WINGFOIL LESSONS

Do you also want to float over the water with such a big smile? Then try a wing foiling lesson! Our lessons are made for complete beginners, but can easily be adapted to experienced kite/windsurf foilers. You first learn how to wing surf on a SUP so that you have mastered the wing completely. Then you will learn how to foil, behind a boat and then together with the wing. During our lessons we use a powerboat, so the instructor is always close by for advice and questions. And of course you can be sailed upwind again!

LEVEL 1:   WINGSURFING

When you come to wingfoil for the first time, it is important that you learn how to handle the handheld wing (your inflated sail) and a board. During this level you will learn to sail back and forth on a large SUP/windsurf board with a center fin, so you can learn how to ‘taxi’ upwind with your board. You will learn how to use your wing to steer and turn.

Land part
» Theory about wind and spot
» Practice how to control the wing

Water part
» Start and sail away
» Turn (Tack/Gybe)
» Upwind sailing

LEVEL 2:   FOILING

Are you now balanced on your board, can you sail back and forth without losing your balance and can you handle your wing well? Then you are ready for the next step: foiling. By practicing this behind the boat without a wing, you will learn how to let the board take off gently and you start foiling. Mastering the feeling of how to stay standing on your foil board and not immediately tip over.

With the foil board
» Pumping to get on your foil
» Keep foiling for longer periods of time
» Get back down on the water with the foil

LEVEL 3: WINGFOILING

On a real wingfoilboard we will again try to taxi and we will work towards letting the foil come out of the water by using the wing. Float a little bit at first, and then longer and longer!

Can you wingfoil well now? Great, then you can learn how best to foil upwind and make turns.

With the wing foil board
» Choose place to start (sufficient water depth)
» Taxiing with the wingfoilboard
» Pumping with your wing
» Get your board out of the water
» Foil!

Disclaimer: This level structure is not always equivalent to lessons. You might need two lessons in level 1 or do 2 levels in 1 lesson. Not everyone learns according to the same learning curve.  Some students will learn faster than others, keep this in mind and don’t be disappointed if someone is faster or better than you. With us, independency and safety come first and we adapt our lessons to that at all times!
