The 2019 GLIDE WIND - NeilPryde Windsurfing

GLIDE WIND is our friendly, easy cruising and carving foil. Also suitable for waveriding in small waves and freestyle.
With an early take-off it flies at low speed, allowing first time foilers to feel safe and comfortable. GLIDE WIND is the perfect tool to get into foiling.
It is designed with round edges on the wings for safety and engineered so that the lowest possible speed is required for take-off.
Ideal for early foil stages from schools to clubs.
GLIDE WIND creates foilers. This foil is easy and, most importantly, SAFE.

I have this foil now for 8 months and I can really recommend it. It's low budget, very good quality build (as to be expected from NP). It's excellent as 1st foil and progressing into gibes. Very stable. The powerbox adapter is very safe. Fitted it on my old 2010 Fanatic Shark and it worked perfect. Even after hitting accidentally a few rocks at high speed, the box was still fine. So the adapter distributes the forces well. I now have the foil fitted on a deep tuttle box on my new board using the available deep tuttle adapter. Also initially I had the small wing, and purchased the medium wing (a bit bigger) just to explore that option. I liked the bigger wing more, is slower, more reaction time, more stability, which is good for learning. However, now, with better skills I am thinking to go back to the small wing for more speed. About speed: it's but not for racing. I used it in wind speeds from 12 to 20+ kts. Under 12 kts requires good pumping skills. I am planning another season with this foil and then will see what my level requires.

So Cool ! I've been waiting for this kind of "freeride foil" for a long time. I'm sure lot of people will finally get into windfoiling thanks to this product. Looking forward to test it in a few weeks now ! ;-)

Hi, for a beginner, would you say it’s sensible to try this foil with a 135 hydrofoil board? Or is a flight AL a better choice? Thank!

Is there a adapter for the two us-box system?

Is it possible to fix this new front wing on the old 2018 NP aluminum foil ?
