Description

The latest addition to our collection of courses. This sport is a combination of windfoiling, kitefoiling and surfing. The Foil Wing is taking foiling in a new direction where the only boundaries are your own imagination. Jump on one of our wingfoil sets and be amazed by the freedom and the surf feeling in flatwater or in the waves. For the ones with experience in any type of foil sport this variation will not be too hard to learn.

It’s the perfect way to learn how to use the wind easily and safely. Indeed catch the two handles on the central strut and you will have the power to move forward. Let go of everything and you will stop instantly.

Two hours relaxed kayaking, fun weaving between the boats and then getting out onto the sea. Equipment was perfect and it was quick and easy to get into the water. Only issue was lack of parking nearby.
