Following the footsteps of the HY-Series, this board has the all round abilities in its DNA. The HY-BOARD is the ultimate combination of performance, stability and comfort and will suit the demands of beginners and advanced foilers alike.

KEY FACTS:
> Generous EVA deck for extra comfort
> Multiple insert options to fit any rider
> Bamboo / PVC Sandwich for extra stiffness and stability
> PVC and carbon reinforced Double Foil US-Box
> Foil mount plateau to ensure ideal angle and efficient tail kick
> Vacuum glassed EPS construction
> Balanced handle above the Double US-Box

OPTIMIZED SIZE RANGE

The 5'0'' is very maneuverable and light, making it ideal for more advanced riders looking for performance and fun in stronger winds.

The 5'4'' and 5'8'' are true all-rounders. They are ideal for riders with an advanced level or for wing-foil beginners who already have some experience and knowledge in other foil disciplines. Their maneuverability and carving potential are fantastic and offer the rider plenty of room for improvement and development.

The 6'0'' model conveys confidence and is ideal for beginners. Thanks to the higher volume, launches are easier, stability is excellent and the riding experience is impressive from the start. This board is also aimed at heavier riders and those who want to foil in low winds.

Our HY boards open up a wide range of possibilities for you on the water and are ideal for getting started in the sport of winging.

SHAPE

Two pronounced concaves from the nose to the center of the board help to accelerate for early take offs and ease detaching from the surface. When touching back down, the concaves align and stabilize the board immediately and the subtle nose rocker will help to avoid nose dives and push the board gently back to the surface. The slight plateau around the finboxes ensures that the foil is positioned in the right angle.The rest of tail is fading towards the deck to reduce the drag and allow a more efficient tail kick to get the board in the air.

With a slight concave deck, generously covered in cushioned EVA the board gains comfort and allows for more stability due to the lower center of gravity. The EVA will also protect the surface from damages and increase the safety, especially during the first wing sessions. The deck is equipped with plenty of insert options that will be suitable to fit any rider and style. This compact board is built in a resistant Vacuum Glassed EPS Construction with a PVC and Carbon Reinforced Double US-Box. The solid construction will ensure long lasting durability and will align with the high stability demands of wingfoiling.

Wing Foil Surf

The basic construction of a wing foil board is similar to SUP or windsurf boards. The core is made of styrofoam and provides the shape of the board. Hard foam sandwich panels are attached to this. Fiberglass, carbon or Kevlar mats are used as the laminate with the help of resin. This guarantees durability and stiffness. These properties, as well as the weight of the board, can be changed and adjusted by different proportions of the materials. 

HY-FOIL WING

WINGSURF HYDROFOIL

Following the footsteps of the HY-WING, the new HY-FOIL WING 1600 is designed to deliver outstanding allround capabilities in Wing surfing. With 2 different backwing options, the HY-FOIL WING 1600 will adapt to the needs of the Wingfoil beginner, as well as the experienced wing surfer. Within the development of this beauty we always had one goal in mind - improve your winging and just have fun while doing so.

With our Carbon/Aluminium Hybrid Construction, the foil combines aerospace grade Aluminium components with high modulus carbon wings. The result is durability and lightness within an innovative design, all available within a reasonable price level.

KEY FACTS
> Aerospace grade Aluminium Mast
> Aluminium Fuselage, CNC milled and anodized
> Carbon Wings
> Padded Alu Plate Connector (Double US Box): strong and shock absorbing
> Cushioned foil bag to store your wings, mast and fuselage safely and conveniently

The characteristic moustache form is driven by a bionic design approach. The central part of the frontwing is inspired by the wings of the albatross as the overall profile and sides of the wing resemble the fins of a dolphin. Nature has been selecting the best creations for a while so the aircraft engineers who have been developing this foil with us have been looking above and below sea level for inspiration. Combined with countless hours of simulation and years of experience we managed to find the sweet spot between stability, speed and control while minimizing the drag of the foil.

The resulting foil stands out through immense stability on straight flights, while keeping turning characteristics extremely easy and under control. The wing surface that is following the special moustache line will create lift through every moment of a turn or jibe while the rather pronounced profile will help to take off with the lightest of breezes.

The thicker profile of the frontwing and the rounded edges of the overall wing design, will increase the safety of use of the HY-FOIL Wing 1600.

