Forward Draft Wing Design
We are fired up on Wind Wing! Our new UFO wing captures all this enthusiasm with its lightness, performance, and durability as the key design parameters. For us winging is a complete game changer, it turns most mediocre conditions into your best day on the water. We are so psyched to develop wings that will be part to push this fantastic sport forward.
When we designed the UFO, we set out to create an all-around performer designed for super smooth, fun riding. The highly rigid structure facilitated by a V-shaped leading edge and long central strut provides effortless handling, lightweight, and easy control. The profile is designed much similar to that of a windsurfing sail, with forward-focused power delivery and negative leach that release excess power. Two separate semi-rigid handles offer a seamless connection to the wing. The handles are positioned for different rider options and are intuitive to use in all transitions and moves. A one-pump system allows you to inflate the wing quickly in one go.
Maximize your time on the water with the trademark Simmer Style quality and performance of our UFO!

The wind range is given to you as an indication. The wind range varies for each rider depending on the level of skills, physical strength, and on which board and foil you are riding.
Semi-Rigid Handles
Semi-rigid handles for direct connection to your wing. Our unique lightweight solution offers boom-like comfort and control with direct steering. Each handle is 45 cm long for maximum adjustability.
// Angled Panel Layout
The angled panels improve shape distribution.
// Negative Wing Tips Angle
The negative wing tips allow us to tighten up the leech, providing a more reactive power delivery. When more of the surface area is actively providing power, you can choose a smaller wing.
One Point Inflation System
Quick and easy inflation of the wing through one valve. This also allows you the keep the strut inflated if needed.
Leading-Edge Dihedral
The leading edge tapers from its center maximum towards the wing tip in a dihedral across the wingspan. This creates a wing that drives upwind with ease, then flags in neutral with amazing stability and balance.
Carry Bag
The UFO wing comes with a compact backpack. It is equipped with mesh sides so your wing can dry up when in storage.
