At North Coast Wetsuits (NCW), adding wing foiling and foiling gear to the product range wasn’t some sudden trend chase—it was simply the next logical step in a journey that’s been evolving for years.

NCW’s Roots in Wind Sports

NCW has long had strong roots in wind and foil sports. While many know the brand for premium wetsuits designed for UK conditions, the connection to wind-powered disciplines runs deep. Team riders and ambassadors have spent years immersed in windsurfing, SUP, surfing and more recently, a growing array of foil sports.

From wave sailing sessions to experimenting with the latest hydrofoil setups, foiling progression has always been part of the NCW DNA.

As watersports continue to evolve, wing foiling has emerged as a natural crossover. It borrows the wind knowledge of windsurfing, the board feel of surfing and the floating sensation of hydrofoiling, all while offering a more approachable entry point than some other wind sports. You can ride in lighter winds, explore flatwater cruising, carve swell lines offshore or even progress into freestyle and wave riding. For UK riders especially, it opens up more usable days on the water and a wider range of locations.

Real Riders Who Fly

Because NCW is run by real riders who actively participate in these sports, the decision to offer wing foiling equipment came from hands-on experience rather than spreadsheets and trend reports. The team understands what works, what lasts and what genuinely helps riders progress. That’s why NCW now stocks a carefully curated selection of wing foiling gear from brands they trust and believe in.
