will have to give them a try…, now - what size do I get if I can’t buy both?! I am about 87kg - ride in the gorge mostly, so usually have decent wind…

Which setup in the silk range is the GOAT?

850/132 is my goat setup as long as I have enough power.

But If I was going for a single foil quiver it would probably be 1050/132. I just rode this setup two back to back days, one super powered in head high waves and the next day way underpowered in tiny windchop. Super fun in very diverse conditions.

Your new AFS gear looks incredible!

I ride a Lift Foils setup (150HAX, 90HA, 26X Carve, 32” M2). I’m really interested in the next generation of equipment. My riding is mostly in flat water with winds between 12-25 knots, where I’m focused on going fast and feeling locked in—that seems like my next challenge. If I’m going to “mow the lawn,” I may as well do it at speed!

I’m also planning to do more ocean swell and wave riding this summer, so my obsession with wing foiling has me aiming to ride fast in the flats while also tackling bumps and waves in the ocean. It’s clear I’ll need two setups—and probably a bigger bank account!

Enjoy the new kit!

G’day Brian,

I just read your articles on the Florence gear over at wozel.com—great insights! Given my quiver and riding style that discussed above, I’m leaning towards adding the 110 Florence and a 20 carve. Let me know if that makes sense at my 87kg. I’m also open to adding a Havoc if you have a favorite in the line.

On a side note, I was just explaining to a non-foiler how rad the foiling community is compared to surfers—most of us have come through that sport, and this conversation is a perfect example.

P.S. can’t get AFS gear out of my head! I wish we had access to it down under.

Thanks in advance!

Cheers,
Scott

Hey Bryan,

Following up on our earlier chat, I’ve gone ahead and purchased a 20 Carve and have a 110 Florence on demo. I should be receiving both this week and plan to take them for a spin next weekend. When you recommended this setup, did you have an extender in mind to add some fuse length, or is it good to go as is?

Cheers,
Scott

Thanks for letting me know. Yes, have the 32” M2 mast already. I’ll play around with the extender and see how it goes with / without. Can’t wait!
