Another interesting offering from a paragliding company. A lot of good info on it on the website. Would have to be a bit more bulky to stow. They do say they use fewer lines and have vents to help deflate it so at least they have put some thought into stowing it. Would definitely be a lot more efficient and nicer to sail than a single skin.
Price worked out to be about $1700 aud for a 4.2m (excluding VAT) but then you've got shipping and import duties

interesting info their FAQ's

The P.T. is a Ram-air wing, which results in a slightly higher volume of material. However, even when fully deflated, the compact package ensures a comfortable downwind ride. Deflation time is minimized thanks to special nozzles integrated into the canopy, though it still takes slightly longer than with a single-skin wing. In our tests, we consistently managed to pack the wing during longer runs. For shorter, more technical runs, we keep the P.T. in our hands, holding it by the leading edge plastic reinforcement. That way, the P.T. is ready for the quick transformation to the upwind ride. This is where the P.T. truly excels, delivering outstanding performance that enhances the joy of riding both downwind and upwind.

Agreed! I'm going to sit on the sidelines for a few years and see where this all shakes out I think haha!

Well, I have been dreaming of this for years as the holy grail. I don't mind beta testing, better than watching! As much as I love kiting, I was getting a little bored at times foiling and we don't really have enough waves around here to get excited on a surfboard. I got my Dwing the other day and my board arrived on Sunday so now it's time to kook around until I feel comfortable on a bigger board. After riding a tiny pocket board for so long turning a big board will feel mighty strange.
