]I would like to get a Wing for my children to share and play with on a Sup and then hopefully progress with a foil.
I have a 5m Gong original which is to big for them as it hits the water on a sup. What size would you advise and what wind will it work in?
1.41m 9 years old 30kgs
1.54m 12 years old 45kgs
Gong for example has 2m, 3m & 4m. I'm keen for them to go out in lighter winds to begin with but would a 2m only work if it was blowing hard? - or due to being light will they cruise along?

My 9 and 11 year old are able to use my f-one 5m. They just need to hold thing wing overhead more. I am super excited to get my kids into wingding instead of kitesurfing. Sooo much safer. We have been using an inflatable sup. They have perfected they're beach airs already with the wing.

Yeah, maybe I'll try again. I just presumed it would be way too big. But they could keep it high and dip it in and out of the wind. I'll give it another go with the 5m.
