RYA Learn to Wingsurf Intro Session

Intro: The RYA intro to wing surfing course is designed for people that have had zero or very little experience with wing surfing before with the lesson split into 2 phases:

(Phase 1) Flying the Wing Ashore, Understanding Wind & Direction of Travel

(Phase 2) Wingsurfing Afloat

After this lesson the student should have a practical understanding of the equipment, flying the wing ashore, neutral position, powering on and off, stance, walking (on land) with the wing safely and sailing across the wind afloat on the water, basic turning and more..Please note * The time spent on the water is dictated by how much progression is shown with the land drills - ie: the sooner you grasp these the sooner we can put you on the water- if you have good wind awareness you will be on the water sooner otherwise we may have to keep you on the land for the duration of this lesson - just being clear here :)

FINAL & V IMPORTANT NOTE REF TIMINGS & CONDITIONS FOR YOUR ACTIVITY: We aim to provide you with the safest & best learning experience for all activities that we offer and within this we have a number of variables that must come together so that we can go ahead with any of the activities we teach, such as needing to time water sessions during low tide conditions for kitesurfing or e foiling tuition, having enough wind & the correct wind direction for both wing foiling & kitesurfing lessons, + high tide conditions for wing foiling lessons, not too much wind for paddle boarding and of course waves for surfing (but not too big !) and more .....So, please understand that all times on the day that you have booked are therefore ARBITRARY & open to adjustment (adjusting for tides for example) and or even reschedule (if theres no wind for kitesurfing for example) and that you have agreed to comply with this within the terms and conditions of your booking. We will of course inform you of this the day before your chosen activity as we assess predicted conditions and tidal information the day before so we have the latest information to hand. So in short, please plan your day to be flexible around your booking as we often have to adjust start times according to weather, tide and other bookings accordingly.
