- Hydrofoil • Re: HA front wing Kite Foiling experince ?AR 10 is too high for kitefoil in my view unless your style is depowered wave riding.HM, riding 10.3 levitaz R5 for years with only a 515cm² front wing. Can't say it's too high for my style. Even does ok in waves with a 6m soul going full slack lines and pumping. Just love that […]
