Are Inflatable Wing Boards Legit?

Inflatable wing boards have come a long way and they are legit.  You want to go with a reputable brand that has been making inflatable SUP and other products as they will make a more durable board. Pictured below are two of the best examples we have tried, the Slingshot I-FLY V1 Foilboard and the Naish S26 Hover Wing Air Inflatable Foilboard.

Here are a list of the Pros and Cons of inflatable wingsurfing boards.

Pros:

• Light weight

• Compact for travel and storage
• Less likely to get hurt if the board hits you
• High volume for their size
• Feels like winging on your yoga mat

Cons:

• Some flex can be felt compared to hard boards
