The WIP Wing Belt 2.0 is a waist anchor belt designed for wing-foil. Its function is to serve as an anchor point for the board leash at the waist or hip area, as an alternative to the ankle leash — a configuration preferred by many advanced foilers who seek more freedom of movement on falls and less risk of foil strike on legs.

Construction. High-tenacity nylon belt with quick-release and adjust buckle. Reinforced anchor point (D-ring or eyelet at lumbar/hip position) to connect the board leash securely. Interior padding in contact areas for comfort in long sessions. Continuous adjustment for different waist circumferences. Worn over wetsuit or impact vest.

In the water. The waist leash offers advantages in foil falls: the higher anchor point on the body (hip vs. ankle) changes the geometry of the fall, reducing the risk of the foil hitting the legs when the leash snaps taut. For advanced foil riders, downwinding, and sessions with chop, it's a configuration many adopt as they progress. It connects to the same board leash — only the anchor point on the body changes.

Wing Belt 2.0 — how we see it at El Niño Mallorca. When starting wing-foil, the ankle leash is the standard. As skill level rises and falls become more dynamic, the Wing Belt 2.0 is the natural evolution. Combine it with the Wing Board Leash (#3888) or the Wing Board Leash + Dampener Pack (#3893) for a complete system. If you have questions, message us on WhatsApp or stop by the shop in Pollença.
