Parawinging is the latest, exciting discipline to arrive in the world of watersports and we are rolling with it at our Queen Mary Sailing Club (QMSC) base from the start of 2025! You can take a lesson with us and/or buy the brand new Ensis Roger 3.0m parawing as well as downwind boards and high aspect foils from Starboard.
Click here or on the tile above for information on parawing lessons with us.
Aimed at experienced wingfoilers, parawinging uses a small, single-skin, non-inflated wing with 1-2m lines and a bar. It is best suited to a longer downwind board with a larger, high aspect front wing. The parawing can be packed down in seconds to enjoy riding swell/foot pumping then redeployed in an instant to revert back to wind power. Despite being aimed at downwinding, it is possible to foil across and upwind using a parawing.
