Beginner Wing Foiling Course

Ready to Start Wing Foiling?

Curious about wing foiling and eager to get on the water? Our beginner course is designed to quickly take you from land to water, with hands-on support from our experienced instructors. Whether you’re completely new or have some experience, we’ll help you build confidence, master wing control, and ride the waves in no time.

Course Length and Schedule

This flexible course offers 6 hours of personalised instruction, which can be completed over 2 or 3 days, depending on your schedule. You can choose between 2 or 3-hour sessions per day, allowing you to learn at your own pace. Whether you prefer a quicker progression over 2 days or more practice time spread out over 3 days, the course is designed to fit your needs.

For students opting for the 2-day schedule, we’ll adjust the pace to ensure you complete a towing session and practice wing foiling early in the morning of Day 1, and continue with more water training the next day.

What’s Included

We provide everything you need for a smooth and enjoyable learning experience. Here’s what’s included with the course:

• Top-Quality Equipment: We use cutting-edge North wing foil boards and wings, designed specifically for ease of learning and maximum stability for beginners. You’ll also be fitted with Mystic gear, known for its comfort and performance.
• Real-Time Coaching: Stay connected with your instructor using our BbTalking Radio 2-way communication system. This allows for real-time feedback and tips as you learn, helping you fine-tune your technique while you’re on the water.
• Wetsuits Provided: No need to worry about the water temperature—we provide wetsuits at no extra cost to keep you comfortable throughout the lessons.
• JetSki Assistance: JetSki support is available from day 2 onwards at no extra charge. This added safety measure ensures you feel confident on the water, and provides an extra boost when needed. Optional JetSki support for additional assistance is available upon request.

What You’ll Learn

We start in beginner-friendly conditions with steady winds and calm waters, ensuring you feel comfortable and confident as you build your skills. Whether you choose the 2-day or 3-day option, you’ll receive personalised instruction designed to get you up and gliding quickly.

Here’s a breakdown of what you’ll learn:

• Day 1: Two-Step Progression

• Step 1: Safety and Land Training: You’ll begin by learning essential theory, safety guidelines, and mastering wing handling on land. You’ll practice setting up the wing and controlling it in the air to gain confidence before moving to the water.

• Step 2: Water Balance ("Taxi"): After the land session, we’ll head into the water, either on a paddleboard or a wing foil board. You’ll work on balance and learning the "taxi" technique, where you’ll surf on the board without lifting it off the water.

• Day 2: Towing and Water Start Practice

• Step 1: Towing Session (1 hour): You’ll start the day with a towing session, where you’ll be pulled behind a boat or JetSki. This helps you build balance and better understand board positioning before controlling the wing independently.

• Step 2: Wing Foiling Progression (1 hour): After the towing session, you’ll return to the wing foil board to further develop your water skills. This session will focus on mastering the water start and riding in both directions (Port and Starboard). We’ll also guide you through basic turning techniques and transitions, ensuring you become comfortable steering the board and managing your speed on the water.

• Day 3: Refining Your Skills (or continuation of Day 2 if on a 2-day schedule)

• Step 1: Towing Session (1 hour): Begin the day with another towing session to further improve your balance and control.

• Step 2: Wing Foiling Practice (2 hours): You’ll focus on water starts and gaining confidence while foiling, noticing improvements in balance and board control as you progress.

What to Bring

To make the most of your lessons, we recommend bringing the following:

• Swimwear: Wear something comfortable for a day on the water.
• Sunglasses: A strap to keep them in place is a good idea!
• Sunscreen: Protect your skin from the sun, especially during long hours on the water.
• Water: Staying hydrated is key.
• A Positive Attitude: Get ready for a fun adventure on the water!

By the End of the Course

By the end of this course, you’ll be well on your way to mastering the water start—a crucial step in becoming an independent wing foiler. With your newfound skills, you’ll feel confident and excited to continue your wing foiling journey, whether on your own or with further lessons.
