Lachie heads to Ricketts Point for a solo deep dive into the complete wing foil gear progression, from your very first session all the way to race kit.

Whether you are just thinking about getting into wing foiling or you are already riding and wondering what the path to racing actually looks like, this episode maps out the full journey: boards, foils, wings, harness lines, and mast lengths.

Topics covered:

Boards: why 30 litres above body weight is the starting sweet spot, and how body-weight volume becomes the target as you move toward racing.

Foils: the case for stepping down in 200 to 400 cm2 increments, why span matters just as much as surface area, and Lachie's own progression from the Axis 910 all the way to the Chubanga V3 570.

Wings: starting on a 5m single skin, when and why to introduce a harness line (longer is better early on), and maybe controversial advice to skip straight to a full dual skin race wing.

Mast length: why 80cm is a solid entry point, how longer masts unlock forgiveness in chop, and when to make the jump to 105cm for racing.
