These were just released. Saw a few of them in person last week and they look very well made. Didn't ride them, but people were riding very small sizes for the given wind (and riding them very well). Hard handles, very lightweight, no windows. Never ridden a Reedin wing, but these looked very nice. Theres also a 3 strut version 7-9m.

Yeah, I liked the look of them too, but in their video the trailing edge looked flappy???
We're they like that live?
Unreal wings.
Just picked up a 3.0 which I used exclusively for the last 10 days of a Baja trip.
Excellent grunt, smooth, and very easy to manage.
I like riding swell, and this so far is my favorite wing.
I'm surprised there isn't more hype about them
Best wings for me i've ridden since 2019 ;-)
Great overall handling with a lot power per size and really outstanding for me is the acceleration, for example after tacks, which i have not experienced before with other wings i've tested.
And the low weight: My conventional built Supernatural in 4.5 was lighter on the scale than a 4.2 Allula from another brand I've tested.
After riding them in sizes 3.8 , 4.5 and 5.2 for half a year i've also got the SSD 7.2 for the desperate low wind conditions. This wing impresses me even more (feels small and has an amazing wind range).
After beeing pleased with them, i will order a 2025 quiver (and hope they do not change too much with the SSD-model, as i can't imagine what to improve with this wing). And although they recommend the SSD 8.0 for my 90+ kg i will again order the 7.2 SSD as this was perfect for my "low wind scenario".
I used the 2024 3.8 for a few hours and it seemed like a very good wing. As far as I understand, they are discontinuing the Aluula model because the standard 2025 model has improved even more and they don't see any significant gains compared to the Aluula model. Which is incredible.

Used my 5.2m once and all good, now see what longevity/bagging is like.
When i first rigged them up and felt the low weight i was also a bit worried if this is on the cost of durability or longevity. Riding them now since March and probably 80% of the time one size (5.2) which still looks good (no signs of wear) and more important i can't recognise any loss in performance (and in previous years i sometimes had to exchange my main wing midseason due to deteriorating low end).
Being using the 5.2 for a couple sessions now. Tacks are very easy with this wing. It's also super powerful, gusts hit it and it goes, kind of rips my arms out of my socket. I do have some issues reengaging the wing after lufting it, takes a bit more time, but I am still getting used to the wing after many years using cabrihna mantis.

I had a similiar experience with my first trials on the Supernatural.
With my 90+kg i had always inflated to the max. recommended psi with all wings before. Therefore started with 8 psi in the Supernatural (also 5.2 - recommended 6-8 psi). In the high end additional gusts were not dampened easy. Went down to 7 psi and this step was magic. Couldn't recognise any loss in the low end but overpowered and gusty conditions are a walk in the park now. Since then i go with 7 psi in any conditions , also in lighter winds.
Maybe it works also for you (or maybe even better closer to 6 if you are lighter than me)?

I am around 80kg and yep, I run it max psi at 8. I will have to give 7 a try to see what happens. Thanks!
I asked Reedin Customer Service about reduced pressure, saying I am 88kg wet, just got 5.2m and getting 4.5m. They replied - "The reason is that the pull of a gust will be a little less heavy for you. The wing wil become a little more forgiving. As you are in the average/heavy weight range I would not recommend it and keep the wing on 8psi for maximum performance. If conditions are too heavy for your 4.5 you might want to have it a bit lower, or get a 3.8 ;)".
After only 2 sessions with 5.2m I deflated a bit on land and pumped. Felt just as powerful so'll try 7psi next time too.
I had reedin wings a couple seasons back and they are great wings. They do seems to measure size differently than other brands though, my 3.6 was visibly equal or larger than an F-one 4.2 side by side.
Today I was told by a reputable shop that does good reviews that the Supernatural is superior to the Ozone Flow in terms of durability, neutrality and upwind performance. Which is surprising to me.

The spam they publish is really compact compared to other brands
My 5.2 is very similar span and plan to Armstrong 5.3, didn't compared dihedrals
I was able to ride the SuperNatural in various conditions over several weeks in order to put together this review, I should also add that I am not a sponsored rider and I don't work in the foiling or watersports industry, I just like to try gear and make videos about it.

Your review encouraged me to buy, and pleased after two sessions. Mackite said the sheeting angle is because the pistol grip has the strut further away from the front hand, bit confusing to start but I quickly adapted. Also found downwind slightly helps light wind pumping, circular pumps helped too, maybe 2 knot lower end than my older 5m

Yeah they take 2-3 sessions to get used to the sheeting angles. I'm hoping this years iteration improves the tack as it tacked like a wave wing (flat overhead) and I prefer wings that tack like the Duotone Slick and don't mind flying on their side through the tack. So it will be interesting to see if they can improve that element in this years wing.