MODULARITY
The aluminium fuselage is the key enabler to the foils' modularity. We will be offering multiple wing and mast options to extend your set all around the modular wing platform. The HY-FOIL Wing will be your reliable and versatile ticket to fly and improve your winging game. Fly-HY!

WHICH BACKWING TO CHOOSE?
The two different backwing options will make the HY-FOIL Wing as versatile as it gets: If you are a beginner, pump foiler or a rather heavier wing surfer (above 80kg) choose the bigger backwing with 282cm² surface. If you are intermediate level or above, light-weight (below 80kg) and are looking to push the HY-FOIL Wing to its top speed, go for the smaller version with 220cm².

Introduction
After testing the Hy-Foil and the Hy-Wing V1, it is now the turn of the smallest board from their current range to get under our feet. The look is very simple and the shape also remains quite basic. It is designed for all skill levels and offers a wide nose tip with a double concave, a large mono-pad and a lot of options for footstraps. The deck is not completely flat. The deck rails are standard.

Equipment
It is an already well used board that we could get for our test and the straps were not included in our package. These are included when you buy the board, but we weren't able to test them. However, this didn't stop us from testing the many possibilities offered by the different positions of the inserts, be it front or rear. In fact, as is rare, there are several rows of 5 inserts each. At the front, there is the possibility of moving the feet inwards or outwards from the board, giving a zero angle. In the back you can attach 2 straps for those who want to be in cruising performance mode. The decompression screw is located on the front of the board and requires an Allen key. The mono pad covers the entire foot area and there is a kicktail on the back of the board that can be used without straps. The leash eye is well centred as usual and the carry handle is located under the board in front of the deck rails. The handle is very deep and allows a secure grip of the board and foil unit.

Accessibility
It is the smallest volume of the range that we chose for this test, so it will not be suitable for beginners with a large body weight. But the general shape of this board allows for good balance in shallow water and standing. The lightest can even launch while standing up. The board is wide at the front and back and the deck is fairly flat, making it easy to position and move the feet to find balance. The wide and thick front section allows you to stabilise yourself before launching, but it also allows for more comfortable contact with the water in the event of a touchdown. The pad plays its role well and when using it without foot straps we were able to move our feet easily without slipping. The strap inserts are a good guide. It is a very accessible board.

Launch
It's not the lightest board we've tested with this volume, so it won't be its most interesting point. But with this width throughout the board, the double concave and the slight heel at the tail, the take-off comes pretty quickly. It has a good balance and the deck is comfortable. The very wide front section allows you to pump by bracing yourself and making the forward and backward movements that give the flight the speed it needs. This is a big plus for this Hy-board.

Comfort
It is a comfortable board thanks to its stability and the deck is comfortable. The mobility of the feet allows you to always adjust the position of the same to find your balance on the foil and the thick and wide front part ensures that you don't get a clear stop stroke when you touch the water. The pad plays its part well and we were never surprised that we had no control due to cramped feet. We feel most comfortable footstrap boarding, and the many different positions allow you to find the right setting for everyone. It's simple and comfortable.

Range of use
It's a little heavier than other boards in its group and won't necessarily be a light wind giant. But that's no cause for alarm. Remember that the foil has a big influence on the range of use of the material. The board was our playmate in all conditions, from very light wind where we tried to stay upright to very strong wind where we also tried to stay upright. In strong winds we didn't find it too bulky and intermediate to advanced sailors will benefit from this board. Its good buoyancy when standing still offers safety when cruising. Recently we had no problems with the size of the board in very strong winds.

Versatility
It is designed for as many sailors as possible, provided they have the ability to keep their balance. Even though its shape is a bit more purist than other boards, it is suitable for all kinds of activities. We could do long tours with it, but also ride long swells, surf, jumps and of course long full throttle rides as if we were in a race. The deck is comfortable and it will be an asset for all surfers who want to improve in the Wing. Thanks to its buoyancy, once again, you can plan long downwind blasts with it without running the risk of getting into a sea distress on the open sea.

Verdict
The Hy-Board is a nice surprise. It is versatile and accessible to most. Those familiar with the board will certainly find fault with its imposing and rather classic shape. But for those who want to progress, it's just the thing. The build quality also seems to be right, as the board doesn't seem to have suffered despite all our stresses and strains.

