The introductory lesson is the perfect way to discover whether wingfoiling is right for you. Without committing to multiple lessons right away, you can get to know this fast-growing watersport in a safe and accessible way. After the lesson, you can decide for yourself if you’d like to continue with a follow-up course.
A solid foundation is essential to head out on the water with confidence and get the most enjoyment out of wingfoiling. During the introductory lesson, you’ll learn the first key basic skills, such as safety, equipment handling, and how to control the wing on the water.
After the lesson, you’ll have a clear understanding of the sport and know what it takes to progress further. From experience, we know that it takes multiple lessons to truly get the hang of wingfoiling — but this lesson is the perfect first step.
Experience the stoke of wingfoiling for yourself!
You start by preparing the wingfoil set. Next, there will be an explanation of the equipment you'll need and what each part is for. You'll learn how to use the wing and how to hold it in the correct position before heading out onto the water.
Once you have control of the wing, you'll go onto the water with a board and learn to position the board at a 90-degree angle to the wind. After that, you'll grab the wing and take your first meters while kneeling. You'll be riding a board with side fins and not yet using the hydrofoil.
Getting up on the board is the next step to take. You’ll learn where to place your feet and how to stand stable on the board with the wing in your hands. The goal is to learn to return to where you started. You'll be riding back and forth on a board with side fins, but without the hydrofoil for now.
A wing lesson will proceed with a minimum base wind of 10 knots for the first lesson, and for the second lesson, you'll need around 13 knots as the base wind. For the third lesson, to really get up on the foil, you'll need at least 15 knots as the base wind. We also give lessons with gusts of up to 30 knots. The wind direction must be onshore.

Swimwear, surf shoes, and a towel, sunscreen, and sunglasses, something to drink, and an energy bar. We'll take care of the rest! The wetsuit, impact vest, helmet, and lycra are all included in the price.
The day before your lesson begins, you will receive a text message and an email confirming whether your lesson is approved or canceled. We make this decision based on wind speed, gusts, direction, and safety.
