I have not winged with them so my experience is from kitefoiling and general knowledge.  HA foils tend to have more lift than a lower aspect foil with same surface area and profile.  They have much better glide so they just feel faster and this also makes them a bit hard to ride well until you get used to the  "quickness".  Pitch control is harder but they are more roll stable (which can be good but harder to learn to carve tightly).  They pump and glide really well and therefore popular with prone and SUP foilers in waves and on downwinders.  They stall much more abruptly than lower aspect wings and seem less forgiving of a wing tip ventilation (at least in my experience).

So it all depends on what you are looking for.  If you are still at the stage where you are working on things like transitions or weak side riding, lower aspect wings are easier.  If you have it all dialed in and what something livelier, HA might do it.  If you are just getting into surfing waves and not super comfortable yet in waves, lower aspect is easier.
