My work is getting lost on the other forum so I’m sharing it for Gorge crowd.

thanks Grigor!
Have you tried the W950?
Can you compare it to the 790?

Haven’t even held it in my hands yet. It’s a tad larger than 790 and is higher aspect which would make it 790-1100 killer, just like 1100 killed 873

There is an amazing rider who wings with Lift 250HA and it’s close by AR and area to the 950

Laird - I have a 950 you can try out if you like.
I've been riding it as much as I can this Spring.
The only problem has been the waiting list, but with the arrival of the 940 and 945 wings, they have opened up alternative options for interested customers.

Tried the 940 front wing yesterday - it's amazing for wing foil.
Fast, turny, stable, great glide, never stalls.
What the 633/679/683 is for kiting - this foil is for winging.... except it has tons of glide.

List updated. Stringy mentioned making an adapter for 900 and I realized it doesn’t fit the kite fuselage. Pepi had the 900 in store so I could make a stencil of hole spacing.
Spent most of my trip riding 730/425 and I love the combo about as much as 800/425

| Added Phantasm wings potential to be used on surf fuselage for folks who want to have a faster option to their 683s/679

I have the Phantasm 633 on the 710 fuse and love it, will keep it. However for high wind and big swell, was wondering if anyone has kited the Sabfoil 940.
I have hard that the Sabfoil 679 is really not much different from the 633.
Thinking the glide on the Sabfoil 940 would expand the downwind swell riding fun over the 633.
All I want to do is ride swell.
Any thoughts?

679 has higher cruising speed than 633 because it’s 20% thinner and is more fun to ride. I believe 940 will be harder to turn on, it’ll feel like riding a railroad track. It will surf 2 feet swell but will be less playful.
I’d suggest trying 799 or Slingshot 730 for more speed and glide and stronger winds

I appreciate your suggestion and will do further research.
I ride swell by parking the kite directly above me, the 940 is a surf wing with a thin profile, yes tracky but good glide. Wingers love it.
I am looking for a foil for high wind swell and not for freestyle.
The 799 has a much thicker profile, perhaps too similar to the 633.
I have heard mixed reviews on the 679.
Once again I appreciate your suggestions.
