Anyone tried the fanatic sky wing 4'7" as sinker / prone? Thinking of using as high wind wing option and for prone surfing (I'm at 90kg).

I tried it (110kg) and I could not even get it to plane. Had no troubles with a similar volume board that was 4'11.

Didn't end up going with the Fanatic 4'7". Couldn't get any advice the Fanatic was a good crossover, wing to prone. In the end I researched prone in more detail and ended getting a prone specific board. With winging I stuck with my 90lt board for everything

I've got one 86kg

used it twice winging. First time awesome, second time disaster (too sinky for the amount of wind/water depth). I find the 4'8" 60l much easier and versatile for what I like to do. I don't use a harness or footstraps. 4'6" is awesome when flying though
Intending to try it for prone and dockstarting but my friend says may be a touch wide for prone. but probably doenst matter for my level.
