Who invented the wingfoil?

There is no single inventor of wingfoil, as it is a sport that has evolved through experimentation and the combination of existing technologies in the field of water and wind sports.

But a brief history of the birth of this sport as a concept:

The birth of the Wing Foil took place in Hawaii, where a group of passionate local surfers ventured to experiment with the fusion of an inflatable wing and a foil to cross the waters. The vision behind this innovation was to harness the momentum of the wing to propel the foil and rise above the water, especially in low wind conditions.

The precursor of this aquatic revolution was the surfer Alex Aguera, who ingeniously designed the first wing prototype. After adjustments and refinements, Aguera and his team achieved a walk on the waters, thus discovering the possibilities that were hidden in this new sporting discipline. This maiden voyage marked the beginning of an activity full of emotions and unlimited perspectives.
