First Impressions Out of the Box.
The all-new Eleveight WFS PRO impresses the moment you pull it from its bag. (The bag, by the way, is quite large and practical.) Its design is modern and sleek: the white, black, and yellow color scheme with a touch of red perfectly complements its Aluula construction. Once inflated, the canopy is incredibly taut. The wing is super light thanks to its carbon boom and Aluula. This makes it extremely stable. The wing's shape is compact and intuitive. It offers easy handling, and power is immediately accessible.
Take-off and Low End.
The WFS PRO has good depth at the front, which, combined with its stiffness, makes it excellent for pumping. You'll get out of the water quickly! When the wind drops, it stays in the air on its own. By placing your hand in the middle of the boom, your shoulders won't tire.
Freeride and Speed.
The performance is definitely there; I hit some serious speeds over 20 knots. It delivers excellent upwind performance, and the taut profile continues to accelerate when you pull on it. Super comfortable on the harness, fast, efficient-there's nothing to complain about!
Jumps and Lift.
I really had a blast with this wing. Stiff, light, compact, and powerful, it has everything you need to jump high and stay in the air for a long time. I'm not a freestyle pro, but I'm convinced it would be perfect for it. Personally, I enjoy doing simple jumps, maybe 5 meters max. With this wing, I felt teleported while maintaining power in my arms the whole time. As soon as you land, a quick pump gets you back up for another run or jump!
Maneuvers
On the tack, the WFS PRO passes through effortlessly. That's where you see how truly stable and balanced it is! As for messing around, no problem; its compactness makes it playful. It positions and turns perfectly in a Heineken or racing jibe.
Freefly
The impressions of lightness and stability are confirmed in the surf. The WFS in classic construction already performed very well, with only 2-3 movements where it wasn't perfect in freefly. Here, with the WFS PRO in Aluula, I felt a clear improvement. At no point did it bother me during offshore swell surfing or pumping phases to get back to shore on small waves. It's completely forgotten when you hold it by the freefly handle! Otherwise, you can maintain some power by placing your back hand at the front of the boom.
A word from Philippe Martin, Eleveight Founder.
Stiffness and Handling Thanks to Aluula.
Philippe Martin explains that the WFS PRO incorporates Aluula material, known for being both extremely lightweight and stiff. This significantly improves the wing's stiffness. It offers optimized freeride performance. This material delivers impressive characteristics: a weight reduction compared to traditional Dacron and enhanced stiffness.
Ergonomic Carbon Boom.
The WFS PRO's mini-boom is now 100% carbon, reducing its weight. The new ergonomic shape allows for a comfortable and intuitive grip, limiting fatigue during long sessions.
Performance in All Conditions.
The WFS PRO is optimized to guarantee exceptional performance in all conditions. Whether in light or strong wind, the wing stands out for its ability to generate power while offering easy drift, essential when moving through waves.
Aluula Characteristics.
Lighter material than traditional Dacron, overall weight reduction, increased tear and tensile strength, better profile hold ensuring long-term performance, and unparalleled stiffness.
Key feedback.
The WFS Pro marks a real evolution compared to the standard WFS. Aluula brings stiffness and lightness that are felt in every aspect of riding: more efficient pumping, higher jumps with more lift, and significantly improved freefly. The carbon boom completes the package with an intuitive grip and contained weight. Oscar particularly highlights the wing's versatility, capable of performing equally well in pure freeride, jumps, or swell surfing, without notable compromise. The WFS Pro is for riders who want a step up in terms of ride feel and performance.
Who is the WFS Pro for?
✅ The WFS Pro is for you if:
- You are looking for a high-end, versatile Aluula wing.
- You want to progress in jumps and freestyle wingfoil.
- You practice freefly and want a wing that you completely forget about.
- You are looking for freeride performance: speed, upwind performance, comfort.
- You ride in varied conditions, from light to strong winds.
Look elsewhere if:
- If you're new to wingfoil, the standard WFS in Dacron will be more accessible and forgiving.
- If your budget is tight, the standard version already offers excellent performance.
- You're looking for a wing exclusively focused on pure wave riding.
Verdict
The Eleveight WFS Pro 2025 is a refined wingfoil wing that fully leverages its Aluula construction and carbon boom. Its lightness, stiffness, and compactness combine to deliver top-tier performance in freeride, jumps, and freefly. It lifts off the water easily, accelerates continuously when powered, stays airborne in light wind, and is completely forgotten when surfing. Maneuvers are natural thanks to its balance and stability. For intermediate to expert riders who want a versatile, high-end wing without compromise, the WFS Pro is a premier choice.
