Wingfoil Semi-Private Course

Meeting point: 1:30 pm, half an hour before the course starting at 2 pm.

We have developed a training concept especially for the Wingfoil that will get you “flying” over the water quickly and safely.

• 1st step (Wing-Handling): after a short theory session on land and the most important things you need to know about the material, wind and water, you will quickly learn how to handle the wing. You will learn how to carry the wing, steer it, turn it around and use it to “catch” the wind.
• Step 2(Wing-surfing): a short time later, we go into the water fully equipped with neoprene, life jacket, wing and a large surfboard. Now you can refine your handling of the wing on the water and surf for the first time in light winds and smooth water. You will be surprised how quickly you will make progress and be surfing independently after a short time.
• Step 3 (Foiling): after the 1st and 2nd steps, we put the wing aside for a while and concentrate fully on the foil and the wonderful feeling of “flying” silently over the water. With the support of our motorboats, you can enjoy foiling for the first time without the wing and wind. It feels a little wobbly at first, but you’ll soon notice that the board stabilizes.
• 4th step (Wingfoiling): Now we are putting all the steps together, you are learning to handle and steer the wing on the foil board and will soon be flying over the sea powered by the wind all by yourself, without a motor and almost without noise, very light and almost weightless. Now you are a wingfoil surfer! Congratulations!

You don’t need your own equipment for the wingfoil course. Just bring your swimsuit, sun protection and something to drink. We will provide you with the following equipment during the course:

• Wing
• Wing board
• Wetsuit
• Helmet
• Life jacket/ life vest
• Shoes according to preference

A course unit comprises a total of 2 hours with only 2 students, of which you have 1,5 hours of pure water time. During the course, each student has their own board and wing. 

You don’t need any special requirements or knowledge to learn wingfoiling. You just need to be able to swim safely and it is an advantage if you have a good sense of balance.

We recommend that you book a 3-day course, which is the average time you need to fly your first meters with the foil. If you need more course days, you can book them one day at a time at a reduced price. We also recommend that you take the VDWS Wingfoil license at the same time, as you will learn a little more about the rules of water sports and can show your level at any time if you want to rent wingfoil equipment from another school, for example. It is also an advantage from an insurance point of view if you have a “driver’s license”.
