    This video compares two premium hand wings: The Takuma RS and the Duotone Unit Version II, both in 5.0m sizing. They both are comprised of a rigid handle construction, which undoubtedly has been a huge advancement in the winging industry for a better connection to the wing. Let's see what the local Hefner riders have to say about the wing.

    Yes! Thanks for the review of the RS from me too. Been waiting impatiently for someone to do this, especially as I have pre ordered 3 of them, so thank you! Sounds like they will suit me very well, so looking forward to their arrival.

      Did you get yours? How are they? I pre-ordered 2 some time ago and am expecting them in the next few days. Not many reviews around.

      @@saviofernandes5306 Haha! No, still waiting! Been a few weeks since I last spoke to the shop (he must be getting sick of my emails!) but will follow up again this week. I understand all of European stock was delayed while an issue with the bladders was sorted. Rather they did that than after delivery, but I have the patience of a child...

    Thx for the 1st review of the RS!
    One question; on the seabreeze forum someone mentioned that this wing doesn't like being overpowered. Theoretically it should be the otherway around, because of the firm canopy. Can you comment on this topic?

      I found as it reached the top of its range and more flagging was needed, it would start backwinding. For my style, the Unit 2 was easier to control when overpowered. In its range, the RS was more locked in.

    The Wing industry has gotten more complex this year. The introduction of hard handles has got me questioning my next wing choice.

    Realy enjoy your reviews , thanks from France. Is it possible that Monsieur Daniel " the Mayor " Nickolson can five us à review of the Triton foil he seems To be using ? Merci . There is nothing on Line about it for winging.

    • @TheOKKiteboarder
      @TheOKKiteboarder  2 года назад

      Steve. We are about to start riding the Triton and seeing if we want to review it. On this day he winged it just for giggles. It’s really not made for winging.

    very interessant vid.
    But when windy day, an accessory for the microphone would be welcome for your interviews.

      Yes. I had forgotten my wind reduction covers for this session. Sorry.

    4:00, "most wings "flap all over the place""?
    hadn't' heard.

    Y’all are still using that hand gesture? If you aren’t a white supremacist you should probably stop using that. If you are you should reconsider.
