Wingfoil — the combination of a wing sail, foil board, and inflatable board — works as a year-round activity for sailors, covering flat-water foiling, pump foiling on windless days, snow riding at Finse, and wingskate on the Oslofjord in winter.0:02 SEILmagasinet tested gear on the water alongside Jorunn Horgen, a former Olympic windsurfer and now head of the wingfoil brand Vibrant Surf, comparing her Vibrant Surf equipment against Duotone gear.0:57 Beginner boards tested ranged from 105 to 140 liters; the 140-liter board with a low mast gave the most stability and easiest entry in light wind, while the 105-liter board felt marginal for a windsurfer transitioning to the discipline.1:53 Both setups used a 5.5 m² wing, one with a boom and one with a handle bar.3:51 Horgen recommends starting on the largest board possible, sailing in flat water at 6–8 m/s wind, and taking a course rather than self-teaching.6:27 Pump foiling without a handle bar is described as genuinely difficult, requiring many hours, though a handle bar (skutfoil) lets beginners feel the pumping sensation quickly.7:06 Inflatable boards pack small enough to stow in a sailboat's cabin, making the kit practical as on-board backup gear.2:28
