Wing

The Droid is not just a wing dedicated to hardcore freestyling. Its qualities which allow freestylers to string together moves are also assets for beginners. Compactness, power on command, accelerations and lightness make it a wing which is suitable for all those who want to progress quickly.

Because of its Freestyle program, the Droid option is too often neglected by other users, especially beginners who thus deprive themselves of qualities essential to a rapid progression. Indeed, what makes it a very good wing for linking maneuvers and tricks, is precisely what beginners need:

A super compact shape to avoid touching the water with the tips, which is very common when starting out.
A formidable power in a contained format: you can pump easily and generate incredible power, exactly what it takes to take off when you lack a little technique.
A light wing in hand which pivots very easily to facilitate the learning of maneuvers.
Torque to take advantage of each gust with a controlled top speed to accelerate without being overwhelmed.

The Droïd is also the ideal wing for learning to wingskate or mountainboard before getting into the water. You can multiply the transitions on land in small spaces without any risk. In this exercise, the compactness of the Droid is a huge advantage. All the progress on land acts as a powerful catalyst for your progression on the water.
