Might want to consider a foil SUP and wing as another option that helps get around our shitty launch options in the summer.
Personally I'd rather take a 8m Peak 4 on short lines and water launch it (if I had a SUP for my foil).
That way you still get the foil SUP to surf with and could even do a crossover board that you could ride without the foil. And it would only be 7 feet long so it could be stored upright against a wall.
I'm very happy with my NP Glide Surf foil, very cost effective and versatile.