The test conditions
Wind: Between 8 and 40 knots
Sea state: flat, swell, waves
Spots: Almanarre, Madrague, Garonne

WING SURFERS MAGAZIN 04-2022 // HY-BOARD WING 5'0'' 2023

Short, quite wide and without many gimmicks, that's the DNA of the brand new wingfoil board line from Saarbrücken, which consists of a total of four models. The 5'0 is the smallest board, but also brings 90 litres onto the playground.

ON THE BEACH: The new Hy-Board Wing relies on a shape without a lot of gimmicks. In the nose, a V that turns into a double concave is supposed to provide soft touchdowns and early lift at take-off. The same applies to the kick tail and the slight rocker next to the foil in the tail. Apart from the slimmed out nose, the volume is distributed quite evenly throughout the board. There are plenty of footstrap plugs to choose from on the slightly concave deck. The outline is quite wide for a 5'0, the nose and tail are almost identically shaped. At 8.1 kilos, there is still room for improvement.

ON THE WATER: At Gunsails, they especially want to make wingfoil beginners and intermediates happy. So it's hardly surprising that the wide Hy-Board Wing with its 90 litres of volume is very stable for a 5'0. You can slip a little too far to the left or right when launching from your knees without immediately ending up in the water again. Passively with only wind pressure in the wing and a light pressure on the foil, the Gunsail board doesn't shoot off like a cannonball, but it launches very controllably and easily. Once in the air, the wide board offers a safe flight feeling, especially when flown with large or medium sized foils. For smaller and sportier foils, the width and the higher weight are not the optimal combination. When jumping, you also notice that you are flying with a relatively large board.

FOR WHO? Beginners and intermediates and heavier wingfoilers in flat water will find the wide, short shape easy to progress.

PLUS: stable, comfortable stance, many strap positions
MINUS: quite heavy, less sporty

WINGSURFWORLD 2023 // HY-BOARD WING 5'0'' 2023

The GunSails Hy-Board - low-priced, but also good?

The GunSails Hy-Board is in the low price segment and convinces with good features. But how does it perform on the water? Find out in the test.

In addition to the inflatable Hy-Flate model that we have already tested, direct seller GunSails also offers the Hy-Board hardboard. It is available in a total of four sizes (90/105/119/132 liters), and with a retail price of 1299 euros it is in the comparatively inexpensive segment.

ON THE BEACH: The size we tested with 90 liters turns out a bit heavier with a measured 8.18 kilos and has a fairly wide as well as very flat deck, which is provided with a good-grip deck pad. The three straps are included and leave nothing to be desired in terms of comfort. There are an above-average number of strap plugs built into the deck, so in terms of strap positions, you have all the options. Even a double strap in the back would be possible - possibly an option for sporty foil racing. The carrying handle is also well-designed; it is comfortable, large and appropriately positioned. The box for mounting the foil is somewhat shorter, here you have less room to maneuver than with some other board models. Tip: If you reach the front or rear limit in terms of foil position, you should take advantage of the fact that the GunSails Hy-Board offers an above-average number of strap plugs. In this way, you should be able to find a suitable match of foil and stance position with almost any foil.

ON THE WATER: The GunSails Hy-Board appears pleasantly stable around the longitudinal axis, only the rear wants to be loaded a little more sensitively when standing up, so as not to sink. Even beginners stand well balanced on the wide deck. The shape was convincing when starting up: Even if the board does not seem extremely snappy, it can be brought up to speed effortlessly. It gives no annoying resistance, against which you have to pump to get up to speed. In the air, you are also well trimmed on deck, maneuvers go smoothly and if you land unintentionally, the board brings you back into the air quite smoothly.
During jumps and tricks, however, the Hy-Board hangs a bit more lazily on the foot, and the higher weight simply can't be argued away during rotations.

CONCLUSION: The Hy-Board convinces with a good combination of stability against tipping, good planing behavior and a suitable price-performance ratio. As a board for enjoyable freeriding, maneuver practice and for first jumps, the model is absolutely perfect. Only those who expect a maximally agile and light riding behavior for wave and freestyle should find better suitable alternatives.

+ Easy; good planing; price-performance ratio

- nothing
