Finished your first lessons. What's next?
Looking to get into wing foil or finished your first course and searching for your own gear? We put together a set that lets you enjoy every session on the water and progress as fast as possible. JP-Australia X-Winger IPR, NeilPryde Firefly wing and Glide Surf 75 HP foil — a stable and wide board, a predictable wing and a foil that forgives mistakes.
What is in the set
Board — JP-Australia X-Winger IPR
A board designed to make learning as frustration-free as possible. Wide and stable — enough to calmly get up from your knees, find your footing and gather your thoughts before you start pumping. The flat nose rocker and tail cut-outs help the board lift off the water quickly without excessive effort, which makes a real difference in the early stages. The solid IPR construction handles the first weeks of learning well — water impacts, mast hits and the occasional hard landing included. Available in 122 / 133 / 144 litres.
Wing — NeilPryde Firefly
The Firefly is a wing that teaches rather than fights. Power builds smoothly and predictably — you can feel exactly what the wing is doing and respond in real time, instead of being caught off guard by sudden jerks. That means you understand faster how to manage power, how to feed it in during take-off and how to keep the wing steady in the air. The carbon boom gives a solid, comfortable grip without unnecessary strain on your hands. Available in sizes from 2.0 to 6.0 m².
Foil — NeilPryde Glide Surf 75 HP
A foil that forgives mistakes and does not demand constant corrections. It lifts onto foil easily — you do not have to work hard to get off the water. Once airborne it feels calm and stable, not twitchy or nervous with every small shift of body weight. The short 75 cm mast keeps you close to the water, which is a real advantage in early sessions — falls are less dramatic and getting back on the board is quicker. The modular NeilPryde system lets you add smaller compatible front wings later without replacing the whole foil.
What makes this set different
At the learning stage, every mistake costs energy and time. We put this set together to minimise those mistakes. The board gives you stability and time to think. The wing does not surprise you and lets you focus on technique instead of fighting the gear. The foil does not punish every small wobble — it forgives and gives you time to correct. Together they make a setup where progress comes faster, because your energy goes into learning rather than battling the equipment.
