Pressure Testing a Couple of New Wings

Based on the demo wing I used on Wednesday, I decided to pick up a couple of new wings yesterday - these are Ensis Wings.  I got the 6M and the 5.2M.

Here is the 6.0

And here is the 5.2M



The wing span is nearly the same on these two wings - the extra size on the 6.0 comes in the chord length.






0.8M doesn't seem like a lot, but the difference in wind strength required to get up on foil is pretty substantial.  They both survived the initial bladder twist and pressure holding test.  Anyone interested in a slightly used 6.0M Echo Duotone?
