After learning on the 105L board and now on 90L board. I can use the 90L from 3m to 6m. A little challenging tipsy in light wind but doable. Just wondering if worth keeping the 105L board for those few light wind days? Just wondering what other experienced rider are doing with either 2nd or 3rd board for different conditions?

I would just use the volume as a guide and focus more on the length and width as they are more important for making it easier once up on the foil.

I pretty much now use my 5 x 26 x 90L for all my winging and SUP foiling and i have a longer 5'10 for DW paddle foiling. If you are really just winging on it then really one board should do the job no worries and if you are already on a 90L then just work on finding the the right length that works for you. With the wing you can really go pretty small as you can always just knee start when it gets really rough.

I have a 2 board quiver:

- light wind board equal to my body weight in liters.
- over 18 knots I use my prone board that's half my body weight.

I am just about to upgrade to a 2 board quiver. I have been using the 6'5" 130l One foil sup but will have a 5'4"x 110l one wing board which should be touching down in oz any day now?

How is the schedule on those wingboards looking Paul. J, I am frothing so hard!!

Will be keeping the 6'5" for sup foiling ( I am 6'4" x 100kg)

Yeah getting closer, bloody shipping is slowing things down so running a little behind but pushing as hard as we can. Also feeling lucky we don't have boards on the ship stuck that is stuck in the channel overseas as that would be a real nightmare!!

135ltr for light wind days (and for teaching friends that all want to try winging)
99ltr for most conditions over 15knots. ...and for progressing the next year or so. Learning to foil tack.
