New reflexed wing brilliant for lightwind wing-foiling. Unbelievable stability and slow stall speed through the turn makes learning gybes and tacks easier, giving newer riders confidence to try more manoeuvres and progress quickly. Smooth carvy turns in prone for heavier riders and SUP foiling. Touchdowns are a breeze.

SONAR REFLEXED FRONT WINGS
North's new, patent-pending reflexed-camber foil section design gives the wing pitch stability all on its own. It’s like we’ve built a mini-stabilizer into the trailing edge of the wing which counters the downward pitching moment. The reflexed wing prevents your board’s tendency to nose up strongly when you first get going. Thus it eliminates the need for you to change your position to trim the board as you speed up, or as you dropin on a wave.
The Sonar reflexed wings have a relatively large surface area, which makes them highly controllable, with incredible roll and pitch stability. Usually, a large wing means more drag, hence less speed. But because you can position the reflexed wings on the fuselage with a lower angle of attack, they feel smaller than they are in terms of their speed range and responsiveness.
A reflexed wing give you impressive control throughout the entire speed range, with extreme top-end speeds unheard of for a wing that size.
