1310 and 1300 - for whom: these two very big wings are best for very heavy riders using them on the flat water or during downwinging.
Pros: very easy to lift up even on a small board and flat water.
Cons: Too much lift for me, too slow, impossible to turn. Unusable in the descent waves because they provide too much lift and cant keep up with the speed of the wave.
Verdict: I hate it. Unusable for me in the waves where I live. Probably ok if the waves are under 1foot but not for me.
PNG 1010 - for whom: for pumping addicts, great for both flat water and small waves
Pros: small enough to have fun but big enough to be able to lift up even on the flat water. Ideal for pumping exercise
Cons: Very slow, can't keep up with the wave, too much lift on the wave and hard to turn.
Lift up technique: wave assist or flat water start possible
Verdict: I love it. Great all around wing for small slow waves. One of the best all around wings.

HPS 1050 - for whom: a twin brother of PNG1010 made for people who prefer speed over pumping
Pros: what you gain in speed compared to 1010 you lose in pumping ability.
Cons: harder to pump, poor turning ability
Lift up technique: wave assist or flat water
Verdict: I like it. Great all around wing for small/medium waves. Little bit faster than PNG1010 but still gliding well enough.
55 L board wings
The following wings are smaller and require bigger boards to get going.
ART1099 - this ultra efficient ultra high aspect ratio wing is best for people who love long gliding in a straight line
Pros: ultra efficient gliding, easy to pump. Improved riding time.
Cons: very stiff and hard to turn, hard to lift up as it requires a lot of speed to get going. Does not work at slow speeds as it needs decent speed to provide lift.
Lift up technique: wave assist only, very hard long distance start with decent wave push required to gain enough speed for lift.
Verdict: I did not like it. I find it very stiff and unresponsive. Too hard to launch, I prefer playful carvy wings, this one just goes straight.

BSC970 - this carvey low aspect ratio wing feels like an efoil wing, very inefficient but easy to turn and carve
Pros: very playful wing, easy to turn and play around, a lot of lift makes it easy to launch.
Cons: very inefficient, a lot of drag, poor battery life, does not pump at all, poor gliding, requires powerful waves to keep going.
Lift up technique: wave assist only, very easy to lift up
Verdict: I love it. Great all around wing for medium waves. Feels like riding an efoil wing like Lift170 Surf..

BSC 890 - younger brother of BSC970, this is probably the smallest wing that makes sense for heavy riders with Foildrive
Pros: small enough to be playful but still big enough for easy launch, great in turns
Cons: low battery life, bare minimum of pumping and gliding ability
Lift up technique: wave assist only, easy enough but needs a power from the wave to push you up
Verdict: I like it. Probably a great smallest wing for foildrive use

AXIS SP 760 - ultra small wing for lightweight riders in powerful waves
Pros: I was surprised that I was still able to lift up and even efoil around but it's no fun at all. The wing is just too loose and does not provide any glide or pumping for me.
Cons: zero pumping and gliding, it sinks if you don't push the full power, poor battery life
Lift up technique: powerful wave assist, maxim speed needed to lift, difficult to launch.
Verdict: I hate it. It does not make any sense for foildrive use at all. Not fun at all, burns through the battery and does not provide any fun in gliding or pumping.

Lift 200SurfV2 - *requires Lift Cedrus adapter
Pros: Very carvy wing similar to BSC890 with a lot of lift, playful and fun, easy to turn
Cons: poor glide and poor pumping, requires decent speeds to keep going, a lot of drag and poor battery life. I need a big wave to keep going when depowered.
Lift up technique: easy lift at speeds, push from the wave is needed
Verdict: It did not work well for me with Foildrive. Obviously this wing was optimized to work well with a very powerful heavy efoil. When combined with a weak motor of Foildrive it did not feel right at all and required too much back leg pressure to keep it going. My back leg was tired after 10 minutes and I concluded it's not for me.
