Slingshot Hover Glide Quantum Front Wing Review

Slingshot Hover Glide Quantum Front Wing Review
Product Info: www.kitepaddlesurf.com/collec...
High-aspect pump wings are trending, and the Quantum 100 tops them all! The added wingspan and shorter chord length make this wing a true glider in the water, holding you up above the surface at ultra-slow speeds. Pumping the Quantum 100 is extremely efficient, allowing you to go farther than any other wing in the Hover Glide range. Our new favorite wing in the Hover Glide family at KPS.

At 03:09 If that is the 48cm stabilizer, it should be on the bottom of the fuselage. The 42cm goes on top. That looks to me like the 48cm, but I could be wrong. It could explain the diving behavior in turns.

[@KitePaddleSurf]

I apologize for the delayed response to your comment. I put the 48cm on the bottom when I run the 99cm FWing and I switch it to the top when I use the Quantum. You may have a point and keep it on the bottom all the time. That may help the diving behavior. I appreciate the comment and watching the video. I have been traveling a lot and shooting a lot of product review videos, sp once again apologize for the late response.

Thats so funny, it just shows how people on all this social media channels an KZbin camouflage pure comercials as a review... Showing an unrideable foil whilst telling how great it is... 😂

What is the speed compared to infinity 84 and 99? Is it a little bit faster or substantially? Thanks

[@KitePaddleSurf]

That is a great question. The infinity 84 is going to reach a faster speed for sure, but it's not going to be a whole lot more than the 99. If I were considering these two wings unless your super lightweight, I would go with the 99 because of all the advantages for light wind riding. I weigh 150lbs and I have had some super fun light wind sessions with this wing. The 99 is actually much faster than I anticipated for its size. Hope the response helps, If not feel free to get back to us. Thanks for watching the review. I have a full review coming out on the 99 this Friday. Have a great day

@@KitePaddleSurf thank you ,but my question was if quantum 100 is faster than infinity 99 and 84 and to what extent . I have infinity 99 ( learned wing foiling on it) , it is not so fast so I am thinking to buy higher aspect foil . Is it worth to buy Quantum 100 or there is no big difference in those two foils? Thanks

[@KitePaddleSurf]

@@maiazybaikina8203 okay, sorry I miss understood your question. I have ridden the 99 back-to-back with the quantum 100 in the same session. The quantum is definitely faster than the 99 for sure. It's probably just a bit faster than the 84 too. The quantum pumps better than the infinity series too. If you already have the 99 I would think maybe about getting the quantum 85 front wing. Low wind wing could be your 99 and when the wind gets good through on the quantum 85. If your looking to going to a one wing quiver than I would recommend going to the quantum 100 for sure. Hope that answers your question a little better.

what is the best setup on the QUANTUM 100 for a 240 older guy/

[@KitePaddleSurf]

I assume you're looking at the foil for winging? At your weight I would recommend a larger front foil for winging, if you're a beginner-Intermediate. A Good package could be our Slingshot V4 FSUP. This foil is going to make progression a lot easier, having that larger front wing will get you up onto foil easier. Feel free to reach out to us and give us some more insight on your foiling experience so far. Thanks for watching the review.

I am learning on the 84 and 99. Will try the 100 after I learn more skills. Would like to try the 100 behind the boat though. So A or B and the larger or smaller tail?? Many thanks

[@KitePaddleSurf]

@@ishtarluesby5269 I always ran the foil in the B position. The A position is intended more for windsurf foiling. As far as tail wings go the 42 rear stab that comes with it is perfect.
